"Conspiracy" is too strong a word to describe the Iraq War.  Ultimately, this is a case of different cultural narratives and ideas surrounding various aspects of the Middle East that converged (more by accident than design) to create the mindset and belief in false information about Iraq that led to the war.  "Conspiracy" implies that all those involved were exactly aware of how their actions and ideas would affect policy and were attempting to get a specific outcome in a secretive manner.  This isn't the case here.  Most of these groups (American zionists, evangelicals, oil men, etc.) were trying to get their points and their planned policies implimented, however, these different ideas overlapped each other in key ways and led to the formation of a policy that included various aspects of each group, but that also excluded certain aspects as well.

Is Obama a friend of Israel? Perhaps he will be a better friend than Bush, Clinton, McCain or John Hagee. Will Obama continue to allow Israel to control foriegn policy? McClellan said that Bush purposely mis-lead the American people concerning the Iraq war. We later found out that Bush was only a part of the conspiracy. Jessica Yellen said that MSM (Main Stream Media) played a major roll in the propaganda campaign leading up the the Iraq war. What about main stream religion, evangelists and  ministers...they were  major players in this conspiracy.. Phillip Zelikow, Bush adviser and member of the 911 commission said "Iraq war was launched to protect Israel." .America has lost over 4000 of our finest to protect Israel.  Obama should be pro-Iraq war.

The sight of McCain, Obama and Hillary falling all over themselves to kiss the lardy Zionist asses at AIPAC was just too much for me.  I threw up.

I thought it was one of the best speeches I heard in a long time concerning Isreal. I't felt great to hear someone speak of the Jewish and the Black communities coming back together.  This is what we need. God bless America God bless Israel.
