The US War against Iraq: The Destruction of a Civilization
By James Petras
The US imperial conquest of Iraq is built on the destruction of a modern secular republic. The cultural desert that remains (a Biblical 'howling wilderness' soaked in the blood of Iraq's precious scholars) is controlled by mega-swindlers, mercenary thugs posing as 'Iraqi officers', tribal and ethnic cultural illiterates and medieval religious figures. They operate under the guidance and direction of West Point graduates holding 'blue-prints for empire', formulated by graduates of Princeton, Harvard, Johns Hopkins, Yale and Chicago, eager to serve the interests of American and European multi-national corporations.
