Bush Advisors Back with More Iraq Intelligence

With the intensifying war in Syria, Ukraine, Nigeria and Afghanistan I did find it interesting that Iraq has been in the news recently claiming an insurgency of Sunni militants have taken seize of a northwestern province, near the Syrian border. The insurgents claim that Iraqi president is discriminating against them based on the Sunni Shia difference.

Considering the humiliating blow America received in the aftermath of invading Iraq based on false intelligence, and then the subsequent assasination by hanging that Saddam Hussein Received...I feel obligated to peer closely at who might be offering intelligence to new information. Afterall, the US has spent more than a pretty penny on warring with Iraq that had no substantiated proof of weapons of mass destruction, no obtained any despite 191,000+ violent deaths caused by the Iraq War and a 757.8 billion price tag.

On queue, and without surprise, three unforgettable names associated with the 2003 invasion of Iraq; Dick Cheney, John Rumsfeld and Condoleeza Rice have stepped forward critical of President Obama and his security team, and also giving recommendations as to how to respond to current Iraq situations. I am no politician, by any stretch of the word, (even though I was elected PVAMU Freshman Student Council Secretary in 1997) and I could use a political science class, but anyone can see these three spell T-R-O-U-B-L-E (or Halliburton, take your pick).

As much as allowed, I am annoyed by all of the warring, death and intervening into many countries's problems. My largest reason is that African Americans were never paid reparation or offered repatriation after slavery, yet the US has spent 2 trillion 576 billion 283 million on wars since the Spanish American War in 1898, by which nearly a million African Americans were disabled or killed. I consider it a disrespect to demand patriotism from and tax individuals that were never given a fair start in this country. But thenagain, the US has made other poor decisions and major flubbs like failing at assasinating Cuba's Castro and getting caught, and the suuuper slow response to Hurricane Katrina victims, etc...but to REassociate with the likes of Cheney, Rice and Rumsfeld is just asking for avoidable and foreseeable death and war without reason.
