>>I would add that the Zionist neo-cons may have gone too far with their Iraq adventure just as they did in Russia.<< The drive for their dangerous adventure in the Middle East, in US, in Russia or other countries can be traced back to their traditional total materialism and special egoism. The drive is so strong, they simply can't stop the adventure. The neocons get the power now, but if they continue to abuse it they will inevitably get backlash. History may then repeat. With the success of gaining top power, the huge materialism and egoism in their mind, they tend to ignore the lessons. For now and in the near term, they may have setback or even defeat, but they are not out in US yet. Nobody else is expected to come in and grab their power in Congress, Pentagon, FBI or replace a cooperative president under the situation so far. I did not follow the case of Mel Gibson's movie closely, but I wonder if the writer had to "modify" the original version because of the pressure. But I believe at least, the authority would do something with their power to reduce the audience.

''It is the same people, Cheney, Bush's son, the Zionist Wolfowitz,'' he said, referring to Paul Wolfowitz, the deputy defense secretary. ''It is not our liberation they want; it is to strengthen Israel and to fight Islam everywhere in the world. We think you are crusaders, not liberators. If you were liberators, you would give us free elections, not the fake ones to put Ahmad Chalabi in power that the Americans want. That is what Moqtadah al-Sadr told Sergio Vieira de Mello'' -- the U.N. special representative killed when a truck bomb blew up the U.N. headquarters in Baghdad last August -- ''when he came to Najaf. And that is what we believe."
