The Iraq that existed before May 19, 2003 really no longer exists.
With an estimated one million Iraqi's killed by the American-caused war and ensuing chaos, and another four million turned into refugees-this in a country of 24 million-with the country effectively divided into at least three irreconcilable parts, with Turkey invading and attacking the Kurdish north, and Iran bolstering the Shia majority, the land once known as Babylon is now a classic "failed state" held together only by the continued presence of the American military, whose very presence, ironically, is also the prime cause of all this misery and mayhem.

One day the American Green Zone in Iraq might be overtaken by Iraqis.
Not by Al-Qaeda, but by Iraqis.
This Green Zone will be like the Fall of Saigon---not the Alamo.
Or maybe not.
Maybe the Iraq War will be more like The Alamo than the end of the Vietnam War.
Bush & Co are leaving the White House in a few hundred days, but they are taking with them crimes that they committed in the names of freedom and democracy.
Liberation?
They murdered Iraq.
They (and President William Jefferson Clinton and President George Herbert Walker) have covered the planet with the radioactive isotopes of their Depleted Uranium Weapons.
To save the Earth from Terrorism they TERRORIZED and IRRADIATED the planet.
The pie that was cooked in Iraq is now a very burnt one.
Senator John McCain wants that pie to cook longer.
More Americans and Iraqis will need to die...
Until there
Is
VICTORY.

IT'S THE OIL STUPID!
