First paragraph (Teaser):

We all are supposed to 'endure' this cruel and many times deadly US-made 'freedom'; even knowing that the expression 'to endure' stands for: 'to suffer, undergo or be subjected to'. How right the definition is: just look at Iraq after three years of enduring US freedom.

Bush Didn't Bungle Iraq, You Fools - Greg Palast, with a comment.

'ENDURING FREEDOM' MEANS TO SUFFER, UNDERGO OR BE SUBJECTED TO IT

THERE IS NO 'CONSPIRACY' - IT'S ONLY FACTS WE DON'T HAVE YET...

FPF - March 21st 2006 - We - the livestock of the global 'Animal Farm' - just need to look around us. Because, from a profit point of view, that's how the Shylocks of this world always have done it: create a scarcity and: up the prices go! If you don't build enough houses, you keep the prices and loans high. If you artificially keep a bigger than normal 'unemployment rate', the wages will be kept low, sliding to a minimum level, as is shown at present again in the PNAC planned labor laws for the people in all countries of the European Union.

Something millions of people in France (74%) are protesting against now, with some of the big and infiltrated so called 'unions' for their 'masters' trying to stop a general strike coming Thursday, to further control their damage. - [http://tinyurl.com/ppxuk]

And like this PNAC plan too, as described below by Greg Palast: if you control the oil, and most certainly via OPEC - you decide the price. In case you feel like an extra couple of $billions or so in profit, you just pull one of the usual tricks and for instance in a 'false flag' operation block the street of Hormuz, all the while - via all own propaganda channels - blaming 'Arab terrorists' or some of the CIA paid and faked 'groups of al Quaida' for it.

Upping the price of crude per barrel to a $100 or more: whatever 'The Group' feels like, and what they think we creatures on our 'Animal Farm' can endure. For those who remember: 'The Seven Sisters' have always done this - Url.: http://tinyurl.com/f47gq

PNAC: 'PROJECT FOR A NEFARIOUS AMERICAN CENTURY'

That's why the US/PNAC's global war of terror is called "Enduring Freedom": we all are supposed to 'endure' this cruel and many times deadly 'freedom', knowing that the expression 'to endure' stands for: to suffer, undergo or be subjected to. How right the definition is: just look at Iraq.* Growing millions are understanding and protesting against the perilous PNAC policy, their 'Project for a Nefarious American Century' and 'The Group' malignantly managing the global 'Animal Farm'. Even Martin Luther in the 15th century saw this. - Url.: http://tinyurl.com/hiv9

It's a pleasure forwarding Greg Palast: he's a journalist with a hammer, knowing who, what, why - and where the nails are. And then, like in this article, he hits the nails on the head: "Bush Didn't Bungle Iraq, You Fools: Get off it. All the carping, belly-aching and complaining about George Bush's incompetence in Iraq, from both the Left and now the Right, is just dead wrong.

On the third anniversary of the tanks rolling over Iraq's border, most of the 59 million Homer Simpsons who voted for Bush are beginning to doubt if his mission was accomplished.

But don't kid yourself - Bush and his co-conspirator, Dick Cheney, accomplished exactly what they set out to do. In case you've forgotten what their real mission was, let me remind you of White House spokesman Ari Fleisher's original announcement, three years ago, launching of what he called:

"Operation
Iraqi
Liberation."

O.I.L. How droll of them, how cute. Then, Karl Rove made the giggling boys in the White House change it to "OIF" -- Operation Iraqi Freedom. But the 101st Airborne wasn't sent to Basra to get its hands on Iraq's OIF.

"It's about oil," Robert Ebel told me. Who is Ebel? Formerly the CIA's top oil analyst, he was sent by the Pentagon, about a month before the invasion, to a secret confab in London with Saddam's former oil minister to finalize the plans for "liberating" Iraq's oil industry. In London, Bush's emissary Ebel also instructed Ibrahim Bahr al-Ulum, the man the Pentagon would choose as post-OIF oil minister for Iraq, on the correct method of disposing Iraq's crude.

And what did the USA want Iraq to do with Iraq's oil? The answer will surprise many of you: and it is uglier, more twisted, devilish and devious than anything imagined by the most conspiracy-addicted blogger. The answer can be found in a 323-page plan for Iraq's oil secretly drafted by the State Department. Our team got a hold of a copy; how, doesn't matter. The key thing is what's inside this thick Bush diktat: a directive to Iraqis to maintain a state oil company that will "enhance its relationship with OPEC."

ENHANCE ITS RELATIONSHIP WITH OPEC???

How strange: the government of the United States ordering Iraq to support the very OPEC oil cartel which is strangling our nation with outrageously high prices for crude.

Specifically, the system ordered up by the Bush cabal would keep a lid on Iraq's oil production -- limiting Iraq's oil pumping to the tight quota set by Saudi Arabia and the OPEC cartel.

THERE YOU HAVE IT. YES, BUSH WENT IN FOR THE OIL -- NOT TO GET MORE OF IRAQ'S OIL, BUT TO PREVENT IRAQ PRODUCING TOO MUCH OF IT.

You must keep in mind who paid for George's ranch and Dick's bunker: Big Oil. And Big Oil -- and their buck-buddies, the Saudis -- don't make money from pumping more oil, but from pumping LESS of it. The lower the supply, the higher the price.

It's Economics 101. The oil industry is run by a cartel, OPEC, and what economists call an "oligopoly" -- a tiny handful of operators who make more money when there's less oil, not more of it. So, every time the "insurgents" blow up a pipeline in Basra, every time Mad Mahmoud in Tehran threatens to cut supply, the price of oil leaps. And Dick and George just LOVE it.

Dick and George didn't want more oil from Iraq, they wanted less. I know some of you, no matter what I write, insist that our President and his Veep are on the hunt for more crude so you can cheaply fill your family Hummer; that somehow, these two oil-patch babies are concerned that the price of gas in the USA is bumping up to $3 a gallon.

IT'S BEEN A GOOD WAR FOR BIG OIL

No so, gentle souls. Three bucks a gallon in the States (and a quid a litre in Britain) means colossal profits for Big Oil, and that makes Dick's ticker go pitty-pat with joy. The top oily-gopolists, the five largest oil companies, pulled in $113 billion in profit in 2005 -- compared to a piddly $34 billion in 2002 before Operation Iraqi Liberation. In other words, it's been a good war for Big Oil.

As per Plan Bush, Bahr Al-Ulum became Iraq's occupation oil minister; the conquered nation "enhanced its relationship with OPEC;" and the price of oil, from Clinton peace-time to Bush war-time, shot up 317%.

In other words, on the third anniversary of invasion, we can say the attack and occupation is, indeed, a Mission Accomplished.

However, it wasn't America's mission, nor the Iraqis'.

It was an Mission Accomplished for OPEC and Big Oil.
