if anyone cares, there is a iddy bitty piece of a large puzzle that has been divulged to us; the privileged, unrepentant, but none the less unwilling fund providers for these wars in mesopotamia. here.
a shout out goes to wikileaks, and more especially the military and intelligence community, for telling us what they really think. in this classified survey of interviews by the RAND corporation, there isn't any posturing or histrionics. an invaluable source, all with a neat appendix at the end. smile, you're on record. here's a sample:
We also spent a lot of time, money, blood, and treasure on going after MVTs [medium- value targets] and HVTs . . . and I dont think it had a great deal of effect on the Taliban because they are not hierarchical. If we killed one guy, they just replaced him in about 10minutes. . . . [In that regard,] they are not that different [from] us.
read some. and you might come away with a sense of disconnect from OUR reality. our NEWS. OUR POLITICIANS. driving a population into a third world catastrophe is messy. don't speak truth to power, because power (RAND corporation, chiefs of staff, think tanks, war planners, top brass, war committees et al.) already know the truth. enjoy your freedom, folks.
