It's Been Four, Long, Bloody, Murdering Years...With Still No Reason "WHY??"

On the occasion of the fourth anniversary of the War In Iraq...some thoughts:
It has been four long, bloody, expensive, murdering years...with still no reason "WHY?"!

Even now..now that there has been substantial evidence that the President, the Vice President, and other high-ranking members of the Bush administration misled Congress and the American people regarding the decision to go to war with Iraq... and misstated and manipulated intelligence information regarding the justification for said war...

...that there were no WMD's...no poison gas...no ties to Al Qaeda and to 9-11...

....the burning question ... that everybody, including you!, seems to be deliberately avoiding... remains: Why?!

Why did we sacrifice all of those innocent lives?!

Lewis "Scooter" Libby, et al ... with publicly stated plans to "Democratize" the Middle East ( Translation: to get rid of the Sheiks and the Dictators and "privatize" their oil fields, which the Sheiks and Dictators had "nationalized" in the '70's, throwing out "Big Oil" {The American Oil Companies} and their ownership of those fields, and forming OPEC ).

The political action group's goal was to change those Middle East regimes under the pretext of "Democratizing" their countries so that "Big Oil" could once again attain ownership of their oil fields and their oil. The group was a "front" for America's "Big Oil"!

The group was called:

"Project For A New American Century"

Many of its original founders are currently (or were) high-placed, decision-making, influential members of the Bush Administration!

...see exactly who its original founders were...and read their "Statement of Principles"! Peruse their site...

And learn about their veiled plans to destroy OPEC for "Big Oil."

Unfortunately, Saddam Hussein had other plans:
