"Troops" In Iraq

Thanks to Citizens For Legitimate Government for their Link and reference to a typical article on the 172K figure cited in the AP article, below.


The corporate media only reveals some of the numbers of Fourth Reich forces in Iraq, and fails to address the ramifications. Take this typical example from the Associated Press:


"The number of U.S. troops in Iraq has climbed to a record high of 168,000 and is moving toward a peak of 172,000 in the coming weeks — a level that could extend into December, a senior military official said Thursday."

Here are some of the *real* issues not being covered by the corporate press. Always remember, there are both lies of commission AND lies of omission:

How many Blackwater and Halliburton storm troopers there are in Iraq?

What of the fact that the Bu$h Regime is creating a mercenary force whose occupation of New Orleans is just a test drive?

What of the stark reality that the US Military is being weakened to the point that it may well lack the ability to fight the next coup d'état (the most recent previous ones, depending on one's analysis, being those that took out Richard Nixon and JFK)?
