When, discussing politics, you don't look from other people's points of view. You just shoot what others believe down and insult them. That really makes you look like a prick. Try being just the tiniest bit polite.

I believe Strangler made the point quite clear and simple. It is the United State's money and the United States can do what they want with their own money. It is only logical to not allow any countries that did not support the war to be able to profit from the rebuilding of that country. You also have to consider France and Germany were racking in billons of dollars from Saddam... illegally I might add. You may find it unfair to exclude Canada from bidding, but then it would be unfair to only allow one country that did not support the war to bid.
And a lot of times it is not about shooting people's points of view down, it's about shooting down their misinformed ideas.
