U.S goals in Iraq -

Outside of the first comment about organ size (editor may have read too much email spam) this is a pretty good summary -

***************

Papers across Africa questioned the rationale for invading Iraq. The Mail & Guardian of Johannesburg said the war "is about revenge; about American penis size as much as American bellies. It is an object lesson to the Islamic world in the aftermath of the Twin Towers and a shot across the bows of the other great powers with interests in the Gulf. It is an opportunity for hard-eyed generals and their industrial suppliers to test new military toys. The last thing it is really about is the liberation of the Iraqi people." The paper added, "There is no reason for thinking that a Pax Americana is desired by ordinary Iraqis or will improve their lot."
