Lefty activist and author of anti-globalist bible No Logo
Naomi Klein
sees the Iraq invasion as a dark plot to sic the American Enterprise Institute
and the Cato Institure on the Iraqi people so they could practice their radical
free-market ideas on them. Now Iraq is shackled to the IMF
and World Bank that are “demanding the elimination of Iraq’s
food ration program,
upon which 60 percent of the population depends for nutrition,
as a condition for debt relief and for the new loans that have
been made in deals with an unelected government.”
I think the idea, Naomi, is that as the Iraqi people get jobs, it would
be a good idea to free them from direct dependence on the government for
the very food they put in their mouths. They could end up like Americans and
left-wing activists that
go to the store to buy their food.
