BURY MY HEART IN SADR CITY |
|
Thanks for your interest. Where to begin? Firstly; as I think it is probably the most pressing matter: Iran does NOT possess nuclear weapons. This is important to remember, given the current context, where the U.S. and its fledgling Israel are poised to attack that country with, the rumour has it, nuclear weapons.
Secondly; Iraq did have the capability to produce and ship its oil before it was bombed back into the pre-industrial era by its current occupiers, America. Now, you would posit it America's duty to "help" them? That sounds like burning down a First Nation's village to save it (a concept a Viet Nam vet would find sounding familiar).
Thirdly; why do you assume Iran's goal is world domination, through Islam? Where did you get that factum, and why does it not sound ridiculous to you on its face? Even mighty America is finding world domination a difficult task these days, even with its massive nuclear arsenal and nuclear powered fleet (two carrier groups of which are currently stationed off the shores of Iran, ready to launch another "Shock and Awe" murder spree against another civilian population (the third such atrocity to occur under the auspice of George W. Bush).
Now, I agree; NASA's resources could be better spent than they are now, securing "full spectrum dominance" for the American military over the rest of the globe; but, what about the billions spent on weapons and war-making? Could not those dollars be better spent too? As a veteran, you must know first hand what an idiotic bureaucracy the U.S. military is, and how they waste the largest single budget the planet has ever seen! More cash is devoted to the practice of annihilation of the perceived enemies of America than any other ambition.
Please tell me you can see that your nation (not your hereditary one) is headed for disaster, and threatens the entirety of the race. Please tell me you will today educate yourself, and take a stand against this promised destruction!
cheers
