Secret US plans for Iraq's oil -- Before 9/11
Greg Palast Veterans for Common Sense..t BBC (United Kingdom) - March 18, 2005
Read the article below to learn why the Bush/Cheney Administration fought so hard to prevent the release of documents relating to their secret meeting with oil company campaign contributors during early 2001. When reading the article below, keep thinking about Enron, Harken, Halliburton, and the fake energy crisis in California.

Un-Volunteering: Troops Improvise to Find Way Out

The night before his Army unit was to meet to fly to Iraq, Pvt. Brandon Hughey, 19, simply left. He drove all night from Texas to Indiana, and on from there, with help from a Vietnam veteran he had met on the Internet, to disappear in Canada.

In Georgia, Sgt. Kevin Benderman, 40, whose family ties to military service stretch back to the American Revolution, filed for conscientious-objector status and learned that he will face a court-martial in May for failing to report to his unit when it left for a second stint in Iraq.

1. like Vietnam, OUR troops will lead us out of bush* wars....


The Pro-Peace rally at Ft. Bragg is the beginning of the end for the bushites....when OUR own military begins to REVOLT, especially with a weak weak leader like bush* (who doesn't even notice it)....there's just no way that these bush* wars can continue...


it's very likely bush* will DRAFT real soon...but that will only inflame emotions in America even more....


IMO, these war-Veterans are a CRITICAL influential group in stopping bush* wars....I'm glad they've STEPPED UP....
