(13. März 2007) In recent months the Washington-based Think Tank “Brookings Institution” published two memorandums about possible future developements in Iraq, “The Bosnia Option” by Michael E. O’Hanlon and Edward P. Joseph , and “Things Fall Apart”, by Kenneth Pollack and Daniel Byman. Pollack worked for the Clinton Administration, the CIA and CNN, Byman was involved in 9/11 “investigations” and worked for the right-wing RAND Corporation.

Both memos deal with a split of Iraq, ethnical cleansing, millions of refugees and camps for “centered” civilians. No good news – especially from a German point of view.
This “Polish Partition” of Iraq into 3 parts, a kurdish, a shiite and a sunni one is included in those scenarios, and that´s exactly what Hezbollah Chief Hassan Nasrallah predicted in Hersh´s interview with him last December.

Unfortunately, that kind of scenario also is part of a strategy paper by the U.S. military, which were disclosed last summer in the “Armed Forces Journal”.
