Maybe that's why the Iraqi government is playing loosey goosey with their oil money and not kicking in bucks to rebuild the country we all but destroyed...
We broke, we own it.
Wasn't that what was the first of many changing reasons why we had to stay in Iraq after the initial euphoria died down and everyone realized it would be a slog instead of a cakewalk.
We blew it right the fuck up...
As far as developing their own security forces, starting out in jobs programs and aid and assistance to their people, yea, they should be doing that. Cause if they ain't gonna do it now, we can't count on them to not do it after the troops leave and pave the way for another incarnation of Saddam to likely appear.
We should take some responsibility for our actions but again, the burden should be shifting toward the Iraqi's.
