How many hundreds of millions of dollars did they find in that one house?
I hate to say this, but somewhere down the line, some of those dollars are likely to go missing.

I would like to think that some of that money stashed in Saddam's palace has been "liberated" by U.S. troops. That would be one way to afford the $96 cases of beer now for sale in the streets of Baghdad.
Personally, I do not see anything wrong with a member of the armed services claiming an Iraqi "firearm" as a souvenir. In most cases, I would presume that such firearms would be unused and in pristine condition. Well, about as pristine as something can be in Iraq.

How many hundreds of millions of dollars did they find in that one house? 320 million dollars. It was contained in 80 metal boxes that each had 4 million dollars, all in used 100 dollar bills.
Who knows how much more is out there?
