Secret Necon Plan For Endless War In Iraq Exposed!
Or, more accurately, a plan for a permanent US presence in Iraq (to both uphold the elected Iraqi government and facilitate continuing anti-terror operations in the middle east which was one of the points of the whole war to begin with) along the lines of the on-going US presence in places like Germany, Japan and Korea.
Really, I’m surprised that anyone would be shocked at the idea of permanent US bases in Iraq. Is the idea really a bad one? I, personally, would like to see our global military deployments be more concentrated in the middle east as opposed to the cold war-era positions they’re in now. Why not downsize our deployments in places like Germany and take advantage of the opportunity to put a permanent US presence in the heart of the middle east?
After all, the most serious threats that are facing this country now come from the middle east and not the now-defunct Soviet Union.
