Question Everything

An Anarchist blog

As has become well known in anti-imperialist circles, the US occupation authority in Iraq "lost" billions of Iraq's money, derived from their oil sales, to US corporations. MoveOn, in their typical liberal stupidity, is going around claiming the money lost was US money and attacking the Bush administration over it. Their misrepresentation of the facts reflects the underlying assumption that Iraq is US property, as they're (incorrectly) equating Iraqi money with US money. Losing Iraqi money is the same as losing American money since Iraq is owned by the US. Of course, liberals & conservatives alike deny that in public but Freudian slips like these reveal the underlying imperialist attitude.
