In favour of war

Anyone want to read this and then tell me they're not in favour of war?

You're right on the huminitarian aide; at least here in the United States those contracts are being given out to corporations with connections to the White House, starting with the company previously run by our Vice President. That should say something about how much we're really trying to help people, as opposed to lining pockets.

I actually think it's a very good thing that the contracts are being sorted out now. It doesn't surprise me that the contracts are going to contacts of the central government cabal, as I don't like Bush in the slightest, but at least they are preparing for the post-war rebuild.

The article was interesting also - but didn't have a lot of hard data in it. Also, comparing the the effects of the first gulf war (where they broke the infrastructure) to the second (where there is no infrastructure to break and they plan to go in and build one with haste) is not likely to be accurate.
