April 17, 200521 yr further proof this adminstration has no clue and are is just simply imperialistic, and couldnt give two shits about the people they are supposed to care about.
April 17, 200521 yr Author Isn't impirialism supposed to have nifty phat payoffs in terms of exploiting the occupied areas?
April 17, 200521 yr Isn't impirialism supposed to have nifty phat payoffs in terms of exploiting the occupied areas? 745996[/snapback] in the old definition...yes. in many ways there are many ways to exploit the middle eastern nations.
April 17, 200521 yr Author Now that the cold was is over, could you list a few of these "many ways" ways? Say three or four. Cold war proxies were obvious.
April 18, 200521 yr Author I'll be a real sport here - how about only one or two of these "many ways" the US can exploit ME nations? Certainly, if there are "many", you should be able to rattle off the "highlights reel" with no problem at all.
April 18, 200521 yr You had an ample opportunity to foster reasonable discussion through shamrock's cordial question for your opinion. Instead you chose to antagonize someone again with another condecending line of inquiry.
April 18, 200521 yr Well we sure aren't exploiting them for their oil. That was Wolfy's grand plan to have the Iraqi reconstruction "pay for itself". How's that working out by the way?
April 18, 200521 yr Author You had an ample opportunity to foster reasonable discussion through shamrock's cordial question for your opinion. Instead you chose to antagonize someone again with another condecending line of inquiry. Asking for an example of a claim isn't condecending. As for Shamrock's question - do you really believe it required an answer? Do you really believe they are so uninformed as to not know what the real probability of that question is? Maybe if he/she/it were a 10 year old, but he/she/it isn't 10 based on their language usage in past posts. OK though, I'll humor you. My opinion the chances of that happening is somewhere between very very slim and none. To put a number on it: 0.00001 A glance at this sat pic tell the whole "Iran (non)invasion" story...for anyone who is at least a bit cluefull that is.
