lurqer, Re: While Halliburton et al rack it in, the money never seems to get to where it's needed. Do you think that the genocidal policy of destroying basic sanitation that was a Dept. of Death plan in 1991, gulflink.osd.mil and a DoD operation during the sanctions regime would be ended by a mere cessation of Saddam Hussein's regime? I am absolutely certain that the lack of sanitation in Iraq, especially in the hospitals, is precisely what the DoD planning documents still call for today. Weakening the population in Iraq is a war aim. In the French and Indian War, the enemy was infected with small pox infested blankets. Today, we have much more sophisticated means to achieve the same end. I.e., population reduction of the enemy. Bloody massacres raise too many eyebrows among the NGOs, do-gooders and other nation's leaders. Attrition is the key to our policy, a slow eating away at the health of an entire nation. Sinister, really. But that's the cost of Empire. Jolly Good Fun this Empire Building! :)
