The United States is forgiving 100 percent of the $4.1 billion Iraq owes it, the Treasury Department said in a statement.

If you think that forgiving the 4.1 Billion dollar debt is going to make the terrorists like us I've got a bridge over the East River that might just suit you and the price is right.

Gee. I didn't know that all the people in Iraq were Terrorists? Is this from the NY Times, the Washington Post, CNN, or from a special report from Dan Rather -- incredible information that only Dan Rather can find! /sarcasm off!

Yeah!

I don't care how much of their "Debt" we forgive, or what sort of fancy paperwork is involved, as long as we TAKE THEIR OIL!!!

(Hey, DU trolls - I'm SERIOUS! PLEASE go berserk... I live for that)
