Een onderwerp dat door de Nederlandse commerciele massamedia nooit serieus is geanalyseerd, omdat het buiten de consensus viel van waarover bericht mag worden. Ik las het net na vandaag een hele dag op de Westbank getuige te zijn geweest van de gruwelijke allerdaagse terreur van de Israelische militaire bezetting die al 40 jaar duurt. Maar daarover na mijn terugkeer.
'Alan Greenspan Claims Iraq War Was Really for Oil
By Graham Patersoan
The UK Times
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.

Hoi Stan,
De url die je opgaf (http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/091707M.shtmla) doet het niet; je moet die a op het einde weghalen. Het juiste adres is dus: http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/091707M.shtml.
