Thanks for the web links Mr. Hammons. The “Mistakes or ‘Plans’” on Iraq and the so heavily executed “war on terror” operation.

Indeed, this has been the 50 trillion dollar question, of the past several years, and at first, it was really difficult gage between sheer incompetence and/or “malicious intent”.

So, it’s taken a lot of time to sort through, at least objectively, because the “tracks” have been covered for so long. Knowing though, that at least invasion and occupation of Iraq had in fact been long in the making, is the thing that at least gave us an early indication of how much was “planned” and how much was just the normal imcompetence of a dimmwitted president.

But then, we always knew that Bush was really dumb, but that Cheney was really NOT. So, that’s my perspective of how all of the war mongering has actually been “both”. It was planned long ago, (just like all of those war ships hovering around the Persian Gulf now, with their bomber jets positioned on Iran)but they’ve made all of these horrific “bungles” of their own secret agenda.

I’ve included a link to another piece on the “other” Army, the Private/Shadow Army run by the various contractors, but primarily Blackwater, in Iraq. Some 300 of them have died as well, but now…a handful of them are running into a really GIGANTIC persecution from their former employer. 4 of them that were killed in Iraq are having their estates sued by Blackwater, the contractor that employed them. It’s pretty awful. Doesn’t get much worse.

That’s all they wanted.

This bloodbath is what the civilian leaders in the Bush-Cheney administration and their associates have created.

Our troops might be able to have some positive effect, but the many apparent mistakes and deceptions involved in the invasion and occupation of Iraq may be very hard or impossible to fix.

I hope our troops achieve some kind of success and I pray for them.

For those civilian leaders in the Bush-Cheney administration, I hope they receive justice.

Food for thought in the articles . . .
