>I dont' recall anyone on this forum every claiming what you implied Hugo. I think many may have pointed out that corruption existed and corruption may have been included in a list of problems in Iraq both before and after the invasion, but I don't think anyone ever listed it as the sole excuse (or the sole or even main justification) for invading a country. Can you provide a link to a message where that was done Hugo? I would be very interested in reading it. I must've missed that one...Never mind Iraq's money. How about ours? Yours and mine?
Specifically the $9 billion that is still unaccounted for? The one during Paul Bremer's administration?
