Bush's Kampf
Chris Floyd writing in The Moscow Times says that the blueprint for U.S. domination which is now being revealed by the Bush administration's latest foreign policy statements, was clearly set forth in 1992 by a team operating under then-secretary of defense Dick Cheney, then reaffirmed in September 2000 in the document produced by a think tank for Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz (Rumsfeld's deputy), George W's younger brother Jeb and Lewis Libby (Cheney's chief of staff). (see The Sunday Herald)The comparison between Bush and Hitler, which is becoming so common, is made again in this article saying at no time has a plan for world domination been made so clear in advance since Hitler's Mein Kampf.
The documents of 2000 set forth the attack on Iraq that is now going forward: "The United States has for decades sought to play a more permanent role in Gulf regional security," it says. "While the unresolved conflict with Iraq provides the immediate justification, the need for a substantial American force presence in the Gulf transcends the issue of the regime of Saddam Hussein."
Iraq is one step in a much larger plan. Iran is next. All nations will be prevented from "challenging our leadership or even aspiring to a larger regional or global role."
