Why is the US falling apart domestically and Iraq sits with a surplus of $79 billion of their own unspend money. How does George Bush sleep at night while fellow Americans are swindled into voting him into another term in office and while he is at it organise $750 billion for his rich buddies. How the FCUK can people still vote Republican.

What happened to the Billions sent to Iraq by the Bush Administration?

Reba K asked:


The US flew nearly $12bn in shrink-wrapped $100 bills into Iraq, then distributed the cash with no proper control over who was receiving it and how it was being spent.

The staggering scale of the biggest transfer of cash in the history of the Federal Reserve has been graphically laid bare by a US congressional committee.

In the year after the invasion of Iraq in 2003 nearly 281 million notes, weighing 363 tonnes, were sent from New York to Baghdad for disbursement to Iraqi ministries and US contractors.

Who deserves prosecution over this loss of US funds?
