This is a long article so I will only paste a relevant paragraph here and give a link to the complete article. The article itself has links within it to mainstream news reports to back up its claims and placate those who think that only the mainstream media is credible:
"The document is entitled ?Rebuilding America?s Defenses: Strategy, Forces and Resources For a New Century? and was written for Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and Paul Wolfowitz. The participants of the project include Harvard University, John Hopkins University, the RAND Corporation and the Carnegie Corporation along with several military figures from the U.S. Naval War College. According to British Labour MP Tim Dalyell,
?This is a blueprint for US world domination -- a new world order of their making. These are the thought processes of fantasist Americans who want to control the world. I am appalled that a British Labour Prime Minister should have got into bed with a crew which has this moral standing.?
The report reads like a laundry list of imperial conquest. It calls for conquest of Iran, conquest of Syria, conquest of Libya, conquest of North Korea, militarization of space, ?regime change in China?, development of biological weapons to be used in war and a host of other colonial adventures which are summed up in their jargon as being ?simultaneous major theatre wars'.
The most interesting section of the report relates to Iraq. The report states,
?The United States has for decades sought to play a more permanent role in Gulf regional security. While the unresolved conflict with Iraq provides the immediate justification, the need for a substantial American force presence in the Gulf transcends the issue of the regime of Saddam Hussein.?
This is solid proof that the Bush administration?s real intention behind invading Iraq is to impose its own geopolitical primacy and has nothing to do with weapons of mass destruction or the moral removal of Saddam Hussein. The report was picked up by the Sunday Herald and a handful of other news outlets but for some strange reason has received no attention in the mainstream American press."
