Program to rebuild Iraq troubled

The $21 billion U.S. rebuilding campaign in Iraq has made "substantial progress" but will leave a legacy of unbuilt projects and unfulfilled promises, says a report issued today by the U.S. reconstruction watchdog.

In his review, Special Inspector General Stuart Bowen says the Iraq rebuilding effort is in its "close-out phase." He describes a substantial gap between projects promised by U.S. officials and those likely to be completed before U.S. funds are exhausted.

Whose fault will this be? I say: the people fighting against the rebuilding, not the people trying to make it succeed.

Who blew the shit up in the first place?

That's who you blame.
