Never forget...there was no threat or attack against the United States...not even any real ill feelings until the United States took the muzzle off the Israelis. Now the only safe thing over there is the flow of oil and profits to a handful of ghouls and moguls.
This is a manufactured crisis that goes a long way to giving the Religious Right in this country what they've always wanted...a reduced Constitution and an increase in paranoia and a fear of "others".
You can piss anybody off if you bang away at them long enough. Look at the way America has responded to ONE attack against its land and people...and tell me it's so damn unusual for any Muslims anywhere to be pissed as well...for years and years of manipulation, theft, murder and abuse.
And you think even more abuse is going to calm things down? Has it?
