Everyday we're confronted with the ongoing horror in Iraq. The continual unfolding carnage of the "civil war" is as hideous a thing as any of us would ever want to see in our lives, and there seems to be no end in sight.This is the "Long War", the "First War of The 20th Century", the "War on Whatever".
We rode into the war on a pack of lies and now were stuck in a military quagmire.
If the troops stay there'll be bloodshed and massacre, if they leave it'll be the same.
How could the American administration, with all it's money and advisers and experts and think-tanks, have botched up this war so badly? How could things have gone so horrendously awry for the worlds most powerful military machine and sole superpower?
Are they all on Nitrous Oxide?
I think we first have to take a close look at the so called objectives and aims of the invasion of Iraq.
Firstly we were told about the WMDs and the link to Al Qa'eda and 9/11. None were found and the rest was all a pack of lies.
Secondly, the removal of Saddam Hussein, the evil dictator. Well he's certainly been toppled from power hasn't he?
Bringing Democracy to the Iraqi people. Now this is where we should all sit up and take notice because whenever America brings Democracy to anyone it usually comes accompanied by war, bloodshed, terror, murder, rape, robbery and vile gangsterism. With this in mind I think we can say without a doubt that American style democracy has succeeded in Iraq.
(It's interesting to note here that America itself is not a Democracy, it's a Republic)
What does democracy mean to corporate America? It means that if you do as we say and sell us not just your own soul, but the souls of your people and country as well, then we'll call you democratic.
We will call you a moderate state and heap praise, finance and weaponry on you if you capitulate; and sanction you and attack you as a rouge state if you chose to follow you own independent path.
Democracy, in the modern argot, is nothing more than the submission to American corporate might and influence.
So be wary and attentive whenever you hear the word democracy.
In many ways the invasion and occupation of Iraq has been relatively successful.
Installing a Vichy style government and giving it the illusion of power and legitimacy has been easy.
Iraq has very swiftly descended into a state of civil war roughly dividing the country along sectarian lines which in turn has led to further a destabilising of society leaving the population traumatised and desperate for many years to come.
This, in my opinion, has been no accident.
I believe it was the administrations intention to cause wide spread panic and a complete collapse within the whole region not just Iraq. A sectarian civil war was always the aim. The hope is that the war will spread throughout the entire middle east with Sunni and Shia killing each other instead of uniting as Muslims and brothers and fighting their invaders .
Efforts have even been made to kick start the violence.
Remember Basra? The British army's attempt to free two of it's soldiers from an Iraqi police cell? The two soldiers were in fact British Secret Service agents who had been arrested by the Iraqi police for driving around Basra shooting civilians and planting bombs while dressed as Al Qa'eda insurgents!
That's only one example of false flag operations in Iraq that we know of. How many have gone undetected and blamed upon either Sunnis or Shia or the Iranians?
It an old tactic. Divide and conquer. Although we should update it to divide, supply and conquer because a lot of guns, bombs and ammunition are being sold by someone.....
And this is just one step in the war agenda. What we are witnessing at the moment is an attempt to weaken home rule among the Arab states so that they can be controlled and directed more easily by western and trans-national military-industrial-corporations and their media and governmental lackeys.
Controlling the middle east will mean controlling most of the worlds supply of oil.
The ultimate prize.
It's the control of energy supplies that is key here. If the plan is to conquer the whole world, and make no mistake, that's what this is about, "Full Spectrum Dominance" as they say in the PNAC report, then you need fuel for your war machine first, before you do anything.
Without securing the production and supply of oil and natural gas the whole imperial PNAC adventure falls apart, this is another reason that the Bush cabal is wholeheartedly staying the course with the war in Iraq. Add to that the fact that companies like Halliburton, Blackwater and KBR are making a fortune along with members of the administration and the signatories of PNAC, you begin to understand why there will be no peace in the middle east or the rest of the world for many decades to come.
