In case you haven't realized. Iraq now has a goverment. They make the decisions as to how to spend their oil revenues.

There are 2 offshore oil terminals off Iraq, Mabot and Kaaot. Room for 8-10 super tankers to load oil. Before the war 1 berth was operational, now all berths are operational. That's 8-10 super tankers every 2 days. That money, is being used by Iraq to rebuild Iraq. Do you think it should go in your pocket?
