They were not experienced. They did not know what they were doing.

Those are $100,000 bricks of $100 bills and that?s $2 million there. This, in fact, is a payment that we made on the 1st of August to a company called Custer Battles.

Iraq was awash in cash - in dollar bills. Piles and piles of money. We played football with some of the bricks of $100 bills before delivery. It was a wild-west crazy atmosphere, the likes of which none of us had ever experienced.

It shows the brazenness of the people who were around those sums of money and what they thought they could get away with.

I think that what they were doing was of the nature of what I understand war-profiteering to be about ? which is to get into a chaotic situation and milk every penny out of it you can, as fast as you can, before the opportunity goes away.

I would agree with most of that.
