Harper's Magazine investigation reveals how Big Oil vanquished the neo-cons - and OPEC is the winner.

"…For months, the State Department officially denied the existence of this 323-page plan for Iraq's oil …."

Some conspiracy nuts believe the Bush Administration had a secret plan to control Iraq's oil. In fact, there were TWO plans. In a joint investigation with BBC Television Newsnight, Harper's Magazine has uncovered a hidden battle over Iraq's oil. It began right after Mr. Bush took office - with a previously unreported plot to invade Iraq.

According to insiders and to documents obtained from the State Department, the neocons, once in command, are now in full retreat. As of today, Iraq's system of oil production, after a year of failed free-market experimentation, is being re-created almost entirely on the lines originally laid out by Saddam Hussein. Even Hussein's Baathist technocrats are back at the helm of the Ministry of Oil and the State Oil Marketing Organization. Under the quite direction of US oil company executives working with the State Department, the Iraqis have DISCARDED the neocon/bush vision of a liassez-faire, privatized oil operation in favor of one shackled to quotas set by OPEC, which have been key to the 121% rise in oil prices since the begining of 2002.( BUSH IS TO BLAME FOR HIGH GAS PRICES!!!!) This rise has cost the US economy 12% of its GDP, or 1/4 of its total growth since 2002.


Now we know why bush is sucking on the Royal Saudi terrorist's tit at the Crawford Pig Farm today!...because he is a miserable total failure! everything he touches turns to SHIT!

BUSH IS TO BLAME FOR THE HIGH PRICE OF GASOLINE AND HEATING OIL!!!!
