Obama has extended Cheney’s doctrine of holding people without trial and extended it by executing people without trial using drones. Liberals have let it slide, not wanting to weaken Obama. Obama has even executed teenagers whose only crime was to be a relative of a suspected terrorist. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

He argues that Bush has committed over 100,000 murders with his phony Iraq war and must not be allowed to go Scott free. Impeachment would not suffice. Bush has to go to jail for what he has done. Bugliosi warned that people with high blood pressure should not read more than four pages at a sitting.

The only evidence Bush had that Iraq had WMDs was from an alcoholic that the CIA had never even interviewed. They did not even know his name. They referred to him as Curveball. Germans passed on some of his tall tales with the warning there was no corroboration for any of it. Bush used this as his excuse to invade Iraq and kill hundreds of thousands of people. Of course, he kept on killing even after no WMDs were found, so we know it was just an excuse. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

As the United States has become a belligerent and lawless force under George W. Bush, the Canadian government has followed in close step. Attempting to please our powerful neighbour, Ottawa has abandoned Canada’s traditional rôle as a leading peacekeeping nation and instead adopted a more militaristic, warlike stance, battling insurgents in Afghanistan as a junior partner in the U.S. war on terror Ottawa has also abandoned Canada’s traditional attempt to be a fair-minded mediator, most notably in the Middle East. And it has joined the United States as a leading obstructionist in worldwide efforts to tackle global warming. Altogether, there’s been a dramatic shift in the way Canada operates in the world, as our country has been transformed into a helpful assistant to an aggressive U.S. power, increasingly out of sync with our European allies and with the rest of the world. This new rôle has been actively encouraged by powerful members of our elite who want to incorporate us more deeply into America’s military and economic empire. As Washington runs roughshod over international law, with its imperial wars, illegal prisons and torture, they want Canada to stand by helpfully, holding the bully’s coat. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Key, a young husband and father from a conservative background, enlisted in the Army in 2002 to get training as a welder and lift his family out of poverty. A year later, Key was sent to Ramadi in Iraq where he found himself participating in a war that was not the campaign against terrorists and evildoers he had expected. He saw Iraqi civilians beaten, shot and killed for little or no provocation. Nearly ever other night, he participated in raids on homes that found only terrified families and no evidence of terrorist activity. He tells of American soldiers playing soccer with a decapitated Iraqi’s head. On leave, Key knew he could not return so he took his family underground, finally seeking asylum in Canada. As of 2007 he was fighting extradition from Canada. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Woodward has written a number of previous books praising Bush, but now he has had a second look and has decided Bush has been deceiving the American public about the Iraq war. The Iraq war is accomplishing nothing and gradually getting more and more violent. George W. Bush emerges as a passive, impatient, sophomoric and intellectually incurious leader, presiding over a grossly dysfunctional war cabinet and given to an almost religious certainty that makes him disinclined to rethink or re-evaluate decisions he has made about the war. It reveals that former Chief of Staff Andrew Card talked to Bush on two different occasions about replacing Rumsfeld. Colin Powell, Condoleeza Rice and even Laura Bush supported the decision, but it didn’t happen. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

McQuaig points out that for decades Washington has been intensely focused on gaining control of the oil reserves of the Middle East. That focus took on new urgency under the Bush administration, with its close ties to Big Oil, including a vice-president who’s gotten rich going back and forth between Big Oil and the top echelons of the U.S. government. The urgency was driven by the fact that the vast oil reserves of Iraq — the last unharvested oil bonanza left on earth — were in the process of being parceled off to foreign competitors. Iraq represented the alluring prospect of future energy security for the United States, even as America’s own oil reserves were dwindling. And, with potential profits in the range of $100 billion a year, Iraq also represented the future of the oil industry. In the words of Wall Street oil analyst Fadel Gheit, Iraq is the big dance. Everyone wants to be there. But the U.S. oil giants hadn’t been invited to the big dance. Instead, Saddam Hussein had been busy making deals with oil companies from other nations, including America’s arch-rivals: China, Russia and France. All this was on the minds of top executives of the big U.S. oil companies when they met, amid great secrecy, with Dick Cheney and his task force on energy, which had been set up within days of the new administration taking office. Although the administration has fought fiercely to prevent information about the deliberations of the task force being released, task force documents obtained under court order reveal an intense focus on Iraq and the question of how to gain control of its massive reserves — even as the administration was drawing up plans for toppling Saddam. All this was underway, months before the attacks of 2001-09-11. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Scott Ritter was the American leader of the WMD inspection teams in Iraq. Bush ignored his findings and went to war anyway. Washington was only interested in disarmament as a tool for its own agenda. Operating in a fog of espionage and counter-espionage, Ritter and his team were determined to find out the truth about Iraq’s WMD. The CIA were equally determined to stop them. The truth, as we now know, was that Iraq was playing a deadly game of double-bluff and actually had no WMD. But to have revealed this would have derailed America’s drive for regime change. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Oil is peaking. The supply is getting smaller each year. Just what are the implications? Heinberg sees the only viable option as a global program of resource conservation and sharing. Predicting chaos unless the U.S. — the world’s foremost oil consumer — is willing to join with other countries to implement a global program of resource conservation and sharing, he also recommends a managed collapse, that might make way for a slower-paced, low-energy, sustainable society in the future. website. The opening chapters of the book give a lucid, simple, but not simplistic recap of the basic physics, biology, history and ecology you need to know as background to understand the energy crunch. When I was reading this section, it dawned on me that most Americans are completely ignorant of this basic science. That is why they approach the energy and global warming problem is such a superstitious and irrational way. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Michael Scheuer was head of the bin Laden unit at the CIA until 2003. He chastises the politicians for feeding the public nonsense about bin Laden’s motives. They have nothing to do with American lifestyle, desire to curtail American freedom or desire to proselytise Islam. He explains that Osama bin Laden is a competent, religiously motivated, charismatic leader. It is foolish to try to dismiss him as a madman or a criminal. You will never understand what makes him tick that way. Al Qaeda is primarily a defensive organisation. Again pretending otherwise keeps you from understanding them. bin Laden’s five demands are quite specific, but few people pay any attention to:
He points out the invasion and occupation of Iraq was a huge gift to bin Laden because it has just tied down more U.S. forces that otherwise could be fighting Al Qaeda. Further, it proved bin Laden’s claim that the U.S.A. is aggressively targeting the Muslim world. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

This is about hypocrisy, primarily American, over the decades, pretending to be acting out of humanitarian motives while mass butchering for relatively minor self interests. It is a bit a shock how the USA bullies the world quite shamelessly. It is also a bit of a shock how ridiculously paranoid the American administration is. The USA often retaliates, not out of threat, but merely to punish lack of sufficient subservience. It is a book you have to read in small bits so not to get too depressed. Consider though, that the world of international relations has always been thus. All you are doing is seeing it with the cloak of respectability removed. Nothing has actually changed — just your understanding. Also available in audio CD, eBook and audio download. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

In response to a request from Cheney’s office, the CIA sent former ambassador Joe Wilson to investigate the possibility that Niger was selling uranium to Saddam. Wilson reported back that the letter alleging that was obviously a fake. It was not even signed by the right bureaucrats. Further, Niger had no uranium to sell. France had long ago bought up the entire supply. The Italians had a copy of the letter and it was obvious to them it was a forgery. They were puzzled why the high tech experts in the CIA were taking it as genuine. So they wrote and presented their evidence that it was a forgery. Yet Bush went ahead anyway, pretending it was genuine. Wilson went public and Scooter Libby, Cheney’s top aide, outed Wilson’s wife Valerie Plame as a CIA agent, thus endangering her life and those of her fellow agents. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Dr. Hans Blix was the Swede who lead the U.N. weapons inspections in Iraq in 2000. Saddam’s removal was neither the avowed aim nor the justification given for the war — WMDs were the issue. Therefore, he believes the invasion was unnecessary and possibly counterproductive in the long run and is disappointed that they were not given enough time to complete their task. | ||||

Hartung gives chapter and verse, sourced and annotated, on the crony capitalism and brazen conflicts of interest which reek from the highest levels of the Bush Administration. His particular bête noir is the Vice- President, Dick Cheney, who even while in office receives hundreds of thousands of dollars in deferred payments from his old company, Halliburton, a giant oil services conglomerate which now has the lion’s share of (untendered) Pentagon contracts to rebuild Iraq. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Documents the lies behind purported motives for invading Afghanistan. It had nothing to do with bin Laden. It was about securing an oil pipeline route. Under the Taliban, Afghans were subjected to brutal Islamist law. Women, banned from holding jobs, rarely ventured outside. Punishment was medieval, adulterers were stoned to death and thieves had their limbs amputated in the local soccer stadium. But if nothing else, these strictures eliminated the banditry and rape gangs that terrorized the nation before 1996. Post-Taliban Afghanistan is essentially the Taliban Afghanistan minus law and order. Stonings continue and women remain under burqas, but now thugs and rapists roam the streets unchecked. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

War Plan Iraq brings together the arguments that can shake George W. Bush and Prime Minister Blair’s determination to start an illegal war with Iraq. Despite Washington’s claims that the only options are inaction or invasion and that inaction is not an option, War Plan Iraq demonstrates that inspection is an option and that inspection and monitoring are the only way to ensure real disarmament in Iraq. For the Bush Administration, UN weapons inspectors are an obstacle to war; they are part of the problem, not part of the solution. War Plan Iraq uncovers Washington’s hidden rôle in the collapse of the first UN weapons inspection agency, UNSCOM (United Nations Special Commission) and the paralysis of UNSCOM’s successor. Based on the popular ARROW (Active Resistance to the Roots of War) Anti-War briefings, War Plan Iraq rigorously dissects official propaganda and exposes government lies. Milan Rai demonstrates that Bush’s claims to change the regime in Iraq, despite intentions to impose another Sunni general to replace Saddam Hussein, are not in fact a regime change, but a leadership change. He also shows that the war would be in violation of international law; that there is no hard evidence that Iraq possesses any weapons of mass destruction; that there is no substantiated connection between the government of Iraq, September 11th and the al Qaeda network; that the proposed war carries a high risk of triggering a humanitarian disaster in Iraq, especially for the Kurds of northern Iraq; and that the war could precipitate a world recession with dire consequences for the world’s poor. Iraq’s neighbors, the ones most at risk from Iraq’s weapons, are against the proposed war, as are top military professionals in Britain and the US, many international organizations and countries around the world and a great majority of people in the US and the UK. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Republican Scott Ritter spent seven years in Iraq as an arms inspector for the United Nations. His 1998 resignation as the U.N. chief weapons inspector there made front-page headlines around the world. In Endgame, Ritter draws on his experiences to take us inside Saddam Hussein’s Iraq and to explain where U.S. policy in Iraq went wrong. According to the blurb, Ritter describes in detail the ways that Saddam tried to foil inspectors by concealing his weapons programs. He brings readers with him inside some of Iraq’s most carefully guarded sites and shows us dramatic face-offs between U.N. inspectors and hostile Iraqi guards and officials. But Ritter criticizes the U.S. for squandering an international consensus on Iraq and trying to use the inspections process for uniquely American goals. He argues strongly against the proposed American military strike against Iraq, suggesting instead a bold and innovative solution to the long-standing crisis. But in reality, Ritter is a bit like Wile E. Coyote going after Saddam as the Road Runner. The more Ritter can’t find any weapons the more convinced he became that Saddam had them. He admits one time his for sure nuclear facility turned out to be a pump house for luxury fountains at a compound for the Iraqi elite. Ritter is a superhawk. Even back in the 1990s he desperately itched for war on Iraq if even so much as a can of poison gas could be found to justify it. Most of the book is primarily about events prior in the 1990s. He leaves out some key facts, e.g. the sanction bombings or that his hero Chalabi was a convicted embezzler. He has absolutely no understanding of or curiosity about the motives of the USA. He takes the official statements completely at face value with the dedication of a high school drop out Republican. However, he does admit that Iraq had at most 100 weapons and was not a military threat at the time the USA invaded. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
