Hi Castrix :ph43r: here, i just wanted to see what people thought about what is causing the ongoing violence in Iraq.

My theory is that the PMC's(Fomaly the Eisenhower Military-Industrial Complex) are behind some of the violence in Iraq.

Why u ask?, well it's simple MONEY!

When ever Iraqi infrastructure(water or electrical supplies etc.) are damaged or destroyed, it is the contractors that are hired to re-build, so the more that they are hired to re-build, the more money they get. thus more destrucrtion = more money.

Hense it would be in their best financial intrests to keep the violence going.
I'm not saying that the contractors are responsible for all the violence, but it wouldn't surprise me if they had a hand in some of the violence.

Please share your'e ideas about the violence in iraq or
if you want to blast me for losing touch with reality then thats ok too.

I think its more like this.

Little boy Joe was a fine boy. But one day a bomb droped on his head and killed him. Joes father got mad really mad. And so Joes father picked up a gun to get vengance against the people who killed his son.

Each new day we are there more and more people die. Do you think that the people over there go "Oh well someone in my family died, must have been bad karma. Nothing I can do about it now that hes gone. Not like I can get vengence on somthing others did." No they will first mourn then get pissed off. And who do they blame? U.S. soldiers.

You have a good point and obviously that is another major factor in the cycle of violence in Iraq.

Ita is natural for the bereived to seek revenge agaisnt coallition troops, but there has to be more to the violence than people seeking revenge.

It is GREED pure and simple. The international corporations and their GREED for $trillions in profits has driven them into building a New World Order of corporate GREED of which the intentions are unending wars for unending profits. Those people over there that these GREEDY murderous corporations have attacked are almost helpless under occupation under the most powerful mercenary army in the history of the world. That's right. Our troops are merely enforcers for the GREEDY corporate Mafia and their unquenchable thirst for more and more profits. Those people over there are merely trying to defend themselves in the only ways they know how and sometimes their ways are pretty stupid. But the US government for decades, under the control of these GREEDY corporate monsters, has assassinated leaders and undermined governments and caused terrible suffering to people and children all over this world, and we Americans are responsible because we were supposed to keep our CORRUPT government under control. B)

Very cool theory.

Is it also applicable to the Muslim Southern Philippines, or parts of Indonesia, or the Muslim provinces of Thailand, or Muslim Bangladesh, or the Muslims in Kashimir, or Sri Lanka, or the Muslims in Waziristan, or the Muslims in Darfur, or the Muslims in Chechnya or --- hmmm --- any of the other notoriously bloody, savage, and self-indulgently violent Muslim carnage elsewhere in the world?

Alternately, have you ever heard the term "democide"? If not read up on it from Google and/or Wikipedia. About 100 MILLION died in the 20th century directly from the actions of Communist and Socialist governments. Start with Stalin at 35 million by Stalin and another 25 million by Mao Tse Tung, and work it out from there.

SPreston, may I ask if your reference to the "New World Order" is based on the video "America: Freedom to Fascism" regarding the income tax?
