By Narrow Margin, Senate Votes To Force Iraq Withdrawal

Submitted by Cris Ericson, Mar 27, 2007 20:16

Didn't some news source write that some Arab Prince shareholder decided that thousands of U.S. jobs should be cut at Citigroup to save shareholders like him money; and what is the relationship between this alleged Arab control of Citigroup now and September 11, 2001, if any?

Vice President Cheney's former company allegedly received billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars for no-bid contracts in Iraq and now has recently decided to move to Arab Dubai; are the Arab decision makers the same people as the Arab decision makers allegedly forcing thousands of layoffs of U.S. workers at Citigroup?

Are the Arabs who are welcoming Vice President Cheney's former company, Hillburton or Halburton or whatever it is called, which received billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars and now is taking the money and running to Arab Dubai, and the Arabs demanding the layoff of thousands of U.S. workers from Citigroup, the same people who allegedly convinced President Bush to go to war in Iraq so that the Arabs could allegedly get control of OIL in Iraq which they will now have through Hillburton or Halburton or whatever it is called in their new offices in Arab Dubai?

I am asking these questions with great sincerity. In 2004 I appeared on a nationally televised debate on CSPAN as a U.S. Senate candidate from Vermont competing against U.S. Senator Patrick Leahy and others. I came in 3rd out of 6 candidates. I stated that I supported President Bush and the war on terror and I also stated that I believed we were in Iraq partly for the OIL. I explained to Vermonters that we need to keep our guns oiled and ready. U.S. Senator Patrick Leahy stated that he did not believe we were in Iraq for OIL. I suspected he was lying or dumb, but didn't say so out loud.

I believe that helping to encourage democracy allows us the best access to oil products which we do need, and I still believe that we need to spend money to encourage democracy in countries that have oil because we need to have stable and fair business relationships in order to buy the oil we need at a fair price.

Arab Dubai is not democracy. Please read the C.I.A. online world factbook.
