BBC uncovers lost Iraq billions

This is something that's been going on since the damned war started...just appalling...they're just a bunch of crooks or robber kingpins might be a better name...it's been talked about for a long time now, it's just that it hasn't been stopped because too many big names are involved...

This exposes the basic flaw of capitalism nicely: greedy people get rich and buy the politicians.

Surely there must be a better way? I find it astonishing that so many billions can just be unaccou8nted for when every cent of a tax return gets checked so accurately.

Tom.

P.S. I can't watch television but thanks for the warning anyway!

23 Billion doesn't seem so much when one considers the trillions that have been spent.
