have a totally different way of looking at the world than we.

How so?

Seriously, I'm much more worried about the World Bank involvement than the Reuters speculation right now.

I'm guessing that the choice of the World Bank and IMF was to get the money out of French, etc. banks, and to avoid the outcry and favortism to be alleged if the money were shifted to US, Brit and Spanish banks.

We'll see what the Iraqis do in the future. I'm depressed about the lack of Iraqi voices and protests over the UN hold on its money. It's their money after all.

Shermy - don't be depressed. You sound like Daschele. *L* Besides, as I posted earlier, the Iraqis don't have a representative to speak for them yet.... not for the country. That'll take a while. Free elections and all that. *s*
