why not move to iraq! do it now! just remember the more family members you bring, the more opportunity you have to make big bucks!
how? you ask...........well our good friends in the american military of course,
here how it works:
Any Iraqi can file a claim with US forces for loss or damage caused by military operations.
A damaged high-value car or dead family member brings $2,500, while a television destroyed by a hand-grenade is valued at $350.

One entry in the 4/14 Cavalry compensation log reads: "blown-up house, pay $1,300". Another: "destroyed boat, $20". Others include a blown-up potato field and irrigation equipment ($2,000), a damaged door in a hospital ($50) and a burned-down store ($2,500).

still not convinced? why not read about one of the already satisfied civilians who recieved $5000:

HAMEED Hassan sat in the remains of his car, next to his dead wife, and watched his four-year-old son begin to bleed to death.

The family had been on the way to buy clothes in Rawah's small market when the American soldiers opened fire. A helicopter gunship joined in the attack, cutting the car and two of its occupants to pieces.

Hassan's wife, Basima Taha, died almost immediately. His youngest son, Mahmoud Muhsin, was not as lucky. Hit in the torso, his abdomen was torn open, a wound that would prove fatal.

They were outside the main government building in Rawah, a town on the Euphrates River about 90km from the Syrian border, deep in Sunni al-Anbar province, when Hassan turned his car around. He drove down a side street, alongside the civic centre, and found himself heading towards a group of US soldiers - engaged at that time in a major anti-insurgent offensive.

"They started shooting straight away," he said, "I saw no signal, no warning, just the bullets hitting my car. The helicopter joined in. I saw my wife was killed."

The soldiers drove off, leaving the family in the street.

and..........

In one incident, seven civilians were killed and five wounded when 25 high-explosive mortars were fired on a Bedouin pastoral area: a total of $30,000 was paid out to the families.

so why don't you come to the fastest growing democracy in the world!
