This went around back during Desert Storm, also. The assets on that account
were frozen then, and I think they may still be frozen. I'm not too sure,
but I think HFM may have severed the ties with Hussein's front company back
during Desert Storm (I know they said that was one possibility to offset the
bad press back then). Also, was 60 Minutes' information up-to-date? I know
they are notorious about using old or non-proven statements to "back up"
their stories (remember the Audi debacle in the '80s?).
