Time to Restore Kofi Annan’s Reputation
The United Nations’ longest-running saga, the oil-for-food imbroglio, reached a critical point when Paul Volcker issued his final report on the tawdry episode. His findings may now lead to the prosecutions of the various corporations and individuals involved. All of this is to the good. But, meantime, what about the collateral damage to the key figure in this investigation, namely U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan?

3. Mr. Annan Has Always Behaved With Grace and Honor
He has no reason to apologize. Unfortunately, he also has no reason to espect any apology from those who sought to slime him. On the other hand, there's still the ICC to come--and it will come. You gotta believe!
