ONE OF THE MAJOR REASONS
FOR THE IRAQI WAR:
"A very good friend of the
Bush family, a very close friend of the Bush family, (and I'm working with
at lest one or two friends or advisors to every living president right now.)
Now this man told me in February of '03, listen very carefully - in February
of '03 -- that we would find no weapons of mass destruction, that we had to
go in there and free up the second largest proven oil reserve in the world
because with China industrializing at ten to fifteen percent a year, and
with India industrializing at close to that, there was simply not enough
fossil fuel to go around and we were headed toward a catastrophic shortage
within the next two to ten years if we didn't maximize the output of these
oil producing areas and that this is totally what we were going into Iraq
for.
Now, I almost laughed out loud
because here's a guy who's a close associate of the Bush family telling me
this personally. And it has turned out to be the case. There are no weapons
of mass destruction, there was no Al Qaeda presence in Iraq. This was
totally about, and I don't care how anyone wants to spin it, we have got to
- and from their point of view, if you want to keep these other technologies
secret, and you're looking at a world industrializing as rapidly as China
and other countries are, you have got to find other sources of fossil fuel,
and that's what this was about. Yet it's so tragic because we're sitting in
another parallel program in these black boxes, the means to take us
completely off the fossil fuel economy, and this is one of the greatest
crimes against humanity in the history of the human race.

A salute
to those U.S. soldiers who deserted and found their way to Canada. Those
young men, who refused combat in the Iraq War, not because of cowardice
but from conscience, were a pleasure to hear out on "60 Minutes" on
December 9, 2004. They are the future of our Nation and a model for a
new, peaceful world; they who realized that they could not blindly
follow order in an illegal war.
Shame on
those citizens of America, who in their blindness and ignorance demand
that the Canadian government sends the deserters back to US so they can
be shot under American law!

Robbing the Cradle of Civilization
- The following paper is only a short synopses of the historical events

The Invasion of Iraq: Dollar vs.
Euro
Re-denominating Iraqi oil in U. S. dollars, instead of the Euro
[Before the U.S. invasion of Iraq Saddam Hussein changed the oil purchase
currency from Dollars to Euro. This seriously threatened the U.S. oil
industry, and was a major reason to attack Iraq at that point. Thus,
thousands and thousands of innocent people and lots of soldiers have died.]
- If OPEC oil could be sold in other currencies, e.g. the euro, then U.S.
economic dominance-dollar imperialism or hegemony-would be seriously
challenged. More and more oil importing countries would acquire the euro as
their "reserve," its value would increase, and a larger amount of trade
would be transacted and denominated in euros. In such circumstances, the
value of the dollar would most likely go down, some speculate between 20-40
percent. -

The War in Iraq Was Based On a Lie - and Policing Basra Is an
Illusion
- What a shambles. What chaos. And how quickly it all seems to be

months ago that the very same British Army took me to see a jail in
the very same city. -
