The REAL Napster

over a plan to drill for oil near the Kurdish city of Erbil.

This is old news. They are just breaking a story now? How about three years ago when the Kurds were just getting their act together while Shite and Sunnis were killing each other.

Richard Perle pushes Iraq war.
Now,
4,000 Americans dead.
God knows how many hundred thousand Iraqis dead.
And how many millions of Americans traumatized.
And how many millions of Iraqis run out of their homes.
Richard Perle gets rich.
