@Sam- I doubt if Greenspan can be described as a “leftist gatekeeper” as he has been a card-carrying Republican most of his adult life. As for being a Zionist, he is ethically Jewish but his gospel is purely market capitalist. In fact he is a proponent of Ayn Rand’s Objectivism, where he proper moral purpose of one’s life is the pursuit of one’s own happiness or “rational self-interest”; his only strong belief is selfish, pure, laissez-faire capitalism.

@Jhay – The war is about the oil. Oil IS Iraq’s economy, as it has the 2nd largest proven petroleum reserves in the world, second only to Saudi Arabia. And much of its oil reserves are largely untapped, owing to years of political instability and war. Hence, a country like Yemen, which is a known haven of international terrorists and where U.S. citizens have been killed, will not get the kind of attention from Bush et. al. that Iraq got. Why ? Simply because Yemen has minuscule amounts of oil, hardly enough to keep it from being one of the poorest countries in the Arab world.

I’d rather believe that it’s “about the oil, stuopid” angle than some crack-pot notion about Zion and other religious hodge-podge.

Americans are so into this sort of theories. Talk about insult to intelligence right?

Left gatekeepers propagated the myth the war was about oil. The truth is zionists like Greenspan have dragged the West into The Middle East Conflict on Israel’s side, on the back of a series of false flag terror attacks in the West blamed on ‘Muslim Terror’. Thats the truth. Thats why you don’t hear it.
