Iraqi Oil
One more tonight...
Today's paper brought news that, despite knowing of a Pentagon report prepared last fall (yes, well before the war) that Iraq's oil production capacity was severely reduced by a decade of trade embargoes, Cheney, Rumsfled, Wolfowitz, et al, continued to tell the American people and Congress that Iraq'a post war oil production would pay for Iraq's reconstruction. So, reduced by 25% before the war, damaged and disrupted by the war, and this industry was supposed to pay for the reconstruction? What kind of fantasy land do these people inhabit back there in D.C.?
