Well.........

I think if we follow the bread crumb trial we will come back to Kuwait, and then the trial will lead across into.......Saudia Arabia, who would guess it?

They have no army, have you noticed? A surplus of so many billions in their treasuries it is obscene. But not a single paratrooper in the whole country--am I right?

That is because their army is the U.S. army. They rent it indirectly.
What we don't really keep track of is that these oil glutted bizzillionaires can buy 4.9 percent of every single corporation, motel, golf course, and McDonald's franchise in the country. And gas stations, and well, it just goes on and on. So can the Saudies. Let's see....4.9 and 4.9......is almost 10%!!!!! And what about the Iranians? Another 4.9. We are not turning Japanese, we are turning Arab.

You can buy a lot of army for 10-15%+ ownership of the country the army belongs to.

We will go where they are threatened. Simple. Obviously Sadaam has slithered out and stood eyeing his neighbors. But it is about Kuwait. What Bosnia is about I don't know. Follow the corporate investments.

At this point in time, Hitler long gone, war is once again about as noble as in the days of Assurbanipal and other drooling madmen going forth and conquering, sending home the men with both eyes poked out, and one man with one eye to lead them. And all they came back to was high priests burning babies to Baal.

Hummmmmmmm.. Close parallels developing.
