After the U.S. invasion of Iraq, the United States took control of all of the Iraqi government’s bank accounts, including the income from oil sales. The United Nations approved the financial takeover, and President Bush vowed to spend Iraq’s money wisely. But now critics are raising serious questions about how well the United States handled billions of dollars in Iraqi oil funds.

Iraq's oil resources generate billions of dollars — money the United States promised to protect after overthrowing Saddam Hussein.

besides that Saddam has not been in power for several years now,where is their oil money going? maybe private American oil companies perhaps?



Good post!!

Post Traumatic Stress effected tens of thousands of returning vets and many went untreated. They do have problems with violence, especially domestic violence and incarceration and homelessness.

We were not attacked by Iraq and the war is a lie. It was promoted by what are termed "Chicken Hawks." The list of those who did and did not serve is highly enlightening. The majority of those who are the loudest and most emphatic war hawks never served at all. The Democrats who did serve are portrayed by the right wing and in the media as "unpatriotic" and weak. Yet the record shows it is actually the majority of democrats that served and not the war hawks, or "Chicken Hawks" as they are referred to.

Granted, there are Chicken Hawks on both sides of the aisle but we find more democrats served then republicans.

Our government is corrupted by corporate money and power and controls both parties. The corporate republicans led the way to the Iraq War but the spineless corporate democrats followed. It's happening again with Iran.
