'Conspiracy Theories' aside, I think you'd have to be pretty daft to think the american military is going to build 14 permanent bases just so that they can abandon them in a year or two when they are completed.
It should've been painfully obvious from the very start that the war in Iraq was less about wmd's, a dictator, freedom, oil, whatever, than about a military show of force in the middle east and a re-affirmation of America's ability to project force within a small time period anywhere on the planet.
There is tangible evidence here, whether you believe the war was just or not, that western intelligence agencies are stirring up the hornets nest in Iraq, actively sabotaging the work of the average american and british soldier on the ground, and no doubt resulting in deaths.
However you classify yourself, whatever you choose to believe, that's disgusting and is reason enough not to believe a single thing that comes from the mouths of those who campaigned for the war, and their allies.
Also, I don't understand why posters here still continue to feed the trolls, and for that matter, why nothing has been done to curb their activity.
