How much oil does Afghaistan have?  I suspect that if it had any oil, Bin
Laden would have done things a little differently.

Don't you get it?  It's their terrorism that we don't want.  Taliban: gone.
Al Qaeda: home base mostly squashed.  Bin Laden: on the run.  US
Constitution: in great peril from US Congress.

One real danger is the Chinese picking up the terror thing and running with
it.  There are several papers written by Chinese generals in recent years on
"asymmetric warfare" aka terrorism.  The thing is, nothing gets people fired
up like religion (well there's drugs but stoned, paranoid terrorists
wouldn't make it thru customs) and the Chinese don't really like religion so
they're kind of up a tree on that one (and there's freedom but the godless
Commies don't really like that either).  But if they could figure out a way
to keep bad guys motivated against the US, I don't doubt that they would try
it.

But of course, I think the Chinese know that with their population, all they
have to do is sit back and let their economy grow.  In the long run, time is
on their side.

Well, its the Frogs, the Krauts and the Russkies that are now doing
everything in their power to stall this war.  But what does Saddam
have to do with terrorists?  I posted this here well over a year ago,
but given the mutual antagonism between Saddam (Ba'athe socialist)
and Bin Laden (ultra orthodox Sunni), there's no way in hell they're
bedfellows.  Our administration is pulling the wool over our
collective eyes by making all Muslims out to be badguys.  Don't you
get it yet?  Its their oil, and we want it.  Just look at an atlas.
The Saudi's have always been in our pocket, now we've got
Afghanistan, next we'll own Iraq.  And if we somehow succeed in
bringing freedom and democracy to Iraq, those Iranians (who consider
themselves Caucasian) will surely start rioting and demand similar
freedoms.  How can you expect the Frogs, Krauts and Russkies to just
sit idly by while we milk this region dry so we can drive our SUV's?
Boy, If I lived in the Middle East, I'd be pissed off at Americans
too.
