US Military Equipment in Iraq (2007)/Money counters
From Wikileaks
In the year after the invasion of Iraq in 2003, the U.S. Army shipped nearly US$12 billion in cash, weighing 363 tonnes, to Baghdad for disbursement to Iraqi ministries and U.S. contractors. The funds were drawn from the Iraq Development Fund, which had been formed from U.S. seized Iraqi assets. Using C-130 planes, the deliveries took place once or twice a month with the biggest of $2,401,600,000 on June 22 2004, six days before the legal handover of the fund to the new Iraqi government. [1] The cash payment system has continued as there is no functional Iraqi banking network. With so much cash flowing into the country it comes as no surprise to find that the U.S. Army has deployed 39 bulk cash counting machines.
