Millions wasted in Iraq rebuilding

Millions wasted in Iraq rebuilding - Conflict in Iraq - MSNBC.com: "The U.S. government wasted tens of millions of dollars in Iraq reconstruction aid, including scores of unaccounted-for weapons and a never-used camp for housing police trainers with an Olympic-size swimming pool, investigators say.
