Give a pizza guy the responsibility of 1.2 billion dollars and expect no funds to go missing is simply insane.
Grant Smith $45 million for garlic bread as a starter...
Pizza restaurant was a side business. He ran a an export-import of used cars business.
@@HusseinDohaHim dealing in used cars makes his resume even worse, hope you watched Danny Davito in the movie "MATILDA"?!?!
Grant Smith -"I'm soorry, No Refunds please!"😁
I’d love to see the digits in his account I’d guess easily still in the tens of millions
Where's the 800 million here's picture of mobile kitchen 😂😂🤣🤣
Ikr, I was waiting for spreadsheets and the dude pulls out Google Images. Smdh.
I wounder if those halal food truck kitchens in NYC, owned by this guy Haha
It's an expensive picutre!
Kaz K 😂🤣😂🤣😂
Is in Iraq now a-days.
How about 60 Minutes follows up on these old stories to tell the stories of what happened in the ensuing years
it would be too depressing.
Why would they do that. It would incriminate the very people the media protects.
agreed
We already know what happened. The money was never recovered. The U.S. spent 10 billion a month at the height of the Iraq war. ISIS came to power after we destabilized the region. And we made a whole generation of people hate us, which our politicians cite as to why we need to lose more money in the mid east.
Nothing happens. Nothing ever happens. “Justice” is an illusion.
"The Ever-Flowing Stream" lol ..what a poetic name for that company.
Spring
@@mwilliamshs they're literally slapping us in the face with it ..... but we continue to stay silent---just shows how stupid we are....
@@entertainme7523 a
Exactly what I thought.
Which really means the ever flowing money stream 💵💵💵💵💵👳🏾♂️💰💰💰👳🏾♂️💰💰💰👳🏾♂️👳🏾♂️💰💰💰💰
This is the most incredible news story I’ve ever had the pleasure of watching. That guy who got tortured by Saddam Hussein twice is easily the most badass guy I’ve ever seen
The judge
Mobile kitchen, in middle of war “ lets have a barbecue “
this whole war is a joke and a waste.
Not if Global Dominance is your Goal....
The reason Given then and now
(to the public)
Is always Immediate Fear of ??
(So called Unknowns)
Today's modern Version is
"Climate Change Misrepresentation"
(Green New Deal Objectives)
They (Media/Politicians) Claim(IT)
(complete change of Life for most)
Must Be Done To Save The Children...(aka.Emotional bait)
So that TRICKS people to think emotionally and not logically.
Not a joke for the many victims is it?
Not for the people chowing that 800mil. Well... They are laughing all the way to the tax haven bank so I guess you're right. We must be the punchline.
@Jessica Hicking governments are made so that the governers can steal the money
@Jessica Hicking yep, truth, both of them
Everybody got rich except the the American soldiers that were killed or wounded
Alex Villarejo Wall Street and the string pullers in DC see our soldiers as expendable tools. They only care about getting richer,the generals in the Pentagon are just as corrupt as Congress.
Iraq invasion was for israel
And the French got a massive roasting for telling the truth.
Also the countless people of Iraq who lost their lives and way of life.
@@warlockthankless5323 1,455,590 in the war and occupation of Iraq.
I remember when this came out. One of the many reasons the why world - and the US - hated George W. Bush. Rampant cronyism and corruption.
Bush was just a puppet for the true master of corruption during those years....Cheney.
Yeah, isn't Cheney still wanted somewhere for war crimes?
@@paxwebb No. Cheney is a bold leader. And what does Bush has to do with this? Some corrupt Iraqis stole Iraqi money. This was not US money. Because with US military aid, you buy only from American manufacturing businesses like Lockheed, Boeing and Raytheon. Not to buy "mobile kitchens" from Eastern European countries.
@Marcos 989 Bush senior and Jr own alot of land in Texas with oil in that land. Bush has ties in the oil market. There's definitely control of the market and other things if you follow the money and do alot of research. This is why I liked Bush Sr. He's a professional hustler, a very smart man. He got every lobbyist paid, and no one said a thing. No one is a criminal if everyone is an accomplice. This is not easy research, just an FYI.
@@paxwebb so only 2 guys are to blame? Don't we live in a democracy? 🤡🤡🤡
I have a picture of a food truck. 1$Billion.
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
😒wasn't even customized by gas monkey garage or Jesse James.
US officials signed off on that deal and must have known the truth & got kickbacks or were blackmailed in to it. They should be in prison for stealing OUR tax $
Your tax? The money was Iraqi money. When US government give you money to buy military equipment, they will give you only to buy from US manufacturing businesses. Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Raytheon..etc. It's like a coupon to shop from those businesses. No money will be given to buy shity products like mobile kitchen from Hungary or Poland.
Please, educate yourself.
@chakur25 we used to have far more diplomacy. Hitler had camps in 1932. We didn't get involved in WWII until after Japan attacked us at Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941. That's nearly 10 years. The entire world knew he was committing genocide, but we didn't have enough public support behind getting involved. It was after WWII when they began developing the military industrial complex, when the OSS became the CIA and when we began classified operations intervening in foreign governmental affairs on a frequent basis. From smaller operations like testing weapons to overthrowing governments and installing leaders loyal to the US.
@@williamthompson2141 we rule the world
Have to feel for Mothers & Fathers who gave their kids lives for this.
And then they show the fat leaders laughing and pocketing millions of dollars ..... truly sad
This is why now most Iraqis want Saddam back. The US have installed a bunch of criminal mafias in power to rule a great and a wealthy country as Iraq.
CBS/60 Minutes should do follow ups on great stories like these.
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 His face when they play the recording!
👁👄👁
The gold under WTC on 9/11 - was the mother of all heists. 18 years ago today. 11 tons of gold, more silver.
Read about that. Was this heist the real reason for the attack on towers ?
You are delusional.
Periculum Esse Really I never heard of that. No kidding
He’s not lying you can see it in his eyes. I’m sure he took some of it like a cool million but 800 that’s hard to hide.
So the NSA with all its powers can’t follow the money trail? 🤔
Funny how "its sovereign Iraqi money" but when they were killing over 600 000 of them they weren't so sovereign then, huh? And I thought my country was crooked 😂 😂 😂
All complete BS of course. A complete bust out of the US taxpayer. Tragically, that’s not anywhere near the worst part of this farce.
They were too busy reading your innocent emails,
That fella is so nervous. His eyes are blinking a 100 miles and hour!
This is insane . . . He asked him where did the 800 Million dollar went, and he showed him all kind of pictures which he downloaded from google. lol . . . What a joke!!
They gave our money to these clowns?
Diamond casino heist was the biggest heist I've ever participated in
What ever happened to this 60 minutes. This is investigating journalism.
identity policies obsession to please their leftist donors.
@@alexm566 people like you are insufferable. It's like people sho never shut up about the Kardashians
3:55 The most savage Judge of all time don’t @.
Smash that like button!
60 minutes -- the best thing happened to investigative journalism
his it possible that the u.s. officials were in on the heist? you damn right.
Mobile kitchen what did that run a 120 million
US envoy recruited a hustler street vendor from Europe with "good English" to be head of procurement in ministry of defense...🤣🤣😆🤣😆
Then he was send to Washington for a two weeks crush course in defense🤣😆🤣😆.
Now the hustler is enjoying a swanky lifestyle in Europe🤣🤣😆🤣😆
George Bush, should be called to account.
Comical huh. Think about that next time you pay taxes.
@@emmanuelnyiaemendack8730 so only one guy is to blame? Don't we live in a democracy? 🤔🤔🤔
The song remains the same
Damn he really pulled out the pictures like that.
No cap!!!! HOOOOON
I swear at the start he said "the u.s gaverment cant leave a rock until its government can govern itself" lmao
Didn't 2 trillion go missing on the Pentagon's watch? Or was it 1 trillion
I love how he smiled after he said 1.2 billion dollars he stole that money! 😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜
So let me get this straight... You needed a trustworthy person to look after 1.2 billion dollars and your first choice was an Iraqi used car dealer?
pizza man too
love that 'flatscreen' 😂
I thought Dubya was viewed as wise and philosophical now. We're not to bring up his incredibly wasteful war anymore.
Ok, ok, UA-cam! I'll watch it..
How come whenever you hear a politician say its in our interest they never say who "our" is?
said the sheep.
This guy shows pictures of 1 old school tank and a mobile kitchen ..they cost 1.2 billion dolaar?😂
Bush Cheney and haliburton stole all that money
They stole a lot more than JUST half a billion. A LOT! Not just in Trillions of finanials...lives, international relations, environment, etc., etc., etc.
And today...all those banks that laundered Russia and Chinese money into U.S. currency... will never get one day of justice.... Thank Bush family that still run America! There power is huge, The Stink!
@@thelonelysurfersgirl9460 you mean the satanic Bush crime family. Devil worshippers from grand dad on down
AND all the lives the stole.
Maybe....US cant afford healthcare reform, sorry, we need to cut food for children, food for poor, and social security.....uh uh. They? want it all!
They hit the motherload ever flowing spring. The motherload of all loads. (Mobile hospitals etc.)
9-11 was the real mother of all heists...
They don't even mention all of the gold under those buildings.
I watch 5 sec of this and have to stop. Why? Because I know what happens.
I'm pretty sure that that stolen money is in some Swiss bank account. And the person/persons is not living in Iraq.
Did the Iraqi's just beat the U.S. at their own public (taxes) hiest game with this move?
This is nothing like the Italian Job.
We have homeless people here, sick people here, and even starving people here in the USA. All Americans. I’m not even talking about immigrants. Don’t forget our outdated infrastructure desperately need repair. And yet we throw billions and billions of our tax payers money to some country far far away from us who would never ever truly appreciate what we do. My question is this really good for Americans?
I doubt a tenth of the monies were obtained by any other than our own contractors
That is peanuts. Come see South African gov books.
3:38 absolute boss
If y'all think that was a heist, just wait till you learn about what Covid did to the middle class.
It's probably in the guy getting Interviewed Back Pocket
I have seen some of the money in Thailand ! I was asked to get help to wash the money that was stolen
War fixes everything.
This is not a pipe, it's a picture of a pipe
Should never have gone there in the first place.
Oops, missed the date.... I thought I was going to see a story about our 2020 "election"......
9:44, “45 million what????”, “not dollar, I never said dollar”, then, “what is it?”, “Oh, I don’t remember”, so, I guess he remembered that it wasn’t dollars, and that he didn’t say it, but he doesn’t remember what it was......
Hire me and I'll locate all the criminals.
Back when news was based on facts and hard investigative journalism.
No close captions..?
Yep, follow the money to its source, Source got the biggest cut. Guess who!
That was a great looking $200 million mobile kitchen.
Hey, i'll supply the army next time. Trust me, i can shop on line and i got 2000$ in the bank.
Where’s Dog the Bounty Hunter when you need him? He’d drug that guy, put him on a plane to wake up in Iraq.
12:22 OMG, I imagine this dude has lots of typing to do...........and he uses the 'two finger' method
Any story sounds good... until you hear the other side. A triple-cross is called a layer cake.
Saw the title of this video. Thought it was going to be a documentary on the 2020 Presidential election.
And suddenly !! Wow!! New companies pop up!! Somewhere in the world.
What's amazing is that this surprised anyone. In a country where humans are disposable, what's a little harmless embezzlement?
Did you check clinton foundation?
At the beginning of this piece I heard someone say "with very little or no oversight"
USA steals 2nd largest oil field which is in Iraq but this half billion is the mother of all heists?Please!
3:48
"do you have bodyguards?"
"no"
Narrator: "yes"
The same thing happened during the Vietnam War.
Wow lots of money 💴 💰
I like money 💰 💸
Wow who is doing what ?
It's simple...let these countries fight their own battles. These people are in the shape they are in because they have been foolish and only know how to be foolish PERIOD
"This is mobile kitchen."
😂
Gee I dunno, that mobile kitchen photo was pretty convincing.
They cook up all their lies and bs in those top of the line billion 💵 mobile kitchens.
That judge has balls titanium!!!
Bush is a war criminal.
Why arem't we talking about $2.3 TRILLION mysteriously misplaced by Pentagon . Rumsfeld announced that Pentagon cannot account for $2.3 TRILLION day before 9/11. Navy Auditors who were investigating fraud were killed when drone hit Pentagon on 9/11.
Scams always lead back to the same people
THE US MILITARY COMPLEX WONT LET ANYONE HAVE 1.2 BILLION CASH UNLESS THEY WILL GET SOMETHING IN IN RETURN AND IT HAS TO BE ALOT!!!!!!😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹
60 Minutes = 60 Grumpy Old Men.
I think it's safe to say that in the end, 9/11 will be recorded as the shot heard 'round' the world.
Unbelievably confusing and hard to believe that such things come to pass in a government 😎😎😎
Will i be found with my hand in the cookie jar? Idk.
I wonder how much money is in those relief packages that go into similar situations..
I luaghed when he said those are pictures
700-800 million bucks missing? Must have left it in my other pants.
The mother heist is not this story... It's the IRS !
Tell us something we don't know, this is a every day deal, what are you going to do about it, nothing.
Up in smoke. He must of just watched a Cheech and Chong movie. Total corruption
It is not like there is dictator on one side and nice people on the other side , there are a lot criminals among those nice people
Hello of course all that lost money is going straight to the enemy's pocket !
I will keep mailing and commenting till I see a video on Nigerian politics
pay up tax payers.
SOP from countries exporting "democracy".
And somehow we just don't have the funds for universal Healthcare?
Good old Uncle Sam...
I love that Judge..
