The Iraq War: Every cloud has a silver lining!

Bush and the MSM may brag about their efforts in Iraq, but the public at large and most pundits decry it as the "4 year failure".

Ask anyone in the world and they will tell you that the war is the biggest failure the US ever launched as a military/occupation venture. But wait!

Secretly, when you slink down the back allys of Foggy Bottom and query those "in the know", they will confide that this "war" is considered by Washingtonians as the biggest success in our history!

Huh?

True. For starters, thanks to Cheney’s secret meetings, his fortune escalated into the stratosphere (Halliburton stock). Of course a dozen or more OTHER construction contractors and security firms (like Blackwater), made out and continue to make out..fabulously!
In D.C., many Congressmen are benefitting from inside tips on hot stocks which are connected to the "war", and at the Pentagon kickbacks are rife! RIFE!

The military industrial complex has NEVER seen profits like these! $12 BILLION per month poured into the "endless war" for "the troops"!!! No wonder the generals and politicians keep pushing for extensions and more bucks!

Even in Iraq and surrounding areas profits are up. Up from smuggling black market arms, drugs and oil!

Did I say oil? How about the obscene profits...bigger than ever in history..by the oil cartels?

A losing war?

I don’t think so.
