Iraq: Divide and Rule, 'Ethnic Cleansing Works'

By Enver Masud

The Milli Gazette Online

Polls by the State Department and independent researchers show that Iraqis favor an immediate U.S. pullout, meanwhile, an "independent commission", according to the Sunday Times, "may recommend carving up Iraq into three highly autonomous regions".

We believe that the commission's recommendation will have little to do with the welfare of the Iraqis. Their recommendations will have much to do with expanding U.S. control of the energy resources of the Middle East and Central Asia.

In a letter to President Clinton in 1998, the Project for the New American Century (PNAC) -- the global domination project of the neoconservatives -- urged him to remove Saddam Hussein from power in order to secure "our vital interests in the Gulf" that holds "a significant portion of the world's supply of oil." This probably wouldn't happen, they said, unless "some catastrophic and catalyzing event -- like a new Pearl Harbor" took place.

September 11, 2001 became the new Pearl Harbor.

The National Security Strategy of the United States of America, issued by the Bush administration in September 2002, said: "The events of September 11, 2001, opened vast, new opportunities." But the decision to invade Iraq had been made much earlier.

1. Exactly. The idea that BushCo didn't foresee this violence is bollocks.

It was predicted by many, here and elsewhere, before Bush** invaded Iraq, no degree or creative imagination required. His own father knew what the result of overthrowing Hussein would be -- and so stopped short of that -- during the first Gulf War.

This was intentional. The lack of adequate troops to secure the country and streets, the false flag ops to stir up tensions...BushCo have merely got exactly what they wanted so far. And they're going to mine the situation for every last bloody $ they can.
