You make a great case for the war as the catalyst for the destabilization of the entire region.

You think that is good, do you?

Namaste!

Has the entire history of this thread been equally blind to the realities of the region?


It is claimed that we have a military presence in 140 countries of the world. And only the gullible believe we are there just to protect the interests of others, and not ours.

It is the genius of the gullible to convert our vices into virtues. And you seem to excel in it.

Did you know that the GDP of Kuwait with less than one tenth the population of Iraq is now larger than that of Iraq? Saudi Arabia with its advanced weaponry can swat Saddam like a gnat.

Did you know that during the last Gulf war, when Iraq was ten times stronger, we fabricated photographs to convince Saudi Arabia to join the war. Otherwise, Saudi Arabia did not feel threatened enough to go to war.

Yeah, keep on defending the world. And feeding your fantasies.

This high level of ignorance can only have been acquired through diligent self-deception. May you forever remain a genius in your mind.
