Even if elements in the Bush administration do propose rebuilding Iraq after the war (and I doubt the administration will propose any such thing), a bi-partisan cross-section in Congress will stand firmly against it. Iraq's only hope is that we will share our new oil enough with them to allow them to try to build their own nation.

They stood against us as a mortal enemy, and we had to go to war to destroy them. Any argument that we should be obligated to rebuild them is patently insane, and will be shouted down immediately.

I expect idiotic "re-building" proposals from the anti-American left. REAL American will rightfully reject it. The Marshall Plan myth will finally bite the dust after the Iraq war...
