I'm Not One for Conspiracy Theories, But...

You know that "war on terror" the US has been waging? I think, aside from waging it with the wrong country (Iraq), it's also being waged on the wrong front altogether. Has it occurred to anyone the the Arabic countries' stranglehold on oil and the rising prices of such a major commodity might, just MIGHT, be their way of waging a war, an ECONOMIC war, against the west in general and the United States in particular (I say the west in general because I just found out from a friend who recently visited Israel that the price of gas there is a whopping EIGHT DOLLARS A GALLON!!!).

Should OPEC and the Arab countries continue to wage their economic war on the US, things are only going to get worse. This is far more insidious than the 9/11 attacks. At least those were straightforward and obvious, whereas this economic war is practically invisible.

I think the idea that the US SHOULD have attacked Saudi Arabia, the country from which MOST of the 9/11 terrorists originated (NOT Iraq, as The Idiot in the White House would us believe), rather than a useless, senseless war against a country that had NOTHING to do with 9/11.

But no. The Idiot in the White House could not have attacked his good friends the Saudis. After all, The Idiot is oil money, isn't he? Why yes! Yes he is...

Totally off topic: This is post #800!!!
