And let's not forget Chirac testing nuclear weapons (i.e. weapons of mass destruction) despite worldwide protests.

The Germans should be next.....they are a totally worthless country. The US of A stood guard over that miserable country for 45 years so that the sweet Russians wouldn't tap their a$$ some more. What did we get in return from those ungratfull huns........overpriced cars and an attitude...... Dropin zee Tote U miserable huns......see where you'd be if the US of A stopped buying your overpriced junk.........

The GDmed Huns

The Germans unified in 1866 and in less than 100 years were responsible for 3 major European wars.......

Germany always has been a bunch of tribes going back to Roman times...it seems they have a herd mentality only doing things in groups......and since they reunified have become a totally Socialist country ......

Do you think they would help the US of A out ...no they are too worried about their financial interests in Iraq. Who has sold Iraq the chemicals and capabilities to produce weappons of mass destruction...you got it the Huns.......Where did the the 911 Terrorists live and plan the attack on the WTC and Pentagon you got it Germany. Where did the Palesteinains attack the Olympics in 1972 you got it Germany..... where did Pan Am flight 102 orginate....you got it Germany..... The European home of Terrorism.

Also remember the Bader Meinhof gang and the Red Brigade all German.......

LOL Tabs, that's hillarious!

Perhaps the rest of the world should start Nuclear testing in say... the English Channel, just to see if the French get pissed off.

Not in my (South Pacific) backyard!!!

Italian, French or Egyptian all the same thing.........

The krauts have become a nilihistic country...... and what have they done to help the US of A lately? Don't they realize what side of the bread the butter is on? Are they jealous of that fact, that the Americans are so much better than the huns economically and militarily? That the myth of the Aryan Superman as exposed by Nietzsche is as bogus as the White Mans Burdon. The only thing that the huns do is build over priced automobiles, and thats when they aren't on holiday.... in America.

U would also think that the huns would remember that Islamic Fundamentalism is a threat to them as well......

There was an Enlish man and a French man traveling togeter and they found a magic lamp, let the genie out etc, etc.

The french man said "I would like to have a huge wall built around all of France to keen the language pure and to keep the English pigs out. I want the wall to be 200 feet high and 200 feet thick and made of concrete and steel".

The English guy said "How big did you say the wall around France would be? I want you to fill it with water".

Dear Isabo:

I don't believe all that I write.....sometimes it just sounds so good I just get carried away.....

I frankly don't know why the French and the Huns don't support the US of A. It really does come down to which side of the bread the butter is on. One of the goals of US foreign policy is to ensure a nice steady flow of oil at reasonable prices to Europe, Asia and North America. If you have US troops in Iraq guess what it will be a good military base for the USA to control the region. To put a damper on Iran, to keep the Saudi's in line,and to worry Syria......all the while pumping the Iraqie oil fields dry.... It's called Geo Politics......all hail Pax Romana...ahhh I mean Pax Americania.

Also look to Jordan to emerge as a Major power in the region, with the support of the US of A. I think you might as well in time kiss the Saudi's Gooodbye....look to the US of A to subvert the regime in Iran.....Sodamn is only a sideshow of what really is going on in the region....We want the OIL to keep the economy of the world going and we will take it.... U might say thats our answer to Osma

U might say those boys in DC aren't fking around like Blow JB Bill did, these guys are serious idiots that are putting the interests of the US of A first.....which is what every country has an obligation to it's people for...... even if the the major benificaries are large corporations that do business on a world wide basis.... So in that sense it helps all the industrialized countries and thats why the french and Huns should go along... unless they are feeling left behind....

But get this the reality of the situation is that California ALONE is the 5th largest economy in the world.....what about the other 49 states, and the US of A militarily can't be beat in a conventional large scale war or a micro-war like Afganistan proved to be. The long and short of it is that the US of A is the 500 pound Gorillia both economically and militarily......there has been nothing like it since the Roman Empire..... and this President is using that power, unlike the last one who skirted the issues to make everyone feel Good.

Tabs, I don't say this in a nasty way. I really like you guys. But, a far as Europe is concerned you are just one more country and the rest of the world doesn't believe you should get to bully other regions in the world, especially where you don't belong.

It would be great for the US to control the oil but it's not your oil. Plus there are just as many people in Europe as there are in the US, so Europe is not going to bow down to you everytime.

The big corporations control your red neck leader like a puppet, I guess it was the oil money that got him into power. Plus your Jews that have got themselves into positions of influence feeding their cousins in Israel with money and arms to further harass the poor Arabs. Sure the Arabs are a crazy bunch of *********s, but it's their region and their oil.

I don't think the good people of America should risk their lives to help the oil companies pull a better profit for the year.

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.

Yep!
The thing about the oil, Bill; is to get the oil flowing, all the US would need to do is lift the sactions. The oil saction is Exactly why others in the region want the current condition to remain. (higher profits for the rest in the region)
Furthermore, the US, having still quite a lot of oil fields, is one of the least dependent countries for middle east oil. (our gas prices are much lower than jst about anywhere)

Yet there will always be those whom want to spin the situation in to something it's not.
The fact of the matter is, there are too many whacko's whom are obtaining the means of mass destruction. When you combine that with their "cause" of getting their 15min's of fame by mass killings, you will see it becomes a bit more than "oil prices."

If the US was as bad as some say, the majority of that region would be a sheet of glass with oil rigs stamped "Made in the USA"
. . .but you know, Tabs is right; "In the long run American influence will be a moderating influence in the region"
So rethink that whole "it's oil control" propaganda stance; Would ya?

Agreed the USA is the least dependent on Mid East oil but other countries need it to lubricate their economies. The USA ie the Industrialized world can't afford to let a bunch of whackos control it. So we need to step into the region to be that moderating force. This goes way beyond just the oil itself but how it effects the world ecomony. Thats the Big Picture. Now I heard on the Tube that the oil companies were in favor of home owners using solar power to creat electricity....here in California the state govt is giving rebates to homeowners who install solar panels that generate electricity.....the electric company will buy your excess power and thaen at night you buy it back...so that in the long run one can reduce their electric bill. So the USA is starting to wean itself from oil dependency? Hybrid cars? But in the meantime Sodamn has got to go.

with regards to weapons of mass destruction Sodamn has been a liability in the region and now that 911 has occured can no longer be tolerated as a loose cannon. The region has become the most important to US national security due to that dam black stuff that the world needs a daily fix of.

I would say that if the people of the US saw that it was a matter of having their SUV and electricity or a 100,000 American casualities, they would take the casualities....cause the alternative is a new dark ages. Thats basically the game we are playing in.if U really take a look at the world economic system it's all based on the faith that the USA currency or the Euro is really worth something..it's all an abstraction of value, and if that illusion is broken the world economy falls. The WTC was a rock thrown at the glass house.
