Bomb it then rebuild it, the circle of life
Here is another little tidbit about the upcoming Iraq war.
According to U.S. offficials, the Bush administration is pulling together a huge Iraq rebuilding project, this one is larger that the one after World War II. The construction contract will be worth hundreds of millions of dollars. This massive contract, would pay for construction and repairs to roads, schools, hospitals and mosques.
A select few U.S. construction companies were invited to bid on this contract. Analysts said that the company that wins this bid will be in position for future projects for the repair and development of the country's oil industry. Guess which company was asked to bid? None other than Cheney's old company, Halliburton!
Has Cheney set himself up for life or what! Isin't it nice though, that we are going to rebuild everything we blast to hell. Job security for some, but death for many others.
Is this what they call the "Circle of Life"?
