Don't forget the profits Powell made on selling the artifacts on EBAY.

BTW - what do you think of the estimated $6 billion skimmed by the Hussein family from oil sales?

What is your opinion of the estimated $1 billion Yassir Arafat apparently has been able to squirrel away, largely from US aid?

Raymond,re:"military-industrial complex". What's the shelf
life of our weapons? Is there serial number of those
BunkerBusterClusterBombs, cruise-missles ... or anything.
How do we know they are 'really spent'?
Sorry for being suspecious, afterall, this is the country
where all those 'accounting frauds' sprouting left and
right. Where there is money, there is fraud, if allowed.
How do we really know:
we fired '8000 cruise missels'?
Or 4 4000pounds bombs in the same place, just to make sure?
millions of 'sorties' flown?
'wealth transfer'?
