Reply #52: Actually, there was a lot of planning for post-war Iraq [View All]

[quaoar]

Here are the Top 10 plans drawn up by the Bush junta:

1. Once the ticker-tape parades were over, it would be on to Damascus!
2. Baghdad is nice, but "Real Men Go To Teheran!"
3. Plans were drawn up for the best route across Syria to get Iraqi oil to the Mediterranean Sea.
4. Sites were scouted out for the new Israeli Embassy in Baghdad.
5. The Pentagon was trying to make sure they had enough trucks to haul off all the rose petals that would be showered on our troops by grateful Iraqis.
6. Many hours were spent calculating how deep the tax cuts would need to be to finance the war in Iraq.
7. Iraqi towns were to be renamed. Tikrit woiuld become Halliburtonia. Fallujah would be Perleville.
8. Laws would have to be passed -- to avoid confusion -- limiting the number of Iraqi infants that could be named after George Bush.
9. Hotels and other accommodations would have to be provided to handle all the Christian Coalition missionaries who would convert millions of grateful Iraqis.
10. God will provide.
