He Has Become His Own Imagined Enemy

I was pumping gas and leaning on the side my car as my wife sat cooling in the car, on a Friday evening around six o'clock. As I watched the numbers rolling by on the pump's gauge a mumbling and low voice occurred behind me, I glanced back over my shoulder. It was a man in his mid-fifties reading my bumper stickers. "Keep Church and State Separate," and "I'm Too Poor to Vote Republican," my chrome plated Darwin fish and "One Nation Undereducated," and the clencher, much smaller, on the lower right of the bumper "Attack Iraq? NO!"

"Figures!" He then said loudly enough for me to hear, "A commie, pinko, liberal, bunch of liberal crap!" He then huffed off to his truck. I stayed silent – trying to stay cool – and letting him be. But he wasn't through yet. He backed up his truck to within inches of my front bumper and then leaned out to see me while he added more angry diatribe from the comfort zone of his own front seat. "See that tag I got! See that license plate! "I got that in combat fighting for you to have the right to put that communist crap on your car! "Asshole! Pinko!"

I nodded for him to show him I acknowledged his Purple Heart that was displayed on his commemorative license plate that the state of Georgia was kind enough to make available. But I stayed silent and he finally drove off while the sound of words of disdain for me grew quieter has he left the parking lot.

Was he saying that he fought for my freedom, more specifically my freedom to political speech? I think he was. It was a reach, a long reach for reason, teetering on excuse for disagreeing with someone who is disagreeing with the status quo. Kind of like "Jesus died for your sins!" Essentially disagreeing with the wing of the status quo that had supported you – or said they had, seemed they had.

The gas station, mouth wielding vigilante was Vietnam age and I'll assume his Purple Heart comes from that theatre. A war based on a lie that accomplished nothing. What incredible disappointment it must be, the type that weighs like a brick in the chest, like a feeling of pressure on the brain, to return from that invasion and occupation considering yourself a patriot. A patriot so long as the mind stays closed, the brain stays shallow, and selective acceptance of news and of hear-say. Another veteran of that occupation might be a disdainful dissenter when the truth is known, having to deal with his anger, his reality. One man realizes he fought and was wounded in Vietnam for nothing and eventually is cool with the geo-political of it. The other is stubbornly insistent that he did something about communism, that the world is better off for what he did. He is sick of being the minority, so he may become a recluse, hiding himself and his family from the dissenters for the rest of his life. When faced with a dissenter and his bumper stickers, a button is pushed, a rage boils up, reality is hitting him the face, an affront to so much that he personally exalts about god and country.
For the veteran, in confronting the dissenter, with hostility and belligerence, in the gas station parking lot, he has violated the civil rights of the dissenter with the harmless bumper-stickers. He has become the freedom grabbing enemy he imagined he was fighting against. His own personal imagined enemy.

Living with Heat In . . .We May Have to . .

There are billions of miles of black asphalt roadways on Earth, okay maybe 50 million miles. Would you believe 5 million? These roads of fossil fuel as tar and crushed rock both absorb the energy of light from the sun and retain and radiate that energy back upwards as heat, heating up our liveable lower atmosphere and that heat is also wasting a lot of energy as hot road beds, hot roadsides, and hot road kill. White Roads would make a significant difference if industrialized nations would just do it. But besides those evil roads, there are a lot of sources of heat where there wouldn’t not be if it were not for our human existence.

Problems in our control:

• Urban Heat Islands, From the FY 2003 Report on NASA's Earth Science Enterprise (ESE): “NASA’s Solar Radiation and Climate Experiment (SORCE) was successfully launched in January 2003. SORCE is studying the Sun’s influence on Earth and will measure how the Sun affects the Earth’s ozone layer, atmospheric circulation, clouds, and oceans . . . . New evidence from NASA Earth observation systems and Earth science models reveals how urban areas, with their asphalt, buildings, and aerosols, are impacting local and possibly global climate processes . . .”
• 5 million cattle walking around eating and mooing, maintaining a temperature while outdoors (you try doing that naked!), farting methane gas, crapping pies in the fields that stay nice and warm for about a half hour – hey its just a guess. The gas does not break down in the atmosphere to be recycled as carbon dioxide and so contributes to the dense layer of “undigested” complex gases we call “greenhouse.”
• Cars burning fossil fuels. Engine blocks reaching 300 degrees Fahrenheit on hot days or cold days. In America there are at least 2 motor vehicles registered for every driving aged person.
• Household heat: Everything from water heaters which inefficiently leak heat, to boilers which throw at least %70 of their heat into a chimney flu and up, to black asphalt roofing tiles, black tar driveways, plumbing vents which channel hot water steam and its associated heat up and out the roofs of each home, and channel methane gas from the human occupants upward and out as well.
• That darn NASA sending rockets into orbit all the time (it seems). Did you ever see the flames on those things? Man!

Benefits of White Road:

This is all a picture of a large footprint of impact on the planet, and the footprint can be made by one person in one day. But he might not eat a whole cow in one day, unless he’s American. He or she can reduce each part of this footprint, each day. And in many cases, the whole thing. Personally, I would prefer life in a jungle hut, with women, scratch that – one nice woman, and smoking dynamite weed, and having a very tiny ecological footprint.

But White Roads (WR) would be an excellent economic advancement. The scale of the projects in the industrialized world would employ, and re-employ tens of millions, much like the Eisenhower revitalization of the Roosevelt Highway initiative post World War II, had done for work starved veterans. Employment would be needed for the tire manufacturing as all new tires would have to be made of white rubber through and through as to not mark up the new roads. Motor oil would have to be clear or white to avoid those ugly stains.

For safety we’ll all realize that the roads should have been bright white to begin with. A WR would be more visible, as its sides, and its horizon image would jump out at a dreary driver, or a rain storm driver watching through windshield wipers. Exits two or three miles ahead would be visible to any driver with half a brain and eyeballs. Bumps absent of brightness would demarcate the center of every road. Gone are the expensive reflective ceramic roadway markers that have marked roads for so long, i.e. the Dobson’s Bumps of the California Transportation System.

Finally, not so much cooling. But an absence of intense heating via a product we can control and change by our own doing. Have you ever walked on a black-top barefoot? Hurts does it not? A normally 115 dg. road might be only 90 dg. midday.

From around the blogs on this subject:

At Half Baked.Com

“Ice also melts faster on black roads. Would white roads then require lots more rock salt, leading to faster car corrosion, big changes in local water chemistry, airborne pollution from rock salt manufacture/transport, &c.? Would the white roads themselves require more (or less) energy- intensive manufacturing and maintenance? How would they affect accident rates (daytime vs. night-time, of course)?”

“There's a stretch of I-40 in North Carolina that's very light gray with both black and white lane markings (black for day, white reflective for night). Kind of a prototype... croissant.”

“If we paint the roads white by using spray cans, does it all cancel out?”

“I'm voting against the idea because it's incredibly racist.”

“White roads would reflect light as light. Black roads reflect (re-emit) light as heat. (Infra red.) Greenhouse gases trap heat (IR), not light. White roads would cool Earth.”

“The light deflected off the planet would also make Earth quite a good space lighthouse when star-travel moves into full swing.”

“Black absorbs heat. Roads are black. Roads absorb heat. Lots of roads absorb lots of heat. Lots of roads criss-cross Earth.”

“White deflects heat. Roads are white. Roads deflect heat. Lots of roads deflect lots of heat. Lots of roads criss-cross Earth . . .”

“Also many people, more born every second. Hair scatters light--no good. Mandatory baldness, and heads painted white. Much better! Everyone squinting all the time. And writing in short sentences too.”

Health Care Delivery is No Place for Profits Above People - an Ethic

“Universal Healthcare,” are words on the table of national discussion again. Thank goodness. But with the words so come the multitudes of idiots who wish to push an agenda related to the issues, but whose sincerity is absent, as can be measured by the amazing illogical methodology they propose. Like George Bush’s proposal of taxing more the businesses that already can afford to contribute to the health insurance costs of their employees. Moron!

So with the parade begun, George W. Bush begins the politician show at the hospital, gathered in a small conference room with a chosen few white coats. He spouted his illogical proposals that favored protecting the tax dollars of his base (the rich). The anxious doctors and nurses, probably compelled to sit there while their children are held by Secret Service agents in an undisclosed location, pointed their ears, noses, and throats at the idiot with the clearly defined Fetal Alcohol Syndrome eye sockets and beady little dishonest rapidly dodging eyeballs.
Why in the hell do we (the mainstream public) have the impression that health care professionals, i.e. doctors and nurses, diagnosticians and so on, are qualified to give us a worthy opinion? Why especially do we rely on their perspectives on creating a social infrastructure change, so vast as initiating a universal health care system? I spent five years in Nursing. I worked in the one of the most elaborate for profit hospitals on the West Coast. I have spent hundreds of hours getting to know other Nurses, aides, doctors, and administrative staff. Their knowledge of health care politics and what is needed, or what is not, is so vastly deficient it can only be compared to knowledge by a recluse in a trailer home somewhere of Hollywood celebrity comings and goings. Next time you see a politician standing in front of a bunch of white coats with stethoscopes, keep this fact in mind, they are not the experts in health care reform! Far from it! They have filled their studious minds with important knowledge, but for them to begin to study for a solution to our deficient health care system would result in vastly bias answers.
Who are the real experts? The mother and father who lost their child a decade or more ago due to an insurance company that refused to pay for the procedure, a test, a piece of equipment. Or their child is lost due to a hospital or a surgical unit, that refused to begin the procedure without a guarantee of payment. That mother and father became experts on health care reform by little choice of their own. They studied with passion and determination to learn what went wrong, how to prevent it, how to permanently solve the problem for thousands of parents like them. The result of their study would result in bias too. But it would be the kind of bias we all would want, bias study that would result in solutions for all of us, doctors and nurses, politicians and tycoons.
If the republicans are going to take the health insurance issue and make it their own, you can bet that for profit insurance companies will be front and center in the plan, and capitation of services charges will be a taboo aspect that won’t even reach committee. The republicans will do anything to protect the cruel and capitalistic branch of human waste called the Insurance Company. States where for-profit h.m.o.’s have spread like a virus across the entire region, monopolizing all care but government funded clinics for the poor, will be protected by the republicans who will naturally decry “states rights!” Rather than allow a federal program to buy out facilities and infrastructure existing.

The new national health care plan must be fully socialized, treating all, disallowing the purchase of frills and extras or expedited service by the rich and impatient that live on the hill.
One of the first things that we the people need to get straight is some of the language. In the quest for a solution to the inadequate health services in our country, we must recognize the problem is money, not services, not technology, not research, not parking, not access other than the money. Money would solve all our health care problems. But not money alone. Money with caveats, and money with capitation, money that flows with ease and money that does not have to be seen or handled by the patient or patient’s family.
Instead of asking for “Universal healthcare.” We must be asking for Single Payer Healthcare. This describes the problem to be solved. The condition of favor (Universal Healthcare) is beside the point, a goal to aspire to, the ultimate status that may or may not ever happen. But “Single Payer . . “ describes the simplicity of the solution, and reminds us of the major problem of the past, i.e. multiple payers and multiple payees, cost sharing, employer contributions, and etcetera. The later, all conditions of confusion. A sticky web of payments and collection that allowed the consumer to get caught, without the ability to get free. With no middle man between you and your provider, there is but a “single payer,” needed to be your wallet, your health care bank. One organization to watch after, to be frequently audited, to report back to you, the citizenry. “A Single-payer.” 

Instead of a discussion of “Health Insurance,” i.e. what to do about it, how to pay for it, how to dispense it, who gets a cut of it, we must only discuss “Health Care.” That is the problem, not insurance. Insurance is a profit scam, not a solution towards better health. Insurance costs, it’s a general negative, it invokes a concern in most, it invokes fear in others. Others who may be unable to pay for it, as 44 million Americans have been, or unable to pay for a proper amount to remain healthy, unable to receive a specific treatment because “Insurance,” says that you can not. “Health Care,” is what the entire reform movement is about and the insurance was one of the symptoms of the disease. Health care is what Americans only want, just good, care. Its affordability does not have to be a matter of concern for the great many citizens. Health Care is all that matters. The saying rings true in the quest for real reform: “If you’ve got your health, you’ve got everything.”
Expand Medicare to all U.S. citizens and foreign visitors. Outlaw the sale of health insurance by all insurance companies that are not the Medicare National Fund / the Peoples’ Insurance. Create an enforcement wing of Medicare to reign in over billing, over treatment, equipment scams, and pharmaceutical profit gouging.
Shift all for profit health insurance employees into the employment of the new expanded Medicare system. Any officer of a company or CEO, who earned more than a reasonable amount of annual salary and or bonus on the backs of the sick and desperate, can hit the highway, and perhaps sell Amway. We won’t want their kind in a new inclusive people run system.

Hang Em High Boys! Yee Hawww!

1. Too bad not one of the charges against Saddam included any of the several contacts and cooperative deals with the Reagan and Bush I administrations. Gee what a coincidence.

2. NYT: " In His Death, as in Life, Hussein Divides Iraq Sects 3:19 PM ET. When will the NYT be through hiring high school juniors to write Headlines? Saddam held the sects together within Iraq, to the point where after nearly 30 years of his dictatorial rule, many Sunnis were married and or doing business with Shites, and thinking nothing of it! Morons.

3. It was reported that Saddam's face was severely bruised and bloody. What happened? Fell down some stairs accidently in front of a live video feed to the White House, accidently?

4. Worse case of Kangaroo court justice, seen on the international front, since umm I don't know. Speedy and vindictive selective justice is not Justice by any decent Western Republic definition. Shame on all concerned.

5 Hanging is a fairly humane death. It's usually over fast, lights out instantaneously. Kind of merciful for all the talk from the vengeance blowhards. Maybe they just don't know it. Death by NYC roach bites in a crowded tenement building would have been far more horrific.

6. You want punishment? Make Saddam sit in a 5x8 cell for 30 years to life. Living is largely pain by definition. Without the entertainment of course. Well okay, let him play several video game titles: Operation Just Cause; Iraqi Invasion, Full Spectrum Warrior - Ten Hammers, lead a team of Seals through a fictional city in Iraq, death of civilians is frowned upon, but allowed.

Bill of Rights was First - Abused High Technology Came Later

Angry parents who want to stop child predators on the internet would like to see a strict law against talk online that would indicate that one user is advancing sexually upon the other user, and assuming one of the users is an adult and the other is a minor. In other words they want to prevent crime by attacking crime’s premeditations, assuming they know what those premeditations were, or if those thoughts were going to become actions. It’s a lot of assumptions in this new idea of crime fighting on the Internet. It is the manifestation of the Thought Police that we all used to snicker about when pondering the future. The future is here.

Now that Republican politicians, at all levels of governing, have displayed a pattern of hunting and flirting with underage boys on the internet, we should take advantage of the up-swell of the voices of angry mothers and fathers to address the technology that brought us to this point and not cast blame on the right to free expression granted to us all by the U.S. Constitution’s Bill of Rights. Free expression of the type granted by the First Amendment came first and foremost to our country. This unique characteristic has allowed our country to grow thus far. It has kept our government in-check and our populace more satisfied, given their frequent and easy ability to express themselves.

There are so many among us who would take the easy way out of a technical problem. Easy as they see it to change, or violate the ideals of, the Constitution rather than attack a huge technically challenging problem. Such is the case with children on the Internet and the dangers they face from pedophiles, imagery, or disturbing and unhealthful ideology.

I defend the idea that was the United States of America as it was foreseen at the time of its creation. I do not defend its boundaries, or its wealth, or military power, or any particular culturally popular trend. I defend the Bill or Rights, particularly the first ten amendments, for they are almost entirely personal to you and I, they describe the limitations in our relationship with our government. For example as personal as an experience on the internet is, as the privacy that one expects when using the internet for communication, for expression, and for valued information transfer.

Four points of fact around this issue:

1. The Internet has allowed child predators access to a new tool. Nevertheless, be aware the old tools that were reliable to predators still remain; hanging at the ice-cream shop, bringing a cute dog to the playground and etc..
   
   
2. Child predators are harder to catch given the anonymity of the net. The predators are practiced at appearing to be peers.
   
   
3. Children on-line are easily fooled by false identity.
   
   
4. Children on-line are often unsupervised by an at-home adult. The home computer has become the new nanny to the television’s reign in that role.
   
   

Two ongoing programs to protect children using the Internet must receive serious attention from the federal government because the states would turn nearly any initiative to deal with a national endemic into a mish-mash of corruptible and escapable laws with no teeth. The first is information gathering: who, when, on what technology, where from, what times, what ages, at what frequency of use. The second is mandating identity proof for teenagers. Perhaps cards that unlock computer terminals, or keyboards, or modems, for all teenagers and children. The magnetic strip wallet sized card could contain the information and double as a photo id to protect the safety and use by the minor in many other functions.

The Social Security Administration is the appropriate management organization to be expanded to accept this role of security and identity and statistical information gathering. What organization is better to establish accurate birth dates? Who better to track identity cards than a management network that already issues SSI cards and assumes the role of fund management for nearly every US citizen.

5. Technological answers must be used to address to this technological problem. Answers such as:
   
   
1. Identification cards for all children. Swipe cards used at every keyboard. Cards should expire at age eighteen so that no adult could use them past the holder’s eighteenth birthday, nor could another minor use the card, if stolen or lost. Adult users could operate solely with passwords to unlock terminals at home or in public.
   
   
2. Corporate sponsors could offer earned gifts from stores and on-line shopping sites, adding points to ID cards, which should offer incentive to care for the card and to use it properly, by one’s self.
   
   
3. Every newly registering URL must belong to an adult. Every domain registration company must wait in compliance form identification to be verified. Every adult domain must have a “dot x” label, and ISP’s will be responsible for verification. Every commercial chat service or IM provider would have to save and deliver to each parent or guardian a full log of their minor’s conversations.
   
   
4. Restriction to supervised use of any computer, such as at a library, to any paroled or past sex offender, as a strict condition of release. If a parent or guardian chooses to only allow supervised online time, his or her password would be required within a timed period of the minor’s sign-in, or swipe through.
   
   
5. The ID card issued to the minor could have a tracer tag implanted within, rendering the card useless if tampered with. The “taggent,” could be vital in locating the child should he or she disappear.

If we allow perverts to force a change in our fundamental rights, rights which were paramount in beginning our nation, then we have become lazy, selfish, narrow minded fools. Our Bill of Rights is not just a set of protections against our government and a compilation of rights, it is a table of challenges through the ages to be met by the generations. Let’s not be the generation of soft sided pansies ready to fold at signs that cause us real fear.

When the parentally outraged are calmed down enough to think straight, without calling for everyone’s head (understandably), talk can proceed regarding a real solution which doesn’t affect our freedom, the freedom that existed long before cyber-stalking or other such internet behavior. Be ready however, for the hundreds of individual stories of little boys and girls who lost their freedom to perverts while “those ACLU types,” are fighting to protect the freedom of children who will grow to have rights and use them accordingly as adults.

A Republican With a Cause

Iraq is far from what it appears to be to many Americans who still trust in Government, or even still trust in the status quo. The illegal invasion and occupation of that small and basically unarmed and boxed-in, patrolled by air and inspected over and over impoverished nation had nothing to do with protecting our safety, or protecting our freedom, or freeing those poor Iraqis, or liberating Iraqi women and bringing a western style democracy to a middle east Arab nation creating a domino effect of democratizing throughout the nation, or breaking up a relationship between Al Queda and Saddam Hussien. Invading this nation because it had weapons of mass destruction was especially not the reason, in fact we would not have invaded if Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. All bunk, all strongly evidenced to be bunk already by thousands of other documents besides this, especially by the now infamous Downing Street Memos.
A politician and his or her political planners will do nothing for just one reason. If they had nothing to do with their entire day, not even getting out of bed for the sake of being awake would be enough by itself to rise and face the day. Two or three beneficial reasons are usually the standard, and even better is three or four. The politicians of either party will practice their actions in this manner, but there is one party that takes the deceptive route consistently, because the motivations for their actions are usually unpalatable to the public. The debacle encircling a quagmire, wrapped in political deception that is the Iraq invasion and occupation is the ultimate example in our modern history of this often unrealized rule.
Often those needed to be brought into the fold to carry out said plan, will have goals they themselves need fulfilled as a condition for their participation, adding to the wish list (or “grab bag”) of causes required to conduct a scheme, or a conspiracy, a legislative action like an “earmark” into a budget bill and etcetera. A cadre becomes meshed together, most of its members without knowledge of the others, and deals are then made, hand offs, hand outs, pay-offs and favors, trades and reconciliation’s are set-up to be conducted in a web of actions traceable only by some super computer from a yet to be invented science fiction future.
Political Correctness has motivated the Republicans to go into stealth mode and pass legislation that hides their feelings and hides the intolerance of their own voting constituents, and the stereotypes they hold; the hatred of the lower classes who thanklessly milk the public dole. These past couple of decades this known obstacle has kept the Republican politician in-check, but only until he or she learned how to circle around that intimidating boulder that remains called Political Correctness Rock. Examples of the non “pc” type of goals of Republicans might be; expanded oil drilling, oil rights, destruction of protections either environmental, labor, or corporate legal, elimination of public programs including schools and Head Start, lunches, and food stamps, Medicaid and Veteran’s benefits. All terribly non-politically correct and publicly embarrassing to the point where many of their own favored voters would turn away from them, if they only knew the truth.
So to avoid these embarrassments and violations of Political Correctness, paying back the lumber companies becomes The Healthy Forests Initiative, and returning a campaign promise to the Coal industry becomes the Clear Skies Initiative, and covertly destroying public schools becomes No Child Left Behind, and shrinking-down the need for the funding of social welfare programs is introduced as Faith Based Initiatives.
With Iraq they had it in mind all along. Kill several birds with one stone and profit enormously while at it. The administration at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue are former oil company executives, former oil industry tycoons. VP Cheney (really the president) is still on the board at Halliburton/KBR. Rumsfeld was a Pharmaceutical Company (Searl) CEO, peddling his influence and arms directly to Saddam Hussien in 1983. Rice was a Chevron board member – and in a testimony to her relationship with them, they named a giant new tanker for her. Bush: his family's ties to the Bin Laden family (yes the same Bin Ladens) go way back to his failed days as a drunken stoner in Houston, collapsing companies and drilling dry holes. Former aero Industry executives from Lockheed Martin and Boeing, largely make-up the rest of the administration. Currently there is 8.8 billion in cash completely missing from Iraq supplements. Someone has this money and its disappearance has become history’s greatest theft in dollar amount. Who would have the ability, or the power, to seemingly ship this much money out of Iraq, being seen by many witnesses, using several trucks and laborers and likely a military airlift cargo plane? War profiteering is one of most dastardly and unpatriotic and traitorous actions a person can do to his or her country.
Iraq was about as un “pc,” as war gets and that is clearly why, it’s launching and delivery to the people of the United States was deceptive, was handled by a cadre, was mixed into a network of favoritism, payments and corporate pay outs. The president lied to congress about the validity of military intelligence. It was an unprovoked invasion. .

The United States Constitution requires that the president and the congress follow every treaty as “the law of the land.” All treaties ever signed by the United States regarding rules of war, including torture, detainment, field conduct, which weapons, civilian death, were violated in the course of this illegal occupation.

Article VI,

“This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any state to the Contrary notwithstanding.”

What the Republicans and the Administration of George
W. Bush, and their friends and colleagues, gained by invading and occupying Iraq:

· Control over Iraqi oil export amounts and rates of production. It doesn’t matter whether the oil flows fast or slow, large or small, just that the Americans, or the American companies have their hands on the pipelines and pumps. Preferably the oil flow is slow or hindered resulting in high gas prices via OPEC realized opportunities.

· Provide tens of thousands of for profit American jobs for corporations that’s for years have been known to, connected to, or having dealt with the administration officials and family. Out or work Iraqis are standing on the side of roads watching chubby Americans drive by them in trucks making good money while they experience %50 unemployment.

· Reap political benefits of being a war president at war. Enjoy all the political benefits of antiquated war time rhetorical phrases: Fighting for Our Freedom! Over There! While They Are Dying For Our Freedom! Support the Troops! Freedom Isn’t Free!

· Vengeance for 1993 Saudi Arabian attempted assassination of George W. Bush’s daughters, wife and mother and father. Bettering his father by invading and removing Saddam Hussien, as many said his father should have in 1991.

· Establishing permanent military presence throughout Iraq, to threaten and perhaps launch attacks on Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia in future years.

· An opportunity to practice long discussed hypotheses of slim and efficient mobile military supported by private mercenary armies.

· Instigate Armageddon as described in Revelations. As has been publicly divulged to be believed in by this president. Destabilize the entire mid east causing eventually a massive war over Israel which kills all Jews, at such time the U.S. can step in, kill off remaining Muslims and fill the Holy Land with pasty white Christians.

Other sources indicating War Profiteering by the Bush administration:

War Profiteering Iraq

In summary:

· No politician gets out of bed without a plan that accomplishes at least more than one goal.

· Both parties politicians do this but Republicans have to hide their goals completely, due to the non politically correct nature of their goals. “If their own voters only knew.”

· Iraq is our nation’s current prime example of this deceptiveness; with the gouging and thievery and corporate involvement in Iraq, the American occupation is the epitome of deceptive greed/goal motivated actions by a government’s politicians.

· The Iraq invasion and occupation violated the treaties of many conventions both brokered by the United Nations and by the International Red Cross at the Geneva Conferences. Constitutionally, treaties are the law of the land.

· There are numerous reasons for the Bush administration to have invaded and occupied Iraq, besides those told to the public. Including religious belief in End of Days scenario for which George W. Bush has said “God told him to preside over.”
