Just been watching BBC1 Panorama. US represented by Richard Perle who is on the board of The Jerusalem Post. And I try not to be anti-semitic.
The first company awarded contract to re-constuct Iraq is Halliburton, formerly run by Dick Cheney, US vice-president.

And the secret second belongs to Donald Rumsfeld.

Suddenly this is a McWar with fries.

The question is, why are you guys surprised by this? Before the hostilities started the French were already being threatened with being kept out of the big financial carve-up.

For an insight into the ethics of Dubya and cabinet, read Michael Moore's Stupid White Men.

How can one have an insight into something that doesn't exist?

And why is it that whenever I see Donald Rumsfeld on TV I get the impression he's put his mother up for sale on Ebay?

Be careful---knowing Rumsfeld, he wouldn't put airholes in the packaging.
