"I don't see how any of this is "secret." "

Absolutely - I've said this for a while - every war that's ever been, between the ME
and the West or the ME with the ME is about resources, whether it's water or oil.
Well, we got plenty of water (although they don't), and considering how many
live in the world in far more fucked up conditions than Iraq, it's obvious we aren't
there to liberate people or save souls or whatever the agenda is today.
Anyone that really knows what's going on knows this - they don't have to broadcast it;
I see mainstream news as weeding out the fools.
People that watch the news and take what they're given are fools, but
those that see the news and know there's more going on and go find out about it
are not fools.
But even those that aren't fools get fooled every now and then.

"What ever happened to Afghanistan?"

I don't know...we switched our war slightly in that area of the world;
I somehow got the impression that they went from a "Terror Warzone"
to a "Drug Warzone."
Then again, I think all this shit is getting combined together in a big file in the Oval Office
that reads, "Shit We Have Little/No/Bad Excuse(s) For."

"The fact is that our country needs huge oil resources to maintain our American lifestyles.
I don't mind the huge oil-grab / AKA the Iraq war, but I wish they'd at least be up
front about what's really happening and why. It's time for Americans to have a big
naked lunch so we can see what's really pushing foreign oil policy... our disposable lifestyle / economy."

Absolutely - our pice here is less than half what anyone else in the world pays for oil;
that's crazy! How do we do that? Is it really just from bombing brown people?
Do we think that when the oil runs out we will end this lifestyle
or will we just find a new resource?
I've got to bet on the latter;
if I know humans we're just tapping this ass until it's drained
and then moving onto the next resource,
which more-than-likely we already have lined up,
and it's probably all owned by the oil companies.
I know I wouldn't be sick of making all this money.
Wouldn't it be funny if in 30 years every oil company turns into a cold fusion company?
Well, I thought it was cool...
