it's not about the stupid oil

[Doug Millison]

> It's not about oil. 


It's about the money to be made from oil, and control
over oil, among many other things.

For a clue, follow the money when the War starts.

"Don't forget the real business of the War is buying
and selling. The murdering and the violence are
self-policing, and can be entrusted to
non-professionals. The mass nature of wartime death is
useful in many ways. It serves as spectacle, as
diversion from the real movements of the War. It
provides raw material to be recorded into History, so
that children may be taught History as sequences of
violence, battle after battle, and be more prepared
for the adult world. Best of all, mass death's a
stimulus to just ordinary folks, little fellows, to
try 'n' grab a piece of that Pie while they're still
here to gobble it up. The true war is a celebration of
markets."
Gravity's Rainbow p. 105



By the way, I love the red-white-blue bow, Cathy.
