    6.6 of 12 Billion in cash sent to Iraq on 21 Hercules cargo planes simply disappeared

    "But despite years of audits and investigations, U.S. Defense officials still cannot say what happened to $6.6 billion in cash"

    and

    "For the first time, federal auditors are suggesting that some or all of the cash may have been stolen"

        When I saw this thread my first thought was "bullshit". And if it came from any other source other than the LA times I'd still say "bullshit". I'm wondering why this hasn't hit other mainstream news sources.

          The unaccounted for money has been in the news off and on for years.

                The funnny thing is the idiots on this board saying that no budget cuts can be made.. that all we can do is raise taxes. Our military budget alone is bigger than the next 15 countries put together... and this is why.

                  The missing money was Iraqi money and was not U.S. tax payers money given to them by our Government.

                    Look Pathfinder... waive your fucking flag somewhere else. No one here really cares. It's nice that you were in the military. It's nice you served. I'm sorry you were injured. But that doesn't mean your "my country/my military is always right no matter what" which is your unwavering, shallow, naive and shortsighted position.

                    There has been nothing but story after story after story about billions unaccounted for that is flowing into Iraq from US tax payers. The government is an unending cluster fuck when it comes to managing money.

                      the money was used to start Manwin? What I want to know is why do we move so much cash, can't we just use an ATM card?

                      Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
                      think about that

                        The money is in motion. Its currently funding "The Shi'ites - The Other Middlemen"

                        No worries. All is well.

                              Missing Iraq money may have been stolen, auditors say
                              U.S. Defense officials still cannot say what happened to $6.6 billion, sent by the planeload in cash and intended for Iraq's reconstruction after the start of the war.

                                  Pretty much stinks like everything else gov't does...

                                  Look at Medi-Cal the California medical care for welfare recipients. It lost 1 Billion a year. But nobody figured on hiring 1,176 agents to recover the cash at a cost of $100 million? Could have paid the agents $85,000 and received some of the best in their fields to track down that fraud and strike fear in the hearts of shitheads all over the state...

                                  But that is how America "works"....

                                    $6.6 billion, a drop in the ocean against the rest of the money spent invading Iraq.

                                    The money Bush spent was all well invested, it got him a second term.

                                      Where is that video where some guys are over there somewhere playing catch with big huge bricks of USD? And what ever happened with that? I think it was in the 100s of Ms and never recovered..

                                        I was thinking the same thing.. cant wire it? or send a cheque.. who travels with that kind of cash to a foreign country.. and doesn't expect at least some of it to go missing

                                          If the "masses" of people knew how FAKE "everything" is..

                                          They'd probably do nothing.

                                                    Because it is no longer news.
