I think that would be the perfect solution if we end up staying there much longer. Then we could finally have some kind of export to help maintain super-power status. We could build refineries and make big cities, with government funded police. Maybe we could relocate some suspected mafia faction members over there, that way, the insurgents will have a way to make money, and somebody else to fight besides our government. What would be the negative effect of turning Iraq into a satelite rather than a puppet regime?
Sort of, but it is like everything else GWB has done - a mess. He was even able to bankrupt the oil company his father and friends gave him - that takes exceptional lack of managment knowledge.Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
What about working towards allowing the Iraqi people responsibility over their own land? Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Why did Bush have to fuck everything up?
He didn't. He just peed in your end of the pool. The rest of the pool is laughing. It's all a matter of perspective. How's the water? Ahhh, too bad. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
That sums up the intellectual abilities of this administration. Do they even know piss is water soluble and their collective open mouths are filled with it?
Such a mouth on you. Why the pissy attitude? I'm suspecting there's a Manchurian Indian amongst us -- up to no good, too.
Ah. Not being Ghandhi, you're just a follower. And of a pissy spirit. I suspect failure-transference in action. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
On a more positive note: could it be that the US is not exercising free-will....its more a matter of determinism - sure its a mess but the US can't be blamed for that...if it was France or Mongolia that were the superpower perhaps the same mess would happen. Sorry lot of hypotheticals but how much is 'Bush's' plan predetermined?
Yeah, imagine if you are the citizen of a sovereign country, and somebody comes over and making you a sattelite. How would that feel???
Well, the Mexicans in the process of doing just that in the USA, and our politicians are creating laws and rules in order to make that easier for the Mexicans! Baron Max
