[Peace-discuss] Wolfwitz: War was about oil...Let's hear it for George the war criminal

[The Spirit of Seattle]

Hey all --
  I was looking around online and found this story and found it rather 
interesting.
  "The US deputy defence secretary, Paul Wolfowitz - who has already 
undermined Tony Blair's position over weapons of mass destruction (WMD) by 
describing them as a "bureaucratic" excuse for war - has now gone further by 
claiming the real motive was that Iraq is "swimming" in oil."

  Looks like the impeachment movement and the anti-war movement were right 
with this ficticious war about "Iraqi freedom" and "WMD's".  Too bad it was 
thousands of lives too late.

Solidarity,
Neil

See, everyone got crazy over the technology, and it was pretty incredible.  Watching missiles fly down air vents, pretty unbelievable.  But couldn't we feasibly use that same technology to shoot food at hungry people?  Know what I mean?  Fly over Ethiopia, "There's a guy that needs a banana!"  SHOOP!  The Stealth Banana! Smart Fruit!
