>>Unfortunately, the president's budget request this week showed little commitment to postwar Iraq. He asked for $62.6 billion for the war and just $2.45 billion for short-term relief and reconstruction, without addressing longer-term needs. Moreover, while the U.S. has been very careful until now to avoid civilian casualties, that emphasis is showing signs of slipping as the war gets tougher.<<

He sounds like a very smart person, but how come he could not realize that the US will count on the money from selling Iraqi oil for Iraqi reconstruction?
