Building a Case Against Iraq
Dear Reader,
According to today's Washington Post, the Pentagon is collecting
evidence of a"linkage" between Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda
organization and other international terror net-works so it can have
an excuse to attack Iraq and remove Saddam Hussein. Did someone say
Gulf of Tonkin?
This would be a major escalation of the war and could quite easily
destabilize the region. The moderates in the Bush administration,
led by Colin Powell, are against such action. But expect the hawks
to have their way nonetheless. Unlike Afghanistan, which is a barren
piece of mountains and desert, Iraq is a major oil power with a
considerable standing army. Iraq has 100 billion barrels of proven
reserves and 40 billion barrels of probable oil reserves.
Meanwhile, a newly published book claims that Osama bin Laden met an
Iranian intelligence officer in the mid-1990s to try and forge an
alliance to conduct a terror campaign against the United States. The
book by Robert Baer, a former CIA operative in the Middle East, is
called See No Evil.
If the United States were to mount an invasion of Iraq, it would
shake many of America's strategic relationships in the Middle East
and would double, perhaps triple the price of crude oil.
Also die prophetischen Fähigkeiten, die wir hier entwickelt haben, werden langsam beänstigend. Ah, Osama hat also Kontakte zu irakischen Kreisen und hat sich auch, und jetzt wird es erst richtig interessant, mit Iranern getroffen. Darf man die Frage stellen, mit wem der CIA so Kontakt pflegt. Es dürfte eine Liste der übelstens Subjekte sein, die auf dem Erdenball krauchen. Aber sie sind die Großmacht und sind damit per Definition im Recht.
Gute Nacht!
