i don't mean to be a snipping bastard and leaving out parts of that 
inspired rant, but i must, much as i enjoy a good rant (there is no 
higher use of the internet!). however, this is what i seem to want to 
talk about, and i'm a capricious bastard, so...

money is the thing.

there's plenty of oil in this hemisphere; i think this one is a 
political control game to get israel unlimited water so she can 
divorce herself from the palestinian state, something convenient with 
our desire for oil and enforcement in the middle east. my view 
includes the idea that governments are like individuals, and thus all 
of them naturally do all that they can to gain as much power as 
possible. on the global level, this means invading someplace every 
fifteen years and bombing the shit out of it. even if you lose, as in 
viet nam, people look at your villagers peeping out of the craters 
and reconsider messing with the crazy westeners and their high-load 
bombers.
