Bah they're paying back a very small amount of what US spent to free Kuwait from Saddam.

I find your post very funny considering the French flag you're flying on your home page. Just how much help has France pledged to us? I'm waiting.........

Considering that 1) when we sent them a bill after the first war, they paid it in *cash*, and 2) they continued to give the US military in the area all the fuel, oil, and petrochemicals they needed for *free* until they couldn't afford to do it any more, I'd say you're full of it. Yes, from 1991 until just a few months ago, Kuwait was fuelling EVERY piece of equipment in theatre, for FREE. Gratis. No charge.
How much is that worth, hm?
