McNuts apparently was smoking very powerful stuff when he outlined his vision of the future :

* The Iraq War has been won. Iraq is a functioning democracy, although still suffering from the lingering effects of decades of tyranny and centuries of sectarian tension.

* The increase in actionable intelligence that the counterinsurgency produced led to the capture or death of Osama bin Laden, and his chief lieutenants.

* Concerted action by the great democracies of the world has persuaded a reluctant Russia and China to cooperate in pressuring Iran to abandon its nuclear ambitions, and North Korea to discontinue its own.

* After exercising my veto several times in my first year in office, Congress has not sent me an appropriations bill containing earmarks for the last three years.

He could have added one more item :

* Pigs begin flying. People use flying pigs to commute to work, instead of cars. Garages get converted to pig sties. And voila'! - no more energy crisis!

So, in your version of history, they took the 3 billion to sit at the meeting, and then after that, went on their way fighting with Israel, and the Egypt-Israel peace treaty (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel-Egypt_Peace_Treaty ) as well as the Israel-Jordan peace treaty ( en.wikipedia.org - signed in 1994 by Hussein for Jordan, Rabin for Israel and Clinton for US) are mere figments of people's imaginations?!
