Doug > The same people involved in the Iran/Contra affair are in power now. The same people involved in the looting of Indonesia. The same people who put saddam in power and then financed and supplied chemical weapons and intel to Iraq in the Iran/Iraq war. Of course, all that is true but what we see today in the Mid East is different if only for the reason that Israel's strategic interests rather than American capitalism appears to be dominant motive. jewishvoiceforpeace.org >>“Most of the members of Cheney's inner circle were neoconservative ideologues, who combined hawkish American triumphalism with an obsession with Israel. This does not mean that the war was fought for Israel, although it is undeniable that Israeli concerns played an important role. The actual motivation behind the war was complex, and Cheney's team was not the only one in the game. The Bush administration is a coalition of disparate forces -- country club Republicans, realists, representatives of oil and other corporate interests, evangelicals, hardball political strategists, right-wing Catholics, and neoconservative Jews allied with Israel's right-wing Likud party. Each group had its own rationale for going to war with Iraq.”<<
