Awash in cash...maybe we could get paid back for helping out?
FOXNews.com - Iraq's Budget Surplus Could Top $79 Billion on High Oil Prices - International News | News of the World | Middle East News | Europe News
excerpts:
"The Iraqi government now has tens of billions of dollars at its disposal to fund large-scale reconstruction projects," [Sen. Carl] Levin [D-Mich.] said in a statement. "It is inexcusable for U.S. taxpayers to continue to foot the bill for projects the Iraqis are fully capable of funding themselves."
"It is time for the sovereign government of Iraq, using its revenues, expenditures and surpluses, to fully assume the responsibility to provide essential services and improve the quality of life for the Iraqi people," [Sen. John] Warner [ R-Va.] said.
