It's #19 on Project Censored's list for 2004.

http://www.projectcensored.org/top-stories/category/y-2004/

The rest of the list is a little scary -- most of those stories have broken into the big media now. But if 2004's list looks scary, check out 2008's.

It's a pretty good conspiracy, except for the part where Britain benefits from trading in US dollars instead of the Euro.....

Oh, and the trillions upon trillions of US dollars spent in the war. If that was for America's economic benefit, well.....

The trillions spent in the war isn't for America's economic benefit, rather it's for the economic benefit of America's military industrial complex, corporations like Halliburton, and the rich.

But what do those corporations care about the American dollar? They'd be just as happy making trillions of Euros or Yuan. If there is a correct conspiracy theory it's Cheney feeding money to his Haliburton friends by making war. The only problem with the 'theory' being it's so blindingly obvious that it starts seeming too simple. Of course, if you can shoot someone in the face and have them say they feel sorry for the heat you got over it, maybe you really can be that bold....

Thank you so much for that link. Some of those stories I had actually heard the first time they made the rounds in the media, but the rest of them are so blood-chilling my jaw literally dropped while reading them. People need to read these and realize just how f'd up our world really is at the moment.

On a lighter note, I enjoyed the article about Mexico's gringo immigration problem as my own parents, now retired, have invested in property down there, and we know several other couples who have made the move already.

One has to remember that the Bush Administration is/was entrenched in the defense industry. They don't give a fuck about charging US tax payers $20 per every meal a soldiers eat.
