"Between April 2003 and June 2004, $12 billion in U.S. currency???much of it belonging to the Iraqi people???was shipped from the Federal Reserve to Baghdad, where it was dispensed by the Coalition Provisional Authority. Some of the cash went to pay for projects and keep ministries afloat, but, incredibly, at least $9 billion has gone missing, unaccounted for, in a frenzy of mismanagement and greed. Following a trail that leads from a safe in one of Saddam's palaces to a house near San Diego, to a P.O. box in the Bahamas, the authors discover just how little anyone cared about how the money was handled."http://www.vanityfair.com//politics/feat...currentPage=all

    Well, this is what happens when you just throw $$$$ at something at don't have any kind of management or accountability in place. If you threw billions at the AIDS epidemic in a similar fashion, the same thing would happen: a bunch of thieves would make off with billions and a bit would get to researchers and we would be in the same spot we are now.

    ACCOUNTABILITY.

  • This would of been a lot bigger of a news story if the Government didn't have the media on lock. Retarded people have way too much power...
