Does this seem a little cheap to anyone else?

BAGHDAD, Iraq - A blistering series of attacks, coming nearly hourly, left seven U.S. soldiers wounded in and around the capital on Tuesday, while the U.S. led provisional authority announced a $2,500 reward for information leading to the arrest of anyone who kills a coalition soldier or Iraqi police officer.

1. When $60 a month...
...is a little above average salary-wise in Iraq...that doesn't sound so bad.

8. doesn't sound so bad?
Considering that you stand the chance of being gun down in your home or being blown up at the store, 2,5000 ain't nothing. And it surely is chump change and insulting when you consider that it's there to try and protect soldiers lives.

Hell, they wouldn't turnn in Osama for 25 million. The whole Bush operation is just pathetic.
