6 Billion Dollars Sent To Iraq "Stolen"

Reporting from Washington—
After the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq in March 2003, the George W. Bush administration flooded the conquered country with so much cash to pay for reconstruction and other projects in the first year that a new unit of measurement was born.

Pentagon officials determined that one giant C-130 Hercules cargo plane could carry $2.4 billion in shrink-wrapped bricks of $100 bills. They sent an initial full planeload of cash, followed by 20 other flights to Iraq by May 2004 in a $12-billion haul that U.S. officials believe to be the biggest international cash airlift of all time.

This month, the Pentagon and the Iraqi government are finally closing the books on the program that handled all those Benjamins. But despite years of audits and investigations, U.S. Defense officials still cannot say what happened to $6.6 billion in cash — enough to run the Los Angeles Unified School District or the Chicago Public Schools for a year, among many other things.

  6. “…federal auditors are suggesting that some or all of the cash may have been stolen, not just mislaid in an accounting error.
    Stuart Bowen, special inspector general for Iraq reconstruction, an office created by Congress, said the missing $6.6 billion may be "the largest theft of funds in national history."

    That few billions in Iraq no longer holds the record in financial theft.

    But it is true that the CIA and the ESF fund can shift billions openly or in secret.

    "the largest theft of funds in national history.” began with the bipartisan support for TARP to socialize the losses of the financial sector, most of this bailout money went to foreign banks not to American banks.
    After a real MSM disinformation conspiracy organized by the Fed and US treasury most Americans still believe the money went to US banks to “save America” .
    But as the Fed is a secretive private company not subject to audit or American control billions or even trillions of dollars can be shifted around the world as with TARP.
    Ron Paul says:
    “They have literally bought over a trillion dollars worth of securities.
    And we don't know who benefited by that or how much they paid for them”

    The ongoing bailouts and ongoing interest free money for bankers including foreign banks
    now amounts in total to many trillions of dollars for European looters of the USA .

    There is also the unaccounted for 2 Trillions of $ from “defense” programs that Rumsvelt talked about on the day before 9.11
    He quickly shut up about that after 9.11, and it all became a “known unknown” never to be mentioned again by Rummy.
    Here we enter the realm of 9.11 conspiracy theory, @ .

    http://www.scribd.com/doc/55864493/Unicorns-and-Glitter

    Some believe that the real reason for 9.11 was a targeting of the financial records of the CIA and its agents dealings in Rummys missing trillions!
    Records in big financial bond dealings held in the Twin towers, in building 7 and the naval intelligence offices at the Pentagon!

    A couple of trillion dollar cover up motive?

    But as these financial records were all destroyed on 9.11 it will perhaps forever remain a
    conspiracy theory never a proven conspiracy fact.

    For example billions used to help destabilize the Soviet Union and for Soros type currency speculation on the ruble as it collapsed .

    Do we really think the CIA in the cold war was just sitting on its hands, or engaging in economic warfare to aid in the financial debt crisis collapse of the USSR ?

    For years the American neo-cons have crowed that they won the cold war by outspending the USSR.

    The budget of the state capitalist USSR was premised on a continuing income in high oil price revenues for its exports. But the price of oil collapsed .
    We know the OPEC oil price can be manipulated.
    Russia could not compete in the arms race and pay the interest on its borrowed money too.
    Part of the conspiracy theory or speculation is that Greenspan created ‘out of fresh air” 10 year US treasury bonds ,as Treasury bill security backed finance for the CIA in 1991 that fell due for cashing in in 2001.
    In the USSR Rubles exchanged on the blackmarket for US dollars.
    Trillions in US dollar in value departed the USSR as loot
    .Billions returned as investment in state assets.

    Under the drunken Yeltsin oil and other state owned natural recourses of the USSR were sold off cheaply and finished up in the pockets of Oligarchs.
    But where was their billions in dollar finances sourced?

    Some people in this complicated black money dealings it seems played the US and the CIA for a sucker in these secret financial warfare games and the oligarchs finished up the winners.
    This is the probably the $2 trillion of unaccounted money that Rumsvelt was referring to ?
