Translator’s note:
-Document IISP-2003-00040598 contains 64 pages regarding memos and transfers of money to the Afghani opposition in 1988-89-90
- All transfer documents are in English, $500,000.00 per month.
- The interesting fact is that the Afghani opposition at this time 88-90 was fighting the Soviet Union, Saddam’s best friend.
- So Saddam was financially supporting the enemies of his best ally.
- If he has no problem back stabbing his best supporters, one should wonder how he feels about the United Nations whom he never considered as friends.
Translation of page 13/64:

To: Respected director
Subject: The Afghani Ahmad Hassan Al Kilani
Sir,
The President Leader (May God protect him) had previously ordered us, through Mr. the Secretary’s memo number 560/K on 2-2-1990 to provide a monthly amount of half a million dollars from the account of the Presidency to be transferred to the account of Mr. Ahmad Al Kilani in a Swiss bank, starting from 1-1-1989 and until the opposition controls the government in Afghanistan.
Since 1-1-1989 we have been continuously paying half a million dollars monthly.
Please review, with respects
11th March 1990
On page 61/64 a top secret and private memo (dated 2nd of November 1988) says that the half a million dollars transfers started in October 1988.
On page 29/64 an intelligence memo (dated 5th of January 1991) mentions that the last half a million dollar payment took place on the 9th of August 1990 (translator’s note: 7 days after he invaded Kuwait)
Translator’s note: A total of 23 months of transfers equals eleven millions and five hundred thousands US dollars.
