IRAQ - years of terror.
"Every gun that is fired, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.
The world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its labourers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children."
General Dwight D. Eisenhower, 34th President of the United States

Iraq now pumps less than 50% less oil than before the invasion, and cannot refine enough oil for it's domestic market. Meanwhile the US forces fly in petrol for their forces and are seeking to boost their transport hub for fuel at Incirlik in Turkey.
This is progress?
