The Iraqi government says they want us to finance their troops, aren't they collecting billions from their oil sales? If so, shouldn't they have plenty of cash for their own troops, without asking us for money?

What oil money? Radical Islam cannot allow an elective republic and their continual destruction of Iraqi oil production is the best way to strangle the hopes of the Iraqi people (plus it’s easy).
As far as what little production does happen, the Iraqi government gets its share the same way the US government does in the US, by taxes and royalties. French and Russian interests owned most of the oil production prior to Iraq II so I suspect that is where the actual profits go.

yes the iraqi government does see that money.but its not much at all since the level of oil production is very,very low. a lot of the oil industry is still in need of repair for it to feel the benefits of its oil production

I'm not sure, but it would seem to me that Iraqi oil production isn't government sanctioned. meaning, the government would never see any of the profits from its sales.
