US Paying Allies to Fight War in Iraq美國的盟國支付爭取在伊拉克戰爭
By通過 Subodh Varma - TNN subodh瓦爾馬-t nn | NEW DELHI: The tale of massive fraud and embezzlement of millions of dollars by the US military in its operations in Iraq continues. |新德：故事大規模欺詐和挪用公款數百萬美元，由美國軍方在其在伊拉克的行動仍在繼續。 Testifying before the US Congress Committee on Oversight and Government Reform on 22 May, Mary Ugone, deputy inspector general of accounts in the Pentagon said that an audit of $8.2 billion spending related to the Iraq war showed that $7.8 billion had been improperly spent.作證之前，美國國會委員會的監督和政府的改革於5月22日，瑪麗ugone ，副監察長帳戶，在五角大樓說，審計82億美元的開支相關的伊拉克戰爭表明，七十八億元，已被不當運用。
Over 180,000 payments, mostly since the war started in 2003, were made by the defense department to contractors for everything from bottled water to vehicles to transportation services.超過180000付款，大多是由於戰爭於2003年開始，提出了由國防部門承辦一切從瓶裝水，以車輛運輸服務。
In her testimony, Ugone also revealed that $135 million were given to forces from three countries UK, South Korea and Poland to facilitate their participation in the war.在她的證詞， ugone還透露， 1.35億美元給部隊從3個國家的英國，韓國和波蘭，以方便他們參加戰爭。 This is the first time that the US has officially admitted paying its allies in the so-called Coalition of the Willing that invaded Iraq in March 2003.這是第一次說，美國已正式承認，支付及其盟國在所謂的意願聯盟認為，入侵伊拉克在2003年3月。
In his opening statement, Henry Waxman, chairman of the committee, said that wounded soldiers are getting notices from the Pentagon to return signing bonuses with interest since they had not completed the full term.在他的開幕發言，亨利韋克斯曼，委員會主席說，受傷士兵正在通知書，從五角大樓返回簽署的花紅與利益，因為他們還沒有完成整個任期。 “There is something very wrong when our wounded troops have to fill out forms in triplicate for meal money while billions of dollars in cash are handed out in Iraq with no accountability,” he said. “有一些非常錯誤的，當我們受傷的部隊已填寫表格三份，膳食錢，而數十億美元的現金交給了在伊拉克沒有問責制， ”他說。
In an earlier report released in November 2007, the Inspector General had concluded that the Defense Department couldn’t properly account for over $5 billion in taxpayer funds spent in support of the Iraq Security Forces.在早先的報告發表在2007年11月，總檢察長曾得出結論認為，國防部不能妥善帳戶超過50億美元的納稅人的資金用在支持對伊拉克安全部隊。 It said that thousands of weapons, including assault rifles, machine guns, and rocket-propelled grenade launchers were unaccounted for, and millions of dollars had been squandered on construction projects that did not exist.它說，數以千計的武器，包括衝鋒槍，機槍，和火箭助推榴彈發射器均下落不明，並以百萬元計的已浪費在建設項目並不存在。
Ugones testimony gave detailed examples of the bizarre manner in which US defense officials doled out huge amounts of money without recording where it was going. ugones的證詞做了詳細的例子，奇怪的方式，其中美國國防部官員發放大量的金錢，沒有錄音的地方去。 In one case a sum of $320 million was paid an Iraqi official for paying salaries with only an incompletely filled voucher signed by one official.在一個案例中的一筆3.2億美元的支付伊拉克官員支付的工資只有1完全填補券簽署的一名官員。 Since no details of the spending plan were attached as required by Pentagon rules the auditors have no clue as to where the money went.由於沒有詳細的開支計劃，附所要求的規則，五角大樓的核數師有沒有線索，以那裡有錢去。 This payment was made from assets seized from Iraq.此款項是由沒收的資產從伊拉克撤軍。
Auditors found that the Pentagon gave away $1.8 billion from seized Iraqi assets.審計發現，五角大樓了離十八億元，從繳獲的伊拉克資產。 There were 53 vouchers noting these payments but not even one adequately explained where the money went.有53人憑單注意到，這些款項發放，但沒有一個充分的解釋，那裡有錢去。
In another instance, two vouchers, one for $5 million and the other for $2.7 million showed payments to a vendor for goods and services provided except that there were no details of what goods or services were actually delivered.在另一個實例，二憑單， 1 500萬美元和其他為270萬美元表明，支付供應商提供貨物和服務的，除有沒有詳細說明什麼樣的貨物或服務實際交付。
Over $2.7 billion was spent on providing equipment and services to the Iraqi Security Forces (ISF).超過27億美元是用於提供設備和服務的伊拉克安全部隊（治安部隊） 。 The auditors found that $2 billion of this was not properly accounted for.審計發現20億美元，這是沒有好好交代。 For example, 31 heavy tracked recovery vehicles costing $10.2 million were given to the ISF, but 18 of them could not be traced because identification numbers were not recorded.舉例來說， 31沉重的履帶式車輛的回收成本1 020萬美元給了工業支援資助計劃，但18日他們無法追查，因為身份證號碼沒有記錄。
