New twist on aid for Iraq U S seeks donations
I guess I think of this as a pennies on the dollar proposition like the worst run charities. Why has the rebuild cost been increased so much? How many of the consulting and contractors are just brass plate fronts? I am not even convinced Halliburton isn't. It certainly has its share of exCIA and government types. It is interesting thought to have a political party talk free enterprise and then funnel billions into a government front.

New twist on aid for Iraq U S seeks donations
I warned my friends in the 877th before it started that it was a bit like banging a bees nest with a large stick and expecting good results. To attack a large nest you need to be prepared, be properly protected and use proper stratagy. Winning their confidence and smoking out the problem bees. Naturally they chose to believe the Bush propaganda.

The stats I see state that Iraq never pumped more than 2.5 Mbarrels per day. Infrastructure would need to be increased to pump more (up to 6 million). If they used oil at the same rate as the US perperson that would leave about 300,000 barrels a day for export. Currently I think they have about 1.5 Mbarrels they could sell, but they have some 200,000 more people running around in thirsty tanks and trucks.

Great idea Beagle, but don't you think that Rummy and company should have planned this before not after the fact. Now it is a bit like the big tough kid on your block showing up on your door step with a shovel and telling you he has removed the dangerous snow from your walk and then demanding payment.
In engineering projects 1/3 of the time for the project is to be spent in planning. Haste makes waste. The problem here is that the lives wasted are not the politician's or the elite's sons and daughters.
