Decent article, but nothing especially new if you've been paying attention since we first invaded under Bush 2 and study a bit of history.

Military?industrial complex (MIC), or Military?industrial-congressional complex[1] (MICC) is a concept commonly used to refer to policy and monetary relationships between legislators, national armed forces, and the defense industrial base that supports them. These relationships include political contributions, political approval for defense spending, lobbying to support bureaucracies, and beneficial legislation and oversight of the industry. It is a type of iron triangle.

With things cooling down in Iraq now, look at another conventional war to spring up.  The military industrial complex needs to keep the cash flowing.

Thanks LP for posting the article. It adds credence to my opinion that we should not be there.
