I totally disagree. Military power is much more simple than most people want to believe. 60 years of post ww2 rhetoric convinced people that war was bad, with our disgrace in Vietnam being the icing on the cake.

We may not like to randomly kill people in the name of war as civilized Zionists. However, there are 1 billion Muslims that profit from higher oil prices every time someone dies.

Jihad is not about the after life, it's about the after shock of oil prices. Every time another Muslim commits an act of terrorism, we reward all Muslims with higher energy prices. No wonder why they love guns and soicide belts.

One of these days, all you self righteous Bush bashers are going to realize the violence against the Muslims is self inflicted for their own benefit. It doesn't matter who dies - a Shiite, a Jew, a Hezbelloh soldier/terrorist, a US soldier. The only thing that matters to the Muslims is that negative headlines keep the price of oil going in a higher direction. Meanwhile, they are pumping so much crude that inventories are above the 5 year averages with prices charging to $78 per barrel.
