Hello weblogs.com Visitors!

Starting to get some traffic from weblogs.com due to my blog entries… very kewl, and welcome to my weblog! As you can tell, a lot of my entries are war-related… it’s not that that’s the only thing on my mind these days, but it *is* there at the forefront. Kind of hard to ignore what’s going on in the world, and I’ve been pouring over news reports from all over the world trying to get at the real stories behind what’s going on. I hope the links I’m posting are helpful to those of you looking for the same kind of information. It’s not that I think you can’t find those links on your own, I’m sure you can, but it’s more of a sense on my part of reading this stuff and finding it all so un-fucking-believable that these rich white guys would try to get away with all of this.

As it is, they aren’t really even trying to hide what they’re doing… anyone who can run a search engine can read that for themselves… it’s the spin that’s being drilled into the minds of Middle America and the rest of the “western world” that I’m finding hard to believe. Halliburton was recently announced to be out of consideration for any of those contracts being awarded for rebuilding Iraq after the war is over, but that doesn’t mean that Halliburton subsidiaries won’t land those contracts… it just means the Halliburton NAME won’t be appearing on paper, that’s all. In other words, it’s still “business as usual” on Capitol Hill, and in Texas.

Quite frankly, I would love to see some investigative journalist (Bob Woodward? the BBC? anyone?) take on this bunch of Texas oil men and expose the whole truth of the matter. Who is connected to what corporation, who will profit during the rebuilding, where does all the money end up, etc. I have little doubt that the names that would surface can also be found on, or related to, those on the rolls of the notorious organization known in Yale circles as “Skull and Bones.” (BTW, a full roster of names of S&B members can also be found online if you know where to look.) I also find it interesting that many of the names being circulated in relation to some of these deals have old ties to the first Bush Administration. Bush #1 was also director of the CIA at one point, let’s not forget that, and let’s see who is still around from those days and in charge of *what* today. It might be helpful to look back at that whole “Iran Contra Scandal” and take note of those names, as well.

As of today, there have been no chemical or other “weapons of mass destruction” found in Iraq. If there are no such weapons, my worry is that someone will *plant* them so they can be found later as justification for this war. That possibility has crossed my mind a number of times over the past few days, and as scary and paranoid as that idea sounds, I wouldn’t, at this point, doubt that such a thing could occur. Taken in conjunction with recent forged documents and other things, I think that’s a reasonable idea to entertain.
