Keeping priorities straight in Iraq

Meanwhile, the US has dashed Iraqi hopes that money would at last be
invested in the country's crumbling infrastructure and no longer spent on

announced that it is switching $3.4bn of US funds from water and power
projects. Most of the money will be reallocated to boosting security and oil
output.
