The cities of Fallujah, Mosul, Ramadi, Tikrit, Hawija, Hartbeh, Hit, Jorf al-Sakhr and Baiji are the largest cities in terms of damage, some of which reach about 80%.

The infrastructure destroyed was not worth 100-200 $Billion! In My Opinion!

We've seen the photos over the years of adobe mud homes and sub standard buildings.

The adobe mud homes are going to be upgraded to DESIGNER adobe mud homes. Definitely going to cost BIG Spondoolies, however, there better be oversight on where the goes. That's  a powerful heap of $$$$ to be throwing at one of the most corrupt countries on the planet.

 

The HISTORY lost to the world is incalculable - as a former Anthropologist many, many moons ago, watching ISIS destroy historic treasures with such vigor made my blood boil.
