In 2003, after “mission accomplished”, the Federal Reserve sent over $4 billion in cash to Iraq in Federal Reserve Notes (FRN’s). That is simply plain, whole hard cash! It loaded 363 tons of the cash onto palettes and flew it on military aircraft to the “green zone”, where it surprisingly disappeared into unknown pockets. According to investigate journalist and author, T. Christian Miller, in his book “Blood Money”, contractors boasted that they could “steal us taxpayers blind”. It is fun.
