As you all know, the mainstream news sources that most Americans read either are in favor of the war with Iraq or neutral. They do not discuss critically why the war is happening and what the consequences for Iraqis as well as American troops will be. and-fyi, I heard that a lot of news programs decided to cut coverage of protesting because it was ‘upsetting’ their viewers. yikes
In my fabulous ‘International Rural Development Policy’ class I received a list of alternative media sources that delve into why the war is happening, give brutal truths about the war and do not confuse Osama bin Laden with Saddam.

Something I’ve been hearing about, and not from a source like CNN, is Project For A New Century. It is the brain child of a think tank that is mostly comprised of people who are elected government officials and/or are on the boards of big oil corporations or weapons companies. i.e. Cheney, Wolfowitz, Libby, Rumsfeld, Pearl, Kristol. The project had reports come out in 1998 and 2000 which outlined basically exactly what is happening with the war in Iraq right now. US companies will gain control of Iraq’s oil fields and the US will expand its control in the Middle East.
Is the US trying to gain control in the region for economic/oil reasons? Could the war be happening for the economic gains of a few companies? How did the world get to a place where this kind of thing could happen? If anyone wants to answer these questions for me and inform the American public about it, I’d be forever grateful.
but… don’t let all this get you down, life is beautiful and Brendan is in the world!!!
