Gates Raises Possibility Of Deploying More National Guard And Reserve Forces To Iraq

by- Suzie-Q @ 7:45 PM MST

Today on ABC’s This Week, host George Stephanopoulos challenged President Bush’s assertion that the troop drawdown is because of “success” in Iraq. He asked Defense Secretary Robert Gates, “Wasn’t the drawdown a matter of military necessity?”

Gates insisted that the military was not broken, noting the large size of the armed forces: “After all, we’ve got 2.1 million men and women in the United States armed forces. If the circumstances required it, other choices could have been made.”

Stephanopoulos continued to push Gates, asking, “So if General Petraeus comes back in March and says we’re making some progress, but we can’t continue to draw down right now, where would the troops come from?” Gates tried to back away from answering a “hypothetical,” but eventually conceded that they would potentially have to deploy more National Guard and Reserve forces.

~VIDEO~ America: Freedom to Fascism – Director

by Geezer Power …3:00 PM PDT

Peace be with you wherever you journey…

Watch America: From Freedom to Fascism for free. This film Russo rushed through production likely right after he realized his close “Rockefeller friend” was a clear accessory to mass murder in the 9-11 events, as fascist plots were being hatched from the U.S. military and the Bush/Cheney clique around 9-11. However, Russo’s film starts this slow fascist coup back in 1913, toward how the Federal Reserve began to create the perfect totalitarian monitored society–of which Nicholas Rockefeller’s additions to this totalitarian society are detailed and coming out into the open only from Summer 2001 to the present.

Google once censored Russo’s film and deleted it–until Aaron Russo himself authorized its uploading for people to watch for free. Google hacks remain silent–for now. The film has moved steadily up after Google stopped censoring it:

Greenspan Says Iraq War Was Really For Oil

by- Suzie-Q @ 12:40 PM MST

Suzie-Q is scratching her head and wondering where has Greenspan been for the past 4-5 years? Was he asleep and he just woke up?

AMERICA’s elder statesman of finance, Alan Greenspan, has shaken the White House by declaring that the prime motive for the war in Iraq was oil.

In his long-awaited memoir, to be published tomorrow, Greenspan, a Republican whose 18-year tenure as head of the US Federal Reserve was widely admired, will also deliver a stinging critique of President George W Bush’s economic policies.

However, it is his view on the motive for the 2003 Iraq invasion that is likely to provoke the most controversy. “I am saddened that it is politically inconvenient to acknowledge what everyone knows: the Iraq war is largely about oil,” he says.

Greenspan, 81, is understood to believe that Saddam Hussein posed a threat to the security of oil supplies in the Middle East.

Britain and America have always insisted the war had nothing to do with oil. Bush said the aim was to disarm Iraq of weapons of mass destruction and end Saddam’s support for terrorism.
