		<description>&gt;Iran WON&#039;T be in control of Iraq&#039;s oil.

Yer right..  That&#039;s because the US is there to prevent it...

&gt;98% of France identifies 
&gt;themselves as Christian&#039;s.

What does France being Christian have to do with anything??

&gt;you are too stupid to even 
&gt;get the talking points right

I&#039;ll let this bit of immaturity stand on it&#039;s own merit.. Or in this case, lack thereof...

		<description>Michale,

WHY is that a bad thing????  Oh... gee... why don&#039;t we let Russia invade us, topple our government and install whatever they want, steal OUR resources while killing or imprisoning anyone who feels it was wrong for them to do so.  Let&#039;s see just how much you feel THAT would be a &quot;bad thing&quot;.

76% of America identifies themselves as Christian.    98% of France identifies themselves as Christian&#039;s.  

By your logic, we should be deathly afraid of France owning all of our resources!!!!  

in other words... you are too stupid to even get the talking points right.

Iran WON&#039;T be in control of Iraq&#039;s oil.  Obviously, you&#039;ve bought into the whole right-wing propaganda blitz hook-line-and-sinker.

Beware Michale!!!!  The French are coming!!!</description>

		<description>&gt;our continued military presence 
&gt;to &quot;protect&quot; the oil.

And why is that a bad thing??

Hell, forget Iran as a Nuclear Power...  

What&#039;s even MORE frightening is Iran in control of Iraq&#039;s oil..

		<description>Chris,

There are a few possible answers ranking from bad to worse.  

The first is that Iraq will not get any armament from the United States until we are sure that the puppet leader of Iraq is firmly under our control.  Would you want to give F-16&#039;s, F-18&#039;s, &quot;smart&quot; bombs, M1 Abrams tanks, etc, to a country that in 6 months to a year could be, politically, our enemy?

The second is that, like Panama, we have no intention of allowing Iraq to ever have its own military.  I say &quot;like Panama&quot;, because if you watch `The Panama Deception`, part of Bush 41&#039;s strategy was to remove the Panamanian defense forces totally in order to justify America&#039;s continued military presence in order to &quot;protect&quot; the Panama Canal.  In Iraq, it will be to justify our continued military presence to &quot;protect&quot; the oil.</description>

		<description>I think one reason why this issue is not being addressed is that the US government is having a hard enough time manufacturing the basic equipment required by the troops and does not want more stories about how weak the supply lines really are.
