The reconstruction of Towelheadistan has taken a turn that our Divinely hand-picked President didn't intend. This one has the Demoncretins' hoof marks all over it; after all, we know how much they miss the USSR. I'm sure the Clintons are involved somehow.

Iraq Private Sector Falters; Rolls of Government Soar
BAGHDAD — Hampered by years of violence, a decimated infrastructure, a lack of foreign investors and a flood of imports that undercut local businesses, Iraq’s private sector, particularly its small non-oil economy, has so far failed to flourish as its American patrons had hoped.
In its absence, the Iraqi government has been sustaining the economy the way it always has: by putting citizens on its payroll. Since 2005, according to federal budgets, the number of government employees has nearly doubled, to 2.3 million from 1.2 million.
