Just gimme some truth - Yes, it IS blood for oil

It's always interesting when a person lies - to himself or to others. It reveals truths about a person they may not always realize. The best people for this are those who believe they can lie with impunity. (I lie expecting to get caught - it's what makes me so successful) A saw some ex-general today speaking of our sitting President saying the war was started in good conscience. The poor man just couldn't figure out why our Pres wasn't all pissed off at the people who deceived him into starting this war. What a fool. It's the sitting President who's the deceiver. And it has been all along.


This war was done for oil. Not a person in America who doesn't know that who wants to know. So here is where the lie becomes a mirror. For the general mentioned above, he wants to believe in the military as something just, his only concern was the logistics of the operation. Head in the sand. Those with a guilty conscience will immediately and emphatically accuse you of their crimes. Political people will call you political, traitors will call you a traitor, liars will call you a liar, etc. etc. It's amazing the sins that are revealed.


So here are some fun facts for those with an open mind: In our government's own words:

• Jun 1983: "Iraq probably plans to eventually obtain nuclear weapons."
• Nov 1983: "...almost daily use of chemical weapons."
• Dec 1983: Donald Rumsfeld sent to Iraq to "resume [US] diplomatic relations with Iraq" and discuss proposed Iraq-Jordan Aqaba pipeline
• Mar 1984: "The U.S. is to abstain on the resolution." Regarding United Nations resolution condemning Iraq for the use of Chemical weapons
• Mar 1984: "Iraq's chemical weapons will not change U.S. interest in pursuing closer U.S.-Iraq relations."
• Mar 1984: Rumsfeld returns to Iraq to discuss Aqaba pipeline
• 1983-1988: Iraqi warplanes drop over 13,000 chemical bombs.

Two years after Rumsfeld first pitched the plan, Saddam issued a terse rejection. But we continued to furnish chemical weapons materials up until the first Gulf war. Now, of course, we are all morally outraged by their use. (Shocked, shocked I tell you!)
