The Agenda Behind the Hoax: What the Iraq War is About

[Heimdallr]

"The more likely explanation for the US invasion of Iraq is the neoconservative Bush Regime’s commitment to the defense of Israeli territorial expansion. There is no such thing as a neoconservative who is not allied with Israel. Israel hopes to steal all of the West Bank and southern Lebanon for its territorial expansion. An American colonial regime in Iraq not only buttresses Israel from attack, but also can pressure Syria and Iran from giving support to the Palestinians and Lebanese. The Iraqi war is a war for Israeli territorial expansion. Americans are dying and bleeding to death financially for Israel. Bush’s “war on terror” is a hoax that serves to cover US intervention in the Middle East in behalf of “greater Israel.”

Why, when we are not responsible? Europe has taken several tens of thousands of displaced Iraqis, while the USA -- the rogue and terrorist state responsible for this fiasco -- has taken hardly one or two thousand and drags its feet on the issue of Iraqi refugees. When is Europe and the rest of the world going to stand up to this nation of bastards and bullies (to paraphrase the late Hunter Thompson)?

I don't think it has anything to do with expanding Israel's size since Iraq since the gulf war was neutralized in attacking Israel. Especially since between Iraq and Israel you had Jordan, the most pro-Israeli of all Arab states.

The reasons for the war were:
- Saddam was a chief financier of Palestinian terrorists (every suicide bombers fmaily would receive over $10,000 from Iraq -- that is the equivalent of 10 years income for the average Palestinian family). It was hoped the financial incentive of Palestinians to become suicide bombers would cease -- since the invasion the number of attacks decreased.
- "Containing" Iran. The U.S. had a plicy of "containment" of communism after WWII, and the neocons in the U.S. hold the same view regarding Iran. That is the chief reason the U.S. got involved in Afghanistan, why accoridng to Musharraf U.S. officials threatened to bomb Pakistan after 9/11 if it did not become a U.S. ally, the increasing ampunt of military hardware the U.S. gives to Turkey and the billions the U.S. investing billions in Azerbaijan. The only Iranian neighbours not part of this were Armenia and Turkmenistan (both insignificant in containing Iran) and Iraq (this one being significant).
- Establishing an "air corridor" for Israel to attack Iran. The U.S. is unlikely to ever go into direct combat with Iran, but Israel would likley try do to Irans nuclear program what they did to Iraq's in the 1980s. Currently, with U.S. in full control of Iraq's airspace, effectively in control of Turkey's and Azerbaijans, and Jordan being a pro-Israeli state the air corridor exists.

The Jews are always scheming something and those are the boarders Theodore Herzl, the founder of Zionism, already considered to be the legitimate boarders of a future Israel. The population of Iraq has already been reduced by around 1/3 and the covered genocide of the people of Iraq is still ongoing. All the violence, the problems with access to water and electricity for the population, the diseases spreading, those are not failures on part of the Americans in sustaining order like the pseudo-progressive media claims but a deliberate genocide.
