Apparently throwing in the towel on our reconstruction efforts, Daniel Speckhard, Director of US Iraq Reconstruction Management Office, has told Iraq that it can no longer count on US money to fund its reconstruction efforts, which are estimated to be in the $70 - 100 billion range. We have kickstarted their economy (or so we claim) and now it's up to Iraq and other countries to complete the job.
One would hope that Iraq does not use our reconstruction efforts as a model to follow. Talk about screw-ups, mismanagement and waste of money; our reconstruction efforts are prime examples of these failures.
