Who foots the Bill for rebuilding Iraq ?

USA, Saudi Oil $$$$ this will be interesting debate.

I don't care who does in one sense, but i assume some Iraqi oil will help pay some bills for the rebuilding, it'd be nice to see the Saudis help out, but I'm not holding my breath. In another sense I do, but guessing to me right now is pointless for me, anyway. Absolutely no offense intended!

none taken, but I just wonder how much USA tax dollars will be sucked up after all this bombing and destruction takes place. I am concerned that with jobs drying up and leaving this country that an economic war will be fought here in the USA.

Bush & his oil tycoon buddies will reap the benefits of oil & the people will pay for the rebuilding of Iraq. The government we have 10 years from now will have to deal with it, while Bush and his oil buddies are gloating at their net worth.

Japan will prob. kick up some cash for rebuilding. and belive it or not the UN will be right there to help out.

Japan? you say?

Yes Japan is a major financial supporter of US led colalitions. Since they are only allowed to have a very small army they depend on us to defend them. and they will need our help soon as N Korea looks more and more like our next target.

And the elderly in the USA will have to deal with it too. It will be their SS benefits that are gone because of this stupid chit we are doing.

Jazz your comment "I don't care" is the typical responce of too many Americans.

Grantt,

Thats a bit extreme i think.
