Entry: A Marriage of Convenience Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/a_marriage_of_convenience#14142 Post contents: @ Sabin: "After all, the goal is to pump oil, sell arms and christianize the injuns aint it? We Hold These Truths to be Self Evident, All Waste is Created Equal. Picking who might be a better commentator on the Waste Stream we’ve elected to become is something only slightly more comic than a furry teacup." Respectfully, although one can agree that the intent of the neocons is summedwell by you, the analogy between the "injuns" and 1.5 billion people in the muslim world may not hold true. These guys generate blowback, something the smallpox ridden natives trekking across the winter snows never could. As the incident in the straits of Hormuz showed us, the flow of oil can become history in miutes, and we may be looking at the business end of Russian missiles coming out of Persia. We may end up in a nuclear winter with no oil, something "the injuns" were spared by god. By tolerating the contiuation of the neocon philosophy we are only sowing the seeds of the next blowback. It may take 10 or 30 years but it will come. Sent at: 2009 01 07
