The Facts
With the Iraqi government is generating hundreds of billions of dollars in oil revenues a year, the US is still paying not only for the war, but also for the reconstruction of Iraq. The US is paying the salaries of over 100,000 Iraqis who are working on construction while Iraq banks all their money.
My View
Just over a month ago I wrote a post on this same subject. But evidently the American taxpayers don’t care, for if they did, they would be screaming by the hundreds of thousands on the front lawn of the White House and the steps of Congress. Instead we are screaming at each other over whose political party wears a halo over their head and whose political party has horns growing out of their heads. But why should we care if the Iraqi’s are screwing us; we are letting our politicians take our money every day and give it away to those who already have more than they can spend. And who can blame Iraq? If those crazy Americans are stupid enough to spend their money on us, why should we say anything; we Iraqi politicians just have more money to put in foreign banks for when we are thrown out of the country. Bush’s war! I can’t wait for his war with Iran.
