>> The Iraqis will end up paying for their own reconstruction out of their oil fields.<<

Lindy, with all due respect, this is not something we plan to do. I realize that many wish it, but there is no indication that the US government intends this. The indications are to the contrary. We have said that we may seize the oil fields to keep Saddam from destroying them, but the money will be held in trust for the Iraqi people.
