It seems so far that the US found almost $1 billion in Iraq. Does anyone have any idea what will be done with the money?
Also, any recommendations of what you think the US should do with all that money?

Use it to defray war costs, and in rebuilding Iraq.

I second what spacemanspiff said. Use it to buy replacements for everything expended in OIF. Especially Tomahawks.

I think some of the money ought to go to the survivors of the servicemen who died there.

1. It will be considered as property of the liberated Iraqi people stolen from them by Saddam.
2. It should be used for their benefit administered by the allies.

It belongs to the people of Iraq and should be used to rebuild their nation. If we took it, it would probably end up being used to recarpet the UN building or something. :rolleyes:

Keep it- so that when leftist whiners cry about "blood for oil' we can say no it was blood for cash. Maybe that will shut them up.
No, it won't. Oh well.

I'm not entirely sure who it belongs to, but I can't think of any legit US claim to it.
Yes, USA/UK/Australia went in and removed the Ba'ath party from power. Stated goals and justification were preemption of any attack on allied interests, Ba'ath party aiding international terrorism, human rights abuses.
None of those have to do with taking a load of cash from a country with severe problems already. That's called 'looting,' and it's to be avoided.
