I am already reading some stuff that I fundamentally disagree with. Phillips tries to tie Oil interests to the war in Iraq, as the sole reason and motivation.
He says that from Rumsfelf to Blair, they all lied when they denied that this was so. Glad he could tell me…
here are my questions to him and anyone else like him.
1- Why didn’t oil-man H Bush carry out this agenda when he had the chance.
2- If we have an agreement with the Saud (under whom the Muhajeedin garthered their strenght and from where the Al-Qaeda leadership coalesced) over oil, why not with a second strong-man?
3- He says that we wanted to take our troops out of Saudi Arabia, where they were breeding resent, and post them, for the same reason, oil, in Iraq. Why would any idiot (other than the fact that they are idiots) imagine that muslims would be “ok” with American troops occupying any muslim land?
