Version history

The register keeps changing after the book is fixed in print. Each entry below was added to this row in the order shown.

1. READ WHOLE 20 OCTOBER 2026 (R10). Built from Iraqi Ministry of Finance monthly reports via the US Treasury; dollars at ID 1,500/$ (2006) and ID 1,260/$ (2007). GAO 'cannot determine' the 2007 rate or the data's reliability (p.28); Treasury and State disputed it. A COMPARISON WITH A DIFFERENT COUNTRY, SIZE AND PERIOD, NEVER A FORECAST FOR SYRIA.
