The Sleazy Advocacy of a Leading 'Liberal Hawk' (Peter Galbraith)
This is a must read article by Glenn Greenwald: http://www.commondreams.org/view/2009/11/12-5

It explains how Peter Galbraight (a Neocon "Democrat") who wants to break up Iraq, was going to make millions of dollars from Kurdish independence due to his oil dealings with the Kurds.

1. I'm wondering if Galbraith was outed for this
as retaliation for going off reservation on the Afghan elections issue. You know these SOBs have something on many of their own people for just such occasions.

2. NPR interviewed Galbraith today, about profiteering from Kurdish oil.
He denied it of course.
