18. Bottom line is, PNAC wanted this war, Israel wanted this war, and
Bush/Cheney's Texas oil buddies wanted the war. All of the top principals of PNAC (Perle, Wolfowitz, Feith, Bolton, Abrams, et al) are allied with Sharon and his Likudniks, in fact, most of them have worked for Israel at one time or another. Throw in Cheney's greasy friends, and you have the making of one evil bunch of fascists.

Likewise, there are many "friends of Israel" among media owners and mangers, and though the story has been out for some time that Bush and his neonazicons have lied through their teeth to promote the war, the media has protected them, and buried every attempt to expose them. At some point though, one would hope for critical mass, where these people will no longer be able to contain the story.

An even bigger question, is what will these same media people do in the run up to the election? Will they side with Israel's "best friend", Bush, and promote him, along with Sharon and his allies in AIPAC? Exactly how much are we willing to let Israel control our foreign policy, and vis-a-vis their friends in PNAC and the media, involve itself in the running of our government, and our elections?
