11. The UN was suppose to
clean up the mess Bush made or, at least, keep the blame game going while the Bush fascists got rich off of government contracts. The prob is, hee, hee, the UN and the world community are growing wise to this game and they are not willing to go into Iraq. Bush is having his feet held to the fire and this situation degenerates the responsiblity, if the UN and foreign nations hold to their present course, will continue to fall on Bush.

Bush cannot fix Iraq because his idealogy is anti-govermnent, anti-democratic. The best he could have hoped for was to shift the responsiblity for the Iraq disaster onto a third party or parties.

Here is a link on Chalabi's business interests:

James Woolsey

....A long-time supporter of war on Iraq and PNAC and Jinsa member, the former director of the CIA has been named as the likely minister of information in the new Iraq. His business interests have included: the arms company British Aerospace; the Titan Corporation, which provides military interpreters and DynCorp, which provides bodyguards for Hamid Karzai, the Afghani president and has installed a police force monitoring service in Bosnia. DynCorp is being sued for human rights violations in Bosnia, environmental health disasters in Ecuador and fraud in America. He was a partner in the law firm, Shea and Gardner, which acts as foreign agents for the Iraqi National Congress, led by Chalabi. He is vice-president of Booz Allen Hamilton, a corporate consultant firm, which won a contract to develop a computer model of post-war Iraqi society after the first Gulf war I. Booz Allen is also closely linked to the DPB. He said that "only fear will re-establish respect for us ... we need a little bit of Machiavelli". He has also said: "We really don't need the Europeans. Anyways, they will be the first in line patting us on the back following our success and saying they were with us all along."
