Gifts from the USA.
A Jordanian man carries a pack labeled 'Gift of the people of the United States of America' from the United States agency for international development US-AID in a suburb of Amman April 7, 2003. Nine 40-feet-containers with woolen blankets, personal hygiene kits, plastic sheets for shelter, water jugs and water containers have been unloaded into an Amman warehouse on Monday, waiting to be deployed either by truck or by plane to the Iraqi capital of Baghdad.

Gee; how long do you suppose it'll be before the NY Times runs this as:
"Oppressed Iraqis struggle under the burden of American Imperialism after coalition conquest"?
