Excerpted from Revolutionary Worker #1236, April 11, 2004, posted at http://rwor.org This is a republication of an article of permanent interest. Note that what this article says— despite the fact it was written three years ago—has been abundantly verified over the last year, culminating with the Blackwater pseudo-hearings in Congress in late September (2007). A little solid information and class analysis go a long way.
