ed, Maybe they don't want to give you their oil and cooperation.

Exactly. But they sure like to take our money and pay for weapons and terror. As long as they get to spend their own money and build up their own power base, they don't care what they have to sell. Oil, heroin, whatever.


There are two "theys". 'They I' are the leaders........they are the ones anxious to take our money and weapons in order to fuel their exotic lifestyles and to repress 'they II'. 'They II' are the vast majority of the people. 'They I' are screwing them over. The people know that 'They I' are pimping their country to us and the rest of the West, and they don't like it. However, they can't vote 'They I' out of office like we can so they are taking matters into their own hands by whatever methods are available.

If we get out of the Middle East, they'll still find customers for their oil and build up whatever regimes of terror and oppression they wish for.

What do you care once we are out of there?

If we start sticking up for the little guy, they'll still consider it Western meddling of Middle Eastern affairs. No matter what, they're always going to view the West as evil, and no amount of "understanding their pain" is going to change that.

There we go again......the black or white scenario. People know when they are not being fukked with. If we do things really right, we will not be seen as evil.
