A country that’s sitting on the 2nd largest oil reserve on the planet is getting forgiven on 80% of her national debt. Over 1,000,000 barrels@today’s price($48?) are getting pumped out and freighted past the Iraqi treasury into the high seas to be sold for private profit. At the same time, the tax-payers of the US and Germany are footed the bill by their governmental representatives. Simultaneously, private debt is never forgiven, in either country. Whoever can’t pay their bills, as a tax paying private citizen, is dealt with in an unforgivable manner :mad:
This was undertaken to allow Iraq's elegibility for further loans
