stockman scott!! and lurqer dude too re: the article you linked to at: commondreams.org that piece is one of the smoking-est guns i have yet seen unmasking the hidden motives of the current administration in their foreign and domestic polictical agenda. it's all about OIL industry interests. the article you linked to on commondreams.org gave an overview... but no evidence. it, in turn, provided a link to another website... rice.edu ...the james a. baker III institute for public policy of rice university that is reeking of evidence. there are studies and reports galore. i wanted a view that was pre-september 11, 2001 - even pre-bush admininistration. with a little searching i found this: Studies BAKER INSTITUTE STUDY Number 14 - November 2000 Published by the James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy of Rice University in conjunction with a program co-sponsored by the Petroleum Industry Research Foundation Running on Empty? Prospects for Future World Oil Supplies bakerinstitute.org WAIT! ...don't read it yet. first hold these questions in your head: 1. did it ever seem strange to you that when 19 saudi arabians hijacked four airliners and flew them into targets in NY and washington D.C. we decided that we had to obliterate the taliban in afghanistan???????????????????????? 2. did it ever seem strange to you that as soon as they were wiped out we "moved on" as if they were our target all along (not osama bin laden)??????? 3. did it make sense to you that where we "moved on" to was iraq????? 4. did you know that the baker study and the PIRF - (Petroleum Industry Research Foundation) proclaimed that the UN sanctions imposed on iraq were detrimental to US energy and oil interests? 5. can you think of any way that the united states could get the UN to lift the sanctions on iraq???? B-I-N-G-O!!!!!!!!! OK. NOW go read the above study paying particular attention to the section on "energy security and politics" and the "conclusion" and what the study says about the taliban (remember - this was prepared and published a year before 9/11) and what it says about the UN sanctions on iraq. it's long but NOT as long as the PNAC's strategy for a new american century and i think it's just as important a document in understanding the hidden agenda (read OIL industry interests) behind the foreign and domestic policy actions that are being played out by the bush administration under the public guise of a war on terrorism and a quest to rid the world of weapons of mass destruction owned by tiny impotent countries that don't have any, and have no means to deliver them either. thought for today: "We've liberated the people of Iraq. Quick, lift the sanctions, lift the sanctions." -GWB -elpolvo
