Whatever position you take in regards to the invasion of Iraq there is one clear fact that can not be debated. In the same way that one would release potential energy from a stick of dynamite by lighting its fuse the Bush/PNAC administration has lit a fuse in Iraq releasing its catastrophic potential.
Saddam Hussein’s Iraq was in a sense a stick of dynamite, or more accurately a bundle of dynamite sticks. Saddam personally was responsible for preventing many of the fuses from being lit. He kept many of these fuses dry by using brutal tactics however.
Enter the Bush/PNAC administration with their torch of freedom. They stormed into Iraq lighting fuse after fuse. We stand now watching the fireworks show brought to you by the actions of the Bush/PNAC administration.
One has to wonder if the actual goal of their operation was to light these fuses. It seems as if they did everything in their power to light each fuse and they did everything in their power to prevent anyone or anything from doing anything to keep the fuses dry. Now they have their excuse for keeping military presence in Iraq and they have their excuse for keeping the river of no-bid contract $billions flowing into their friends pockets.
This administration seems to have set a clear pattern where they get to do things that nobody would ever agree to only because of the existence of excuses of their own making. From 9/11 to the self manufactured instability in Iraq a trail of Bush/PNAC administration manufactured excuses pave the only possible path for their otherwise unacceptable agenda. Think about it!
