You expect some exact figure? I don't think thats possible to get.

OK forget it. Just respond the gist of the post:
----------------------------------------------------------------
Iraq now is simply an ethnic/religious/clan civil struggle for power and money. Shia on Sunni, Sunni on Shia, Shia on Shia, clan on clan, Iran somewhere in the mix, al Qeada (some foreign and some Iraq domestics) on everyone. From what I've read the majority don't support the government.

And you only responded to one sentence in my post and ignored the context which was:

This is an ancient struggle between the Shia and the Sunni, with the kicker of $100 a barrel oil to the winner. None of them like us... they may be using us for their own purposes but they don't like us. And as soon as one group can gain power they will kick our ass the hell out and probably be our worst enemy. And we will be on the hook for something like $3Trillion in present and future debt.

If you can figure how that's justified then you are a financial genius.
