Let us put ‘why’ the GOP might ‘want’ to stay in Iraq for one hundred years into context (instead of letting the GOP and McCain try to hide ‘why’ behind their reasoning of ‘how’ they might rationalize doing so in front of the shocked bewildered American Public.)
I think high-ranking and influential members of the Republican GOP might want to use permanent U.S. Military Bases in Iraq to levy influence over the Iraqi Government when it comes to oil prices and oil business deals. Like in order to say that the U.S. might help Iraq militarily with various issues if the Iraqi Government will give Republican American administrations or certain U.S. oil companies a good oil deal?
This type of an agenda cheapens United States Foreign Relation policies in front of the world, so therefore, it is not good as far the world taking America’s war against terrorism seriously. Furthermore, the Middle Eastern Public doesn’t like this financial agenda anymore than Democratic Party leadership and even if it might not always be happening with every administration, it's a big U.S. problem.
The problem is, neither the Democratic leadership nor the Middle Eastern Public can prove that this type of financial agenda is in fact sometimes happening to force Republican leadership to hold the GOP accountable which could further hold Middle Eastern leadership accountable.
So I suggest that Democratic leadership, through our elected Congress and new Administration, might create a Separate U.S. Ethics Committee, a new objective branch of the CIA, to monitor the U.S. Government’s public and private business oil communication with Middle Eastern leadership starting in Iraq.
These CIA/U.S. information reports on oil communication could be made nationally and internationally public in order to win American trust in the Middle East by holding this Republican agenda accountable and stopping it.
This communication’s report would also stop certain Middle Eastern leader’s agenda from sometimes possibly taking advantage of U.S. Military services for their own political purposes at the same time. While helping the Iraqi Government to win Iraq’s Public trust that the Government of Iraq is not taking advantage of the U.S. Militarily for their own political purposes.
Thank you. (I only wish my idea had more of a public platform than in a blog comment and I could have introduced my idea in a shorter fashion, which might be read by more people.)
