1. The Mission is to hold down the production of Iraq oil so that |
|
....to limit total oil supply, thus forcing up prices and escalating profits for Big Oil, run the U.S. into hugh debt, bankrupt the country and let private bankers and wealthy foreign interests steal U.S. assets. That is the Mission of Bush's and Cheney's war!

2. This is an important fact to keep in mind |
|
that it was NEVER the mission *'to defeat the insurgency'*. As long GWB, can move the goal a little further down the football field we will never have a clear mission or reasonable expected outcome. I remember Cheney, on the early morning talk shows saying he thought we would be in Iraq a few weeks at the most. This insanity makes my head swim.
