Formula for failure—but then maybe there’s more afoot here than the liberation of the Iraqi people? A generation of our young being picked off in an inferno they know nothing of—not being given the lessons of history! To them these ingrates are merely (today’s labels) “terrorists-insurgents-rag head-towel heads etc.” Once upon a time the British declared in their May 18-1918 proclamation read ALOUD in Baghdad “Our armies do not come into your cities and lands as conquerors or enemies but as liberators”. As part of the liberation, the British illegally seized the most valuable lands in Mesopotamia, the Kurdish Mosul region. This enabled Britain to combine three ethnically separate provinces together—Kudish Mosul-Sunni Baghdad and Shiite Basra into a single land that London would RENAME IRAQ.
BUT Arab and Islamic nationalists did not want to share their land with infidel European Christians. Nor did they choose to share European values of democracy and pluralism, ideals that had never taken root in the Islamic Middle East for 7,000 years! It did not take long for the Iraqis to rise up in terror raids, burning-bombing, and massacring Westerners including those sent to commercially (today Haliburton-Brown and Root-Bechtel contractors) develop the land and its waterways.
After World War I, the British and the French, becoming ever more dependent upon OIL-engineered a secret petroleum pact, sanctioned by the League of Nations which DIVIDED up oil drilling and pipeline rights in Syria and Iraq. Genocide against minorities, ethnic cleansing (see today Fallujah) repression, corruption (billions shrug missing contract monies today) and neglect were the rule in Iraq for years. For eight more decades, the West---now with the US joining France and Britain has tried to hang onto its oil lifeline in the Middle East—through diplomats-corporate surrogates and now the military (such is why our modern day cannon fodder suits up to fight). No—those who do not study history will believe the pomp-pageantry-of the empty rhetoric of flags-ribbons-he died for America-democracy-liberation yada yada yada”. OIL-OIL-OIL! A people will fight for their LAND forever—until the last person—the West has no understanding of this.
