3. No no, you are just a US citizen and taxpayer, you have no oversight rights.
You just hand over the money and keep quiet.

7. Recycled into 2004/2006 elections.
Takes a lot of money to throw an election.

8. I'm guessing it's in the palms of Iraqis, not Americans.
Iraqi record-keeping is nonexistant, and fraud and bribery are rampant. A Yank contractor or two might have made off with a fortune, but I'm guessing most of that is financing either warlords or early retirements for Iraqi officials.
