Ouuu boy, I like this, Good point of view.
1. Don't bet ole GW is a Red Neck...he's Yale...his Daddy was head of the CIA and was a moderate to liberal Repblican before he ran with Regan, his Grand PA was a Senator from New England......GW is east coast establishment. Even ole BJ Bill thought GW was a shrewd politican
Funny the Jewish population supports the Democratic party not repblican. The largest jewish lobby approached George the 1st about a 10 billion loan guarntee and george the 1st turned them down. Since then the Jewish population helped defeat George the 1st. Also GW has largely wanted to stay outa the Palesteinaian, Israelie problem
Look to who GW has around him...Colin Powell ex chief of Staff of the Us Military....he's probably the 2nd most powerfull man in the world right now. Cause he's both Dept of Defense and Secratrary of State, Rumsfield wouldn't want to met him in a dark alley if he's mad at you. Been Secratary fo defense under Ford who was a moderate repblican, Ascroft as Atorney General is the only right wing guy there and was a politcal sop to the conserative religious right.
The USA is going for the Geo Political throat.....and this goes far beyond just the oil companies....this involves the whole fabric of the world economy, the interests of big businees whether it's USA based or not has global reach....and thats what they are protecting to keep the oil out of the reach of islamic fundamentalism. You no more want to live without electricity than we do and oil is the lubrication of that global economy.
We got the feeling that the Arab regimes were are losing control of their own populations so we are stepping in. In the long run American influence will be a moderating influence in the region...perhaps bring them into at least the 20th century from the 14th century.
