The world stood by when Israel did the same to Iraq. But in a few years with an ever increasing demand for monies to execute these unlawful ventures and to somewhat repair the damages done, Americans are going to wake up the economic impact of this foolery. When the USA debt limit is raised from 9 trillion to 11 trillion dollars in a few months so that the government can pay its bill, the average American will accept the government's financial opinion that it doesn't matter. Well it does matter. The real worth of a US dollar around the world has tumbled (already by 50%) meaning that the USA might again compete with China and Mexico in exporting cheap products. That's jobs paid for in cheap US dollars. The price of a barrel of oil (a better measure of world wealth than the $) will exceed $100 US next year. The cost of Americans to travel outside of the USA will become unthinkable. Of course most Americans have never travelled outside their country and those that have did not learn very much about how other people choose to live. These 21st Century War Senarios by Bush and his backers have only advanced the day when the USA dominance as the world super-power will come to an unfunded end. Enjoy the empire while you can and hope that what you have created in the middle-East doesn't come back to seek revenge. Sent at: 2008 05 16
