Grand Theft Iraq
'We live under a system by which the many are exploited by the few - and war is the ultimate sanction of that exploitation.' - Harold Laski, 1945.
'At the end of August, in Dubai and the beginning of September, in London, conferences were held in order to privatize and carve up contracts for every essential service and infrastructure in Iraq. There was not a mega-corporate pig anywhere on earth, seemingly, who did not have its trotters in the trough.
As Iraqis flee in an exodus of biblical proportions and die in a genocidal one, US/UK government-backed corporate priority is a smash and grab raid of every asset and facility in the “land between two rivers”.'
