(Reuters (http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/06/19/us-iraq-usa-money-idUSTRE75I20S20110619)) - Iraq's parliament is chasing about $17 billion of Iraqi oil money it says was stolen after the 2003 U.S.-led invasion and has asked the United Nations for help to track it down.

"All indications are that the institutions of the United States of America committed financial corruption by stealing the money of the Iraqi people, which was allocated to develop Iraq, (and) that it was about $17 billion," said the letter sent to the U.N. with a 50-page report.
Coincidentally, that very amount of money was the Sha's fortune when he flew away from Iran in 1979. The Irani people never could recover a penny back, despite they took the USA embassy and kidnapped its employees during a year.
