Jeremy Gantz May 5, 2008

I am ashamed to admit I barely passed Z Magazine's new 10-question Iraq quiz. I was hoping the answer to this question was 'b': 2) If the U.S. spent $1 per day in Iraq, how much would go to repair and humanitarian assistance? a) 7 cents b) 13 cents c) fraction of one penny d) 1 penny Of course, I was wrong. Try your luck.
