Serves dummy Americans right.
[Read the article: Neocons and the truth: Bitter enemies to the end]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]At this point in American politics regarding what the neocon warmonger/imperialists/colonialists seek in West Asia,Central Asia and around Persian Gulf is a very expensive and ruinous level of American sourced,financed and trooped militarism.
Bush/Cheney regime really must envy powers Hitler gave himself for war and throwing world into depths of hell on earth. They are already war criminals so why not go for broke? Bastards.
One could hope that there were/was enough fact/truth based desire in Pentagon somewhere that would permit anywhere from five to perhaps as many as twenty Pentagon high-ups to just come out and denounce in plain street english that AEI is one phucked up bunch.
Congress seemingly so taken in by Israeli propaganda and raw political threats that it is not capable of speaking out about insanity of expanding American Iraq Debacle into Iran or across Persian Gulf.
This is insanity. Surely doing so will compel either Russia or China to engage. How can they not? Whether such engagement is overt or covert it must take place.
In ways that seem contrary one could almost conclude that these warmonger bastards will only be fully exposed for the frauds and puffed up little minded fools they are if all hell is let loose around Persian Gulf.
Americans just have not suffered enough yet since March 2003.
This American learning curve regarding these neocon maniacs is crazy slow.
Two hundred $$ a barrel oil? Hell--lets make it three or four or perhaps five hundred a barrel.
Serves dummy Americans right.

dubious claims
[Read the article: Neocons and the truth: Bitter enemies to the end]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Not in habit of posting mulitple times in one GG comments thread but comments about oil not being at or near center of American Occupation of Iraq,Americans kissing up to Saudis or Americans floating lots of expensive naval vessels around Persian Gulf seems quite wishful or some kind of deny reality ploy.
Take oil out of Iraq,out of Saudi Arabia and out of Persian Gulf and what remains there for Americans to be throwing billions upon billiions of $$ and taking lots of dead back home for?
Or are several super military bases Americans have put up in Iraq at great cost there to contain Russia or China?
These persistent "Iraq is not about oil" or "oil is too vital to war or occupy over" or "Americans are the good guys in West Asia and must be there for good hearted reasons" should be checked at the door when topics of Iraq,Iran or Persian Gulf warmongering are being discussed.
As with talk of how Americans won great victory over Iraq in 2003 because Americans were so awesome as warriors. Iraq was a hollowed out shell ripe for a easy push-over. Crowing about having done the pushing over as American military types did/do is dubious claim for/of honor in battle.

Hoe and pull your own weeds out first America
[Read the article: CNN, the Pentagon's "military analyst program" and Gitmo]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]So what has President Bush said or done? He is the guy who runs Pentagon these days or has since Jan.2001 is he not?
Has President Bush gotten any hot and heavy 'Rev. Wright' styled media exposure and high repeat/rotation/multi-instant replay 'lets talk about Rev.Wright some more' media handling?
If this had taken place under a President Obama would media be so complacent with silence or holding off any reveal/expose?
Does anyone ever go to jail over this? Laws were broken correct? Rules were violated correct?
What does John McCain have to say about this?
Seems some people at Pentagon should be losing jobs,careers and suffering over this. Has anyone been fired or taken to jail yet at Pentagon?
Without real and timely consequences flowing who is given cause to not do this again?
In light of current ramping up of 'fly in and phuck Iran up good' American warmongering going on again which is so reliant on truth and fact being given full slice and dice treatment it would be very useful to see some people being arrested,going to trial and being sent to prison over this Pentagon propaganda scandal somewhere.
Otherwise why keep any laws on the books?
Propaganda is big and oft used tool of despots and dictatorial regimes.
Who in American government is going with idea that this conduct in America does not deserve full,fast and furious reaction,prosecution and consequence?
Recently in San Diego,California around one hundred were arrested in mass raids on a campus for American drug law violation/breaking. Seems to me same arrest activity should be taking place in WashingtonDC as well these days. Or is American law an instrument that only applies to some Americans sometimes dependent on which Americans are being subjected to rule of law and consequences for breaking/violating rule of law.
Pentagon should be cleaned out,zero timed and put on several short and stiff conduct/performance review leashes that last a good ten years for starters.
American media should be subject to full scrutiny as to who let this take place and now refuse to cover why it took place.
Americans have no business preaching to others around this planet about rotted and decayed government and governance.
Hoe and pull your own weeds out first America.
