Where is the outrage?

Via Atrios The US has spent **at least** $22 billion in training an Iraqi army that will not be ready till 2012 to 2018.

Compare that figure to defense budgets of various countries who manage to have competent armies within that range. It is not that the Iraqi cannot be taught to be a soldier. It is the vast stupidity and corruption of the American establishment. Where is the American citizens' outrage? It isn't there because it will be their grandchildren who pay for it. Stick the ungrateful brats with the bill.
