That's a rebuttal?

Until proven otherwise, behaviour suggests that you do support the use of fallaciously grand idealism (free peoples) in foreign policy, suitably backed by military force, to establish US protectorates in the region to ensure that the US gets access to all the oil it desires and not a drop less.

I phrased this quite intentionally, starting with "until proven otherwise", for people can be judged by their words and deeds.

I have clearly demonstrated where my opinion lies and I am most certainly not ashamed of my stand.

Its too bad that you, and carranza2, prefer to hide behind forever-nuanced statements.

The bottom line is one is either for taking resources and land from others by force, or one is against it. Which are you?
