<<<not an easy read.>>> Yeah, it's about the size of a full length novel. I've mostly just skimmed it myself to find the key pieces. What I find most interesting is this report is available to the public and is signed by those who planned the Iraq invasion. The report was published 6 months before 9/11, defines in no uncertain terms the motivation for attacking Iraq, and it's been completely ignored by the media. The big winners on the Iraq war are the war profiteering energy traders, defense contractors, oil companies and investment bankers. American tax payers are out several hundred billion dollars, not to mention the hit due to sky rocketing energy prices. On Rumsfeld's PNAC (Project for a New American Century) website, Rumsfeld openly stated before 9/11 that what was needed to propel their agenda was a new Pearl Harbor. So far the "war on terror" has put an oil pipeline in Afghanistan, not to mention returning around $200 billion a year in Afghan heroine to the black market, and has put US oil companies in a position to manipulate oil production from the world's second largest oil reserves. And of course the war profiteering Bush buddy defense contractors are in windfall profit heaven. Isn't it amazing how much money and power "terrorists" handed to the Bush Cartel over night with 9/11?
