[Iraqi Peace Dollars ]
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

EXCERPT from Bob Herbert's article:

" Companies like Halliburton and Schlumberger and the Bechtel Group
understand this conflict a
heck of a lot better than most of the men and
women who will fight and die in it, or the armchair
patriots who'll be watching on CNN and cheering
them on."

It's not unpatriotic to say that there are billions of
dollars to be made in Iraq and that the gold rush
is already under way. It's simply a matter of fact.

Back in January, an article in The Wall Street
Journal noted: "With oil reserves second only to
Saudi Arabia's, Iraq would offer the oil industry
enormous opportunity should a war topple
Saddam Hussein."
