WTF is the US doing there???? The real reason??? Because the US govt knows there is no hope in hell of being self-sustaining without stealing other nations assets.
Personally I don't give a shit about either US or Iranian govts - they are both elected, one based on how dumb they can be, the other based on how much they despise the US after a track record of interference.
Strange interest in counties you don't even know while messing in their affairs - that shit comes back to take a lump out of your ass. Clean up New Orleans before even discussing other nations.

You just assume that every US citizen supports the war in Iraq. Here's a news flash...we were sold a bill of goods that there were WMD's in Iraq. As much as we would all like to think that we are informed, the fact of the matter is we have to trust our government and hope they are right, because as citizens how are we to know? By reading a few alternative news sources? How do we know who is right and who is wrong?
After we found out the WMD's were a lie we were rightfully pissed, but many of us tried to rationalize it by saying at least we freed an oppressed people. Now we are seeing that those oppressed people fucking hate each other, let alone us. As much of a piece of shit as Saddam was it is obvious why he ruled with an iron fist...because that is the only way to insure stability in the region. We never should have gone there in the first place, but that is a situation that won't be rectified until Bush is out of office.
