Originally posted by zDmn I agree with you for the most part. But then I always come back to one question that confuses me. If they were desperate for just oil why arent they drilling here when they dont have to go to war to get it? War is the uncommon factor in this situation. Who profits from war? The military industrial complex sure does. The central banks who profit off of the endless war loans sure make a profit. And last but not least, the federal government profits. As long as there is a boogie man, the uneducated masses are much more willing to trade in their rights for the secure umbrella of the government even though they will have neither in the end. In the USA homeland security and the patriot act were both passed to protect people from another attack. But as it happens now, homeland security targets citizens as terrorists if they are against abortion, are war veterans, own a gun, or supporting of a gold standard. Now the patriot act allows the federal government to monitor not just everyones phone conversations, but their internet searches, etc. The CEO of Google confirmed this by saying "If you are doing something you dont want other people knowing about, then you shouldnt be doing it anyways". Using a provision in the patriot act, the government just mandated phone service providers to create a new system that can track all of its users via gps in real time. Thats some pretty Orwellian shit if you ask me.

If you're going to take the "oil was the motive" aspect, but question why we don't do it here, obviously you don't understand the concept of "peak oil," nor do you understand drilling costs in the US.

But having read all of your other BS posts in this forum, why am I not surprised?
