1) i do not believe those figures
2) the united states of america and great britian are not the world's problem solvers. The focus is misguided without a doubt. There is a cost/reward for every action, from raising children to international politics.
So fukin what if iraq has a good voter turnout for elections overseen by an outside occupying force (at a cost to that occupying force of trillions of dollars).
Does that prove anything in the long term? Does that create a fundamental change in the thinking of iraqis? Probably not. It takes generations of consistency to erase thousands of years of cultural evolution.
The better solution is to find out how to work with people, who are adults and have an obligation to take care of themselves. Spare me the savior routine until someone actually proves this anything is worth the cost, and unless the locals are behind the cause.
Sh it, if you hand thqt money to your own people, its more likely to cause a differnce in your citizens lives.
