Reply #124: Yes: The use (misuse) of Depleted Uranium...

...has rendered much of Iraq inhospitable to human habitation. The horrors that have already happened due to Depleted Uranium,(DU), might be considered a form of genocide.

I further feel that war has been profitable to some who are in the bfee. Haliburton and Blackwater come to mind. Peace in Iraq one year after this invasion would arguably not have been as profitable for those two. It would not have been as profitable for the Military Industrial Complex either.

This leads me to suspect that the powers that be which brought us to Iraq wants Iraq to remain in chaos for as long as possible in order to gain as much profits as possible. I further suspect that those same powers that be want to expand that chaos into Iran in order to gain even more profits.
This could also be called a form of genocide.

I am no geo-political lawyer but I think that future world-history will look back at America as having committed genocide in the Middle East. I think that a world-court today would debate this but in the end conclude that the bush-crime-family as being criminals who brought genocide to the Middle East and did so for profit only, not for anything else. This is proof that capitalism unregulated is a bad thing.
