Cheney Once Pushed to Lift Iran Sanctions

i don't have the time or the ambition to
research this but FWIW...

there was evidence in links posted here a couple
of years ago having to do with the PNAC documents
and some energy forecasts and sudies by the James Baker
Institute, among other things that revealed a
clear goal of these oil and gas boys was to get
the sanctions on IRAQ lifted ASAP. (i realize that
your post was about IRAN sanctions but this is also
relevant).

the perfect way to get them lifted (and the fastest)
was to invade and depose saddam and then make the
plea to the UN to have them lifted. i was amused at
how fast this plea was made to the UN (it was almost
immediately after the "mission accomplished" show
on the carrier - long before saddam was apprehended).

i'm sure there are people who could tell you what's
going on here much better than i (lurqer would be one
if he were still talking).

it's not a conspiracy that i'm going to investigate
or pursue but it's one that i saw enough public evidence
on to believe.
