Afghan president Karzai: Bush knew we were getting bags of cash from Iran

~

Afghan President Hamid Karzai admitted to CNN on Monday that he has received cash payments from Iran after a New York Times report fingered his chief of staff as carrying bags of money back from trips to Iran.

Little noticed in his interview, however, is that he said that President George W. Bush knew Afghanistan was getting cash from their western neighbor.

"Even when we were at Camp David [Maryland] with President [George W.] Bush, this is nothing hidden," Karzai remarked.
