Woodward's book says that they used 700 million to build runways, etc. and I think he said "pipelines." Remember how people were talking about a pipeline in Kuwait, someone wrote an article about it, that they thought was being used to divert Iraqi oil? Have the two stories now merged?

1. That is a good question
If it is, it increases the already unconstitutional act to the level of an international criminal conspiracy against the Iraqi people.

2. the pipeline area is where the warlord has now taken over

and I've always thought that some of the bombing we did in Afghan. was to help prepare the way for the pipeline.

we will have to dig deeper to find out what the bushgang did with the stolen 700 million

3. No. Not Afghanistan. Kuwait.
That whole Afghanistan pipeline is a different deal. I'm talking about early in 2003 and perhaps before, there was a lot of talk about an article suggesting that satellite photos showed a NEW pipeline in Kuwait that appeared to be running to Iraq. Many here wondered if we were stealing Iraqi oil.
