‘It’s been three years since the U.S. launched its war
against Saddam Hussein and his weapons of mass destruction. Of course now
almost everybody knows there were no WMDs, and Saddam Hussein posed no threat
to the United States.
Though some of our soldiers
serving in Iraq still believe they are there because Saddam Hussein was
involved in 9/11, even the administration now acknowledges there was no
connection. Indeed, no one can be absolutely certain why we invaded Iraq. The
current excuse, also given for staying in Iraq, is to make it a democratic
state, friendly to the United States.
There are now fewer denials that
securing oil supplies played a significant role in our decision to go into Iraq
and stay there. That certainly would explain why U.S. taxpayers are paying such
a price to build and maintain numerous huge, permanent military bases in Iraq.
They’re also funding a new billion-dollar embassy – the largest in the world.’
