BASRA, Iraq - Attacks on oil pipelines forced all oil exports from southern Iraq to a complete halt, a senior Iraqi oil official said Monday.


Oil flows out of the country's key southern pipelines ceased late Sunday, an official from South Oil Co. said on condition of anonymity.

The official said that exports were not likely to resume for at least one week, he said.

1. How many barrels has Iraq exported since the U.S. takeover?
And where has that money gone?

Is there a site that tells me a week by week or month by month total for Iraq barrels exported?
