Do they have any oil in Pakistan?

That's what my friend asked me when I said that there were so far 18,000 earthquake dead reported in Pakistan alone and that the USA is donating the price of a yacht (a hundred grand; source BBC News).

As I write, the cost of the war in Iraq ticker in the sidebar of this blog says that the USA has so far spent a few bucks short of $200 billion.
