The War: again

I heard one of the Iraqi parliament members who was wounded in the "green zone" blast recently, say he was embarrassed that it was necessary for him to be taken to the American Hospital in the green zone, since there was NOT a decent one to take an Iraqi official in the whole of Iraq.
There is another story yet to be written in detail about what is happening to all of the dead and wounded that occur every day among the Iraqis. Disposing of about 500 bodies a week is a major industry in Iraq. Nost of them are burned in factories by Americans as the Iraqis won't do that. I'll stop there.
We at least bring our badly wounded to Walter Reed and some don't die quickly as do the Iraquis. We don't do so well with the follow up treatment of ours as we should--especially the blast victims, but we will now probably since it was discovered that we weren't.
Most Power in Iraq is from either Iraqi, US diesel power generators for them, and generators for us. A few hours per day for the Iraqis.
One more thing: have any of you heard or read about how the "money" is being handled in Iraq? I mean about the oil they pump and sell and the bucks we just hand them?
It is worse now for the infrastructure there than just after we bombed the hell out of them. What are we solving?
