Six months after the March 2003 invasion of Iraq: Michel Chossudovskyâs September 2003 presentation at McMaster University, Ontario.
Selected Excerpts from the Lecture
The wars on Afghanistan and Iraq are part of a broader military agenda, which was launched at the end of the Cold War. The ongoing war agenda is a continuation of the 1991 Gulf War and the NATO-led wars on Yugoslavia (1991-2001).
There is a roadmap, a sequence of wars.
The war on Iraq has been in the planning stages at least since the mid-1990s.
A 1995 National Security document of the Clinton administration stated quite clearly that the objective of the war is oil, âto protect the United Statesâ uninterrupted, secure U.S. access to oil.â
In September 2000, a few months before the accession of George W. Bush to the White House, the Project for a New American Century (PNAC) published its blueprint for global domination under the title: âRebuilding Americaâs Defenses.â
The PNAC is a neo-conservative think tank linked to the Defense-Intelligence establishment, the Republican Party and the powerful Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) which plays a behind-the-scenes role in the formulation of US foreign policy.
The PNACâs declared objective is quite simple â to:
âfight and decisively win in multiple, simultaneous theater wars.â
This statement indicates that the US plans to be involved simultaneously in several war theaters in different regions of the world.
Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and Vice President Dick Cheney had commissioned the PNAC blueprint prior to the presidential elections.

The PNAC Outlines a Roadmap of Conquest
It calls for
âthe direct imposition of U.S. âforward basesâ throughout Central Asia and the Middle East âwith a view to ensuring economic domination of the world, while strangling any potential ârivalâ or any viable alternative to Americaâs vision of a âfree marketâ economyâ
