Well, we already gave them several billion dollars.
Also, I think the physical rebuilding is mostly done - or at least as much as we can. I am talking about training their new army and establishing their government - those should have been completed by now. That they are not is another example of the Bush Admin.'s incompetency and ignorance in thinking that they could change people overnight without a concrete plan in place.
Again, I think we need to leave as soon as possible but leaving these people to their own devices right now would be inhumane as we put them there.
