Surely you are not that naive. |
Are you implying that Bush invaded Iraq to funnel billions of dollars into a company that in which held no vested interest? Did he tell Saddam to destroy all of the oil wells in his own country or did he tell Iran to send weapons there to kill the Iraqi people? Or perhaps Al Qaeda really is under the control of Bush so that Halliburton has continued work in Iraq.
Yeah maybe I am naive enough to believe that the Americans went to Iraq to depose a dictator and stay to ensure a working democratic government.

Maybe I am slow but I can not remember when the Northern Alliance was being called terrorists?
