Have you ever read the article Lockheed Stock and Two Smoking Barrels? I suggest everyone read it. It's a classic. So basically, if Lockheed wants to empty its stock, we launch a war.Prior to joining Lockheed, [Bruce] Jackson had served as executive director of the Project for the New American Century (PNAC), the think tank whose principles included Dick Cheney. PNAC served as the Bush administration's blueprint for preemptive war and authored a 1998 open letter to President Bill Clinton calling for military force to oust Saddam Hussein.
