Does anyone have info on the 'permament bases' in Iraq?

[Rick Myers]

Locations? Size? Contractors...

Not the Embassy, but the alleged BIG bases being constructed...

Curious as to location.

3. Check out Global Security.Org

http://www.globalsecurity.org/index.html

Its the best neutral military news site out there as far as I know. Use their search engine for Iraq bases and you'll find some reading.

6. Be sure to check the Quaker's site that got them spied on by the NSA

http://www.fcnl.org/iraq/bases.htm

and compare it to Cheney's energy committee map of Iraqi oil fields

http://www.judicialwatch.org/IraqOilMap.pdf

and the 1973 Nixon plan to seize Saudi oil fields

8. Hey, that Quaker site is good! If you cross reference that with...

...the very detailed Global Security Iraq bases info, you've got lots to work with.

See the Iraq bases stuff here: http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/facility/iraq.htm
