Of course the whole thing's ridiculous and the US will never pay a penny (nor should it), but let's not confuse ourselves about whether we have any control over what the US would, or would not, pay.  We pay our taxes and the gov't. does whatever the hell it wants with the money.

Neocon's created monster and rest will pay for decades for this foolishness. They should have asked for Trillions. Talk about destroying a country with lies. Iraq should sue UK for damages also.
