Damn I'm just trying to get compensation as a gulf war era disabled vet and it's taking months.

Iraqi invasion was unnecessary.

Still, that $42 million more than foreign Jihadists paid for murdered Iraqis.

about $50 bucks per dead and wounded

Millions of Iraqis dead, displaced, homeless, ill thanks to the USUK. Every fourth child in Iraq today suffering from malnutrition (this was NOT the case under Saddam.) And the Iraqi victims get a few lousy worthless million dollars in compensation? How shameful. And just to put this in perspective, 15 years ago, when the dollar was still worth a little, ONE American woman got a jury award of 2.7 million dollars because the coffee she spilled on herself at McDonalds was too hot.

charge the bill to the bush family,right wing nuts like cheeny and kristol and the lying saudi royal family!!

The Russian mafia has a term that loosely translates to "shut-up money"...

So the US Military paid $42 Million (courtesy of the US taxpayers of course!) to just some of the innocent people they murdred in Iraq - but this is only a very small drop in the bucket when you compare the 4 $Billion_plus dollars the U.S. gives to Israel every year.Also seeing that Israel was in large part the main instigator,along with the Bush Regime,of the Iraq and every other middle east war,$42 million to their victims is indeed a war monger's type of joke!

Less than 3,000 civilian killed in the 9/11 attacks compared to almost 17,000 civilians killed in this war. Do any of you rabid right fanatics think that any of those 17,000 have relatives, and do you think that most of those relatives are going to be our friends or our enemies? Now tell me again how this ill-concieved and mis-managed war has made us safer.
