What will bring the troops home?
The U.S. and Britain, the current and former colonial powers, have no right to send their troops to the Middle East in the first place. This is pure imperialism, an attempt to conquer the area containing the richest concentration of valuable natural resources. The new Iraqi hydrocarbons law, drafted by U.S. “consultants,” proves what anti-war demonstrators have said all along—the supposed war on terror is really a war for the oil companies. Immense profits are involved.
