4. In 2003 I heard a man on NPR a former intel or diplomat ffrom Iraq say;

That their is 103 different sides in Iraq and that it would be a nightmare for
us and the Iraqi people if we invaded.

Welcome to hell.

7. They believed the neo con shit too .....

but oil was a factor ..... no doubt. Paul O'Neil *'s former Sec. of the Treasury
wrote that he saw maps of Iraqi oil fields on Cheney's desk in 2001.

And for the first 4 months they pumped the oil un-metered from Iraq.
