I mean..Pre-eminent think tank specialist on the Mid East..Daniel Pipes comes up with summation quotes like..."Islam...angry and frustrated...sulking on the periphery of the Econimic world".
Spot on with the psychy evaluation.
Both sides grinding 24 putting out their propaganda..with 3rd party screaming above the Din to be heard.
Chuckle...Is Islam not ..screaming to be heard?
How will things go now that the U.S. and corporate interests move into the void of the mid-east...Russia having been paid off to some degree to stay out...or found themselves locked out of the house while they were away spending money..sumthin like that.
Yes..For America its a knife edge walk...to much power and presence..and the world will jump up and scream "Imperialist...Colonial exploiter"...
If America makes the mistake of letting to many loose ends remain..the world will blame them for destabalizing a region they had no business being..ie..if your going to fix it ..fix it right!
Like the Lawrence of Arabia Movie...the one Arab shooting the other for having a drink at his well..this is the "Clay" with which the U.S. gets to work with..chuckle!
China ..banging pots and pans over...well rest assured its some logical thing..which Beijing fails to forward..but there it is..
And Russia..like the article....smiling with a hand outstretched...with a fist behind their back clenching at the prospect of having the American and his luggage coming to stay for a while.
and the Arab....still running around screaming.
Here's to 2003...doubtfull it will be a quiet year.
