2. Big Corporations Cashing In on Neo-Con Wars
Profit-makings by Halliburton and other corporations are indeed part of wars in the middle east, but I believe, as Jimmy Carter does, that America's guaranteed security of Israel, is the main reason we attacked and occupied Iraq and Afghanistan. And the main reason we'll attack Iran and Syria, as well.

American corporations are merely taking advantage of the war situations presented to them by the neo-cons, and truth-be-known, splitting the profits with them. Neo-con Dick Chaney comes to mind. Has anyone else noticed Chaney's low profile as of late, thanks to our controlled media ?? He's conveniently become virtually invisible, for all intents and purposes.

America's neo-cons and their AIPAC bosses are the biggest threats to world peace, and also the biggest threat to our pocketbooks, in my judgment.
