| Pichanik, and today we're going to talk about the 10th anniversary of the Iraq War and its failure. | |
| And the Iraq War cost U.S. citizens more than $2 trillion and can grow quickly to $6 trillion. | |
| I want to thank President Clinton and Hillary Clinton, as well as all the people who worked for the Clintons at that time, Sandy Burgers, National Security Advisor, Mr. | |
| Donlan, Panetta, We're good to go. | |
| Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Pearl, Steve Elliott Abrams, Steve Hadley, Condoleezza Rice, Dennis Ross, Louis Scooter Libby, George Tennant, DCI, Michael Hayden, Chief of Military Intelligence, Richard Meyer, Chief of the Air Force and the other military generals in NORAD, David Wormser, W-U-R-M-S-E-R, an advisor to Cheney, whom I had fired. | |
| I've known all or most of these people intimately and I've known they are war criminals. | |
| I indict them as war criminals and I say now that they must be treated as war criminals. | |
| Also, none of them have served in the military except for Mr. | |
| Rumsfeld, who was a flight instructor and a reservist, but none of them have served in any of the military. | |
| I also want to indict Israel, Pakistan, the ISI, the Mossad, and other countries like Dubai, and the Bush family for helping out in the 9-11 standout. | |
| Here are some of the horrific facts that came out of the Iraq war and the lies that were seminated by Colin Powell and other members of his team, as well as the intelligence community, the military intelligence, the CIA under John Brennan, and George Tenet, and Michael Hayden, the National the CIA under John Brennan, and George Tenet, and Michael Hayden, the National Security Agency, and those who enacted These are the outcomes of what happened. | |
| The Iraq war cost $1.7 trillion, that's trillion dollars, with an additional $490 billion in benefits owed to war veterans, and the number could grow to over $6 trillion. | |
| Our present debt is $16 trillion, and of course this has contributed to our present debt. | |
| The Iraq war killed at least 134,000 Iraq civilians, and it may have caused up to 536,000 innocent Iraq deaths. | |
| On the 10th anniversary of 9-11, stand down in 2011, a study from 30 academics and experts published at the Watson Institute study. | |
| I knew Ambassador Watson. | |
| He was a great ambassador and a great man. | |
| Stated that the wars in Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan directly cost the U.S. Treasury. | |
| That's you and me, Mr. and Mr. America. | |
| $3.7 trillion in actual expenditures and future commitments such as the medical and disability claims of U.S. war veterans, and most of them can barely afford to live a normal physical, emotional, and financial existence thanks to the PTSD they suffer and other major and financial existence thanks to the PTSD they suffer and other major 40% of those with PTSD are committing suicide. | |
| Thanks to the warmongers and the criminals who sent us to the Iraq War in Afghanistan and in Pakistan. | |
| The estimated death toll from all three wars, Iraq, Pakistan and Afghanistan, previously at 224,000 went up to 258,000 and in a range to up to 272,000 to 329,000 just two years later. | |
| The interest of the expense for the Iraq War alone amounts to $4 trillion during the 10-year period of the war. | |
| That's $4 trillion in interest for the Iraq War. | |
| The social cost of the burdens placed on the brave men and women who fought our war, the unnecessary war, amounts to the medical and disability claims of over $134 billion of wounded Iraq veterans. | |
| That's only Iraq veterans, not counting the Afghanistani and the Pakistani veterans who also were involved, including CIA operatives fighting our U.S. military operatives in Pakistan, because there really was a stand-down between the CIA and our U.S. military in terms of control because there really was a stand-down between the CIA and our U.S. | |
| And what did we gain as a result of our invasion of Iraq, and how much damage did we incur? | |
| The experts at the Watson Report, not what I'm just saying, conclude as many of us warn that the war had little if nothing to do, and we gained nothing from the war, and actually we did horrific damage. | |
| We traumatized the country of Iraq, and thousands of disabled veterans and U.S. economy tanked. | |
| Secondly, the Iraq war reinvigorated radical Islam militants in the region. | |
| It went from a Sunni predominant country to a Shiite country that allied itself with Iran, the very enemy that we deal with now. | |
| So in effect, we did a very self-destructive act where we literally ended up with the very enemy that we wanted to oppose. | |
| The Iraq war weakened an already precarious Iraq health system. | |
| Five, as predicted by me and others, particularly when I gave my lectures at the National War College at Fort McNair, that the Iraq War reconstruction that was never planned by Paul Wolfowitz or his incompetent staff or the Pentagon incompetent staff Cost over $212 billion was a complete, I repeat, complete failure. | |
| Most of the dollars went to waste and fraud thanks to all of the companies that we had along the beltway, SAIC, L3 Communications, Halliburton. | |
| And all the other ones that we know about, Floor and the companies that you and I understand are part of the military-industrial complex, into the pockets of those, including Blackwater, Zee, and other security firms that were not required. | |
| Bush Jr. | |
| claimed that there were weapons of mass destruction, and that was the rationale for the new war, but surprise, surprise, as we all know now, he lied, Colin Powell lied, Cheney lied, Scooter Libby lied, Steve Hadley lied, Condoleezza lied, so forth and so on, the neocons lied, Everyone in the intelligence community lied. | |
| Michael Hayden lied. | |
| George Tenet lied. | |
| And lo and behold, we have a total dissimulation and literally deception of our integrity in the United States. | |
| And literally we have nullified our capability in the civilian and military intelligence organization, including the CIA, military intelligence, and others. | |
| Specifically, we want to thank General Michael Hayden, who was then director of the DCI, director of the CIA, and then former director of the National Security Agency. | |
| I know about him. | |
| He is considered in the military intelligence circle as the most incompetent, ignorant, stupid, as described by many generals, generals that we've ever had who initiated the Patriots Act, as well as George Tannan, who is known as a sycophant, was involved in the stand-down and was never in the military, was involved in the stand-down and was never in the military, never trained as an And then we want to thank all the congressmen and senators who gave us the Patriots Act, Hillary Clinton, Max Baucus, Jim McDermott, Harry Reid. | |
| And we're going to post a whole list of the congressmen, senators on both sides, and all of them are presently there, including John McCain, our so-called war hero, who was nothing more than a war hostage, who was actually accused of treason by the FBI for secrets that were revealed who was actually accused of treason by the FBI for secrets that were revealed But that's for another time. | |
| Not one person in the administration stood up, but here is the absurd commentary of the Bush Jr. | |
| War and the results of the Iraq War. | |
| Steve Busi, B-U-C-C-I, some moron, a military assistant to former Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld, now a fellow at the Heritage Foundation, said, quote, action needed to be taken. | |
| It was really in Iraq that Al-Qaeda Central died. | |
| They got waxed. | |
| In my opinion, the only ones who got waxed were the American public, the innocent Iraqi civilians, the Pakistani civilians, and now the Afghani citizen, thanks to Obama and his coterie incompetents, including Donlan, Brennan once again, head of the CIA, Biden, and the other criminals. | |
| Now it's time to wax the perpetrators of the war criminal. | |
| That includes members of the military other than General Shinseki. | |
| He was the only one to say that we cannot go in to Iraq. | |
| We're not capable of going in with a force of 75,000. | |
| If we are to go in, we needed 250,000 who bravely disagreed and disagreed with Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, who insulted him, and unfortunately he left. | |
| He did come back as the Secretary of Veteran Affairs in this administration, so I do congratulate him. | |
| And our intelligence community, both the CIA, the DIA, the military intelligence, all others who did not stand up to challenge the disastrous activities and policies of Bush Jr., Obama, or Clinton, these are all really criminals. | |
| As much as they were criminals in the Nuremberg war trials, they should be tried accordingly. | |
| And I suggest that we have an American... | |
| Nuremberg war trials for crimes committed against American citizens, against those innocents who were killed, wittingly and unwittingly oversees over 300,000. | |
| Specifically, we have General Tommy Franks, General John Abizade, General Richard Myers of the Air Force, other members of NORAD, those who were involved in the stand-down and the false flag operation, which includes the FAA and other agencies. | |
| They know exactly who they are. | |
| I know who they are. | |
| We have a whole list of names. | |
| Clearly these are the Benedictinals of the 21st century in the United States. | |
| So I ask you Americans to get together. | |
| I want you to organize a meeting, and I want you to go on the Internet, and I want you to sign in and create the American Nuremberg Trial for war crimes committed against American citizens and innocent victims around the world. | |
| Thank you very much. | |
| This is Dr. | |
| Steve Pachenik on the 10th anniversary of the most self-destructive war we've ever committed, the war in Iraq, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. |
