Forward Base America: 100 Years of War
The view from the Canadian Broadcasting Co
The blueprint for Forward Base America
Like
the guy in the movie yelling pointlessly out the window how he's mad as
hell and isn't going to take it anymore, American voters have a
persistent fantasy about their own transformative powers.
They
want out of Iraq, which is understandable. Beyond all the corpses,
walking wounded and destruction, George W. Bush's expeditionary
adventure in social engineering is costing Americans $2 billion a week
and there are all sorts of good uses for cash like that here at home.
But
most Americans don't understand what is going on right now, urgently
and secretly, in Baghdad and Washington. Nor do they realize it may be
part of a grand plan, hatched by the same conservative group that
brought about the war on Iraq in the first place.
Been the NeoCon plan all along
Still is.
That's why McSame is running for president and why the War Party must defeat Barack Obama

Specifics, please?
I think you may be referring to the current threat to withhold Iraqi funds as extortion to elicit long-term bases, but I'm not sure.
