And the methods aren't always so tidy nor well thought out. But of course these are age old strategies that can then bring about any number of unforeseen cosequences.

Remember when the British SAS shot at police in Basra, in what many Iraqis speculated was an intended staged car bombing followed by a "spike in violence" in Iraq. This is but another example of underlying strategy which serves to keep the country mired in turmoil to justify the continued presence of occupational forces.

This isn't a speculative conspiracy, it's demonstrable by the very words and deeds of the megalomaniacs now running the blood-soaked show in Iraq.

In November 2002 the Asian Times reported on the creation of P2OG, a Pentagon operation aimed at, "stimulating reactions" among terrorists and states possessing weapons of mass destruction, meaning it would prod terrorist cells into action, thus exposing them to "quick-response" attacks by US forces."

Rather than the traditional intelligence model of infiltration and sting operations, the Pentagon is now willing to allow terrorist atrocities to take place and indeed provoke them into being unleashed.
