My desire?

My desires do not matter.

What does matter is that the war on terror is a scam. If it was not a scam, we would not allow what is going on in Pakistan.

Much like the war on drugs, the war on terror is an excuse to further other agendas.

Brzezinski spelled it our for us, but most people just don't understand how much weight his opinions carry. There is a reason David Rockefeller chose Brzezinski to help found the Trilateral Commission. The reason is that Brzezinski knows geopolitics better than any other living person.

Key Quotes From Zbigniew Brzezinksi's Seminal Book


"Ever since the continents started interacting politically, some five hundred years ago, Eurasia has been the center of world power."- (p. xiii)

"... But in the meantime, it is imperative that no Eurasian challenger emerges, capable of dominating Eurasia and thus of also challenging America. The formulation of a comprehensive and integrated Eurasian geostrategy is therefore the purpose of this book.” (p. xiv)

"In that context, how America 'manages' Eurasia is critical. A power that dominates Eurasia would control two of the world's three most advanced and economically productive regions. A mere glance at the map also suggests that control over Eurasia would almost automatically entail Africa's subordination, rendering the Western Hemisphere and Oceania geopolitically peripheral to the world's central continent. About 75 per cent of the world's people live in Eurasia, and most of the world's physical wealth is there as well, both in its enterprises and underneath its soil. Eurasia accounts for about three-fourths of the world's known energy resources." (p.31)

“Never before has a populist democracy attained international supremacy. But the pursuit of power is not a goal that commands popular passion, except in conditions of a sudden threat or challenge to the public's sense of domestic well-being. The economic self-denial (that is, defense spending) and the human sacrifice (casualties, even among professional soldiers) required in the effort are uncongenial to democratic instincts. Democracy is inimical to imperial mobilization." (p.35)

“The momentum of Asia's economic development is already generating massive pressures for the exploration and exploitation of new sources of energy and the Central Asian region and the Caspian Sea basin are known to contain reserves of natural gas and oil that dwarf those of Kuwait, the Gulf of Mexico, or the North Sea." (p.125)

"America is now the only global superpower, and Eurasia is the globe's central arena. Hence, what happens to the distribution of power on the Eurasian continent will be of decisive importance to America's global primacy and to America's historical legacy." (p.194)

"Without sustained and directed American involvement, before long the forces of global disorder could come to dominate the world scene. And the possibility of such a fragmentation is inherent in the geopolitical tensions not only of today's Eurasia but of the world more generally." (p.194)

"With warning signs on the horizon across Europe and Asia, any successful American policy must focus on Eurasia as a whole and be guided by a Geostrategic design." (p.197)

"That puts a premium on maneuver and manipulation in order to prevent the emergence of a hostile coalition that could eventually seek to challenge America's primacy..." (p. 198)

"The most immediate task is to make certain that no state or combination of states gains the capacity to expel the United States from Eurasia or even to diminish significantly its decisive arbitration role." (p. 198)

"In the long run, global politics are bound to become increasingly uncongenial to the concentration of hegemonic power in the hands of a single state. Hence, America is not only the first, as well as the only, truly global superpower, but it is also likely to be the very last." (p.209)


"Moreover, as America becomes an increasingly multi-cultural society, it may find it more difficult to fashion a consensus on foreign policy issues, except in the circumstance of a truly massive and widely perceived direct external threat." (p. 211)

THERE IS MUCH, MUCH MORE, BUT IT IS TO EACH OF US TO SEARCH FOR THE TRUTH.

I do not favor invading Pakistan. I favor taking the money we spent on the war on terror and putting it into alternative energy and then we could have told the entire ME to go eat their oil.

I would bet that over 1 trillion US dollars could have gone a long to way to making alternative energy a reality. Instead we use it to invade Iraq and create even more terrorists.

Of course it is too late now to undue the past, but hey, the oil companies are at least making record profits for their shareholders. Yeah.

There is no war on terrorism. It is a scam. It is about power and money.

Duh.

What does Iraq have to do with record profits for oil companies? Anything?

Also...I'll make you a bet. When we find an alternative to oil, the government will have absolutely nothing to do with it.
