Commission gets grim report on wartime spending
 

Check this out, a new commission examining waste and corruption in wartime contracts say poor planning, weak oversight and greed combined to soak U.S. taxpayers and undermine American forces in Iraq and Afghanistan. In other words the US soldier and taxpayers got fucked :321GFY
Stuart Bowen, the special inspector general for Iraq reconstruction, says U.S. taxpayers have paid nearly $51 billion for a wide array of projects in Iraq. |Anything from training the Iraqi army (what army) and police to rebuilding the country's oil, electric, justice, health and transportation sectors.
Overall, the Pentagon, State Department and U.S. Agency for International Development have paid contractors more than $100 billion since 2003 for goods and services to support war operations and rebuilding projects in Iraq and Afghanistan.
There are 154 open criminal investigations into allegations of bribery, conflicts of interest, defective products, bid rigging (wonder if Bush and Chaney and Halliburton's name are in the investigation and theft stemming from the wars, Thomas Gimble, the Pentagon's principal deputy inspector general, said in his testimony.
Is the US getting any of that back from the oil sales that Iraq is making or getting this money back in the form of free oil given to the US taxpayers ?
Not a suprized that Iraq fucked the US taxpayer once again.

nothing new to report

the cost of the life of those sent to die there is worth more than dollars, and tax payers will always pay for war as well as fight them.

The Iraq and even Afgan wars were an absolutely tragic waste of both money and life.

As an Australian I fucking resent the shit you guys cop, and wonder when the hell you are going to wake up and start asking other countries to do some heavy lifting especially in their own regions. I honestly think the world is laughing at America because you guys are so willing to spend money and lives in pretty much any country. I think its about time you told the other asshole countries to do their own fucking work in their own fucking regions and look after yourselves for a change.

Its not like you get any thanks for what you do (donate).
