>3) If someone HERE passionately wants freedom and democracy for their homeland, then why aren't they THERE, making it happen???? Might it be that they are wanting someone ELSE to do the dirty work, then roll in and REclaim their property and live like kings there again???

Kind of like this Chalabi fella, that (along with US DOD dual loyalists) sold the WMD lie to the US. There's an outstanding warrant for him in Jordan (bank fraud). Now he's head of the Iraqi Governing Counsel and has appointed all his relatives to head up the various ministries, including the OIL ministry.
