[quote=Russell]You are lying Arraya, My son participated in a freedom walk with his kindergarten class last Sept.11. No one would tell my kid that those soldiers were taking freedom to poor Iraqis if it were true that Britain and or the U.S , depending on the which of the last 10 decades or more you consider, have been carrying on an invasion and domination of middle eastern affairs, spoils go to the victor war?

You have an interesting understanding of how to “take” freedom to somebody. Also, how do you account for the spoils of war being calculated before the war was initiated? I believe they call this motive in legal speak.
Most of the activities of the Energy Task Force had not been disclosed to the public, even though Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests (since 19 April 2001) have sought to gain access to its materials. The organisations Judicial Watch and Sierra Club launched a law suit (U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia: Judicial Watch Inc. v. Department of Energy, et al., Civil Action No. 01-0981) under the FOIA to gain access to the task force’s materials. After several years of legal wrangling, in May, 2005 an appeals court permitted the Energy Task Force’s records to remain secret.[4][5]
In the Summer of 2003 a partial disclosure of these materials was made by the Commerce Department. This resulted in the release of documents, maps, and charts, dated March 2001, of Iraq’s, Saudi Arabia’s and United Arab Emirates’ oil fields, pipelines, refineries, tanker terminals and development projects. That case eventually went to the Supreme Court and the ruling was to send the case back to the Court of Appeals.
Is wikipedia lying too? Please help explain, my twisted little brain is confused.
