#3 This scandal is slowly starting to unravel. The US may be able to prosecute a selected few, but the financial reputation of the UN will be forever discredited. The next step after exposure will be to squeeze the UN's pocketbook and force them to reform. Do not hold your breath. What will happen is that the UN will continue its slide into irrelevance. Take a look at how the tsunami disaster relief was handled. Some can-do nations with air and sealift capabilities made it happen, not the UN.
