Conspiracies, Realities and clarities

As I continue to see verbage from the anti war movement, dissentors and protests its abundantly clear to me that an entire generation of people have been deprived or are inept of history and critical analysis.
Fortunately for some of you select few, I am here to provide some clarity to the world you live in. Consider the following if you will
.
(("george bush is starting this war so he and his rich buddies can get their hands on all that all."))

That is perhaps the most common yet mentally lazy statement I hear among dissenters.
For you conspiracy fans is sounds neat but in fact is inept. Technically speaking the US already gets Iraqi oil at a wholesale price via middleman from Iraq. If President Bush really wanted to get his hands on oil he'd attack Kuwait and Venezuela rather than Iraq.
Kuwait and Venezuela could be overrun within 48 hours each utilizing 10 percent of the forces being built up in Iraq right now and Venezuela in particular produces more output of petroleum than Iraq and its closer not to mention more cost effective. Thus if the President wants oil for himself as some of you say, why would he go through all this hassle when there is a much easier and cost efficient way to do so? Furthermore, if this oil-mongering Bush/Haliburton combo was trying to get all the oil for themself, dont you think they'd get some pretty stiff resistance from other big "oil mongers" such as Exon and Texaco? Imagine how many US workers and other rich oil mongers would lose money if our seemingly oil evil president were to control all that petroleum for himself?
Conspiracy theory is mentally lazy, if you think it out carefully you'll increasingly find out how ridiculous it really is.

((bush is out to rule the world, he should follow the will of the united nations and let the inspectors do their job))
Considering what a screwball world this is, I doubt President Bush or any other sane individual would want the job of ruling it all however I do think the United States would like to countermeasure areas in the world that threaten to export mass murder to our country.
Ironically, the United Nations was a term coined by Franklin Roosevelt and basically created by the United States as an embodiment of nations wordwide to have a common voice for peace and mutual good in the world it certainly was never created to allow rouge thugs/dictators/murderers to exploit it as a screen to keep their power nor was the UN ever created to allow pacifist nations to organize chaos and beauracracy in the midst of crisis.
The final irony in that statement is that the United States would not be in this position had it not been for the fact that the US abided by the United Nations wishes after the Gulf War in 1991 and did not turn North toward Baghdad. The US withdrew after forcing Iraq after Kuwait as called for by the UN and the aftermath was the mass muder of the Norther Kurds by Saddam Hussein and the continued problems today with Sadam Hussein.

((many innocent people will die in Iraq if bush gets to have his war))
Fact of the matter is that this is the worlds war whether it realizes it now or not.
I wonder how many innocent people have already died in Iraq due to the apathetic nature of the United Nations? How many innocent Kurds in the north died when the UN did nothing?
Do any of you remember Rowanda? How many innocent people have died there, and the UN has done nothing?
How many innocent muslims died in Kosovo before the United States intervened?
The UN didnt back that military option either, yet with this undeniable facts so many of you would put your faith/security in the United Nations, your trust in the word of a pathalogical liar like Sadaam Hussein and call President Bush a oil greedy war monger?

((war in iraq will be another vietnam, and the people of the middle east will hate the US even more))
Yet another ill-fated statement dissentors make that clearly shows a lack of historical knowledge and perspective.
One common link here is that to an extent you can track Vietnam and anger against the United States back to the end of World WarII
The culture of the middle east has traces dating back to post world war II when millions of Jews fled Europe and anti US sentiment grew even more in the late 60's with the Islamic fundamentalist movement. Interestingly enough in relevance to modern times it was the FRENCH who first sent advisor/deployments into Vietnam as early as 1948 and in typical French fashion when things got heated the French dropped the ball and got out of Vietnam a few years later leaving someone else to deal with the mess.
I will write a historical perspective on Vietnam and Fundamentalism in the middle east at a later date.

I understand many who disagree with military force, I have reservations about it myself however I urge some of you to think out both sides of the equation and reason out the facts from the fiction. Consipiratorial thinking will make you lazy, its easy to buy into a line of garbage, its easy to be partison and one dimensional but if you want to be taken seriously in your beliefs and concerns its to your benefit to seek out a balanced and objective look at the world you live in.
