I wonder

I wonder why no-one ever mentions that the War on Terror is the War for Oil?

I wonder why no-one ever mentions that the legislation the Bush government hopes
the Iraqi parliament will pass in October will give the Iraqi people full control over
20% of their country's oil - and privatize the remaining 80% for the benefit of the oil
companies who have been Bush's greatest supporters?

How does one wage a war on Terror?

Does Terror have armies, navies? Is Terror a massive beast who lives in Terrorland?

I wonder how mowing down people in Iraq so that large multinational oil companies
can procure their oil stops people from boarding planes with box-cutters and directing
the planes into buildings in America?

How is it possible to stop a person from striding into a shopping mall with a dirty bomb by
occupying a distant country illegally and stealing their oil?

It is almost as though the War on Terror, on closer examination, has little to do with Terror at all. And much to do with oil.

I say 'little' to do with Terror because Terror was used as the springboard for the occupation of Iraq and the seizure of its oil.

And Terror has been used to justify continuing the war in Iraq.

One thing seems certain: as long as the American people remain Terrorized, America will remain in Iraq.

As each successive rationale for 'staying the course' sputters out, it becomes obvious who the chief 'Terrorizer' of Americans is.

And once the oil legislation is ratified by the puppet government in Iraq in October and the 'surge' begins to be pulled down to a handy little force capable of protecting the purloined oil, it will become obvious what the 'War on Terror' has really been all about.

Meanwhile: that Bin Laden sure is a slippery feller!
