WTF Is It Now?!?

I'm sure it's just a coincidence
"It's hyperbole to argue that the Bush administration wants to invade Iraq only for the benefit of its friends in the corporate world (though some people no doubt believe that). For some businesses - most notably the airlines, which fear billions in losses if there is a war - an invasion will likely be terrible for the balance sheet. But, as in the Gulf War, some companies will make a bundle from an attack, and one doesn't have to be very conspiracy-minded to notice that these are the very same firms that have intimate ties with the Bush administration." - Farhad Manjoo, in Salon.
