Musings of a Dumb Ass

Musings of a Dumb Ass.... There's a lot of public figures that believe Israel is fighting The United States war in attacking Lebanon. The ignorance and shallowness of anyone who would make such a statement is without bounds. We are displaying bad judgement and hypocracy at a new level of outrageousness. Lebanon has been accepted as a democratic state friendly to America till now. I suspect that would be a hard sell in Beirut at the present. Everyone knows and it has now been reported that The U.S. has given Israel a week to destroy Hezbollah by whatever means she chooses even though that will include the destruction of Lebanon, it's economy, its real estate and many of its civilian population. I suppose that's the thing to do with Hezbollah and Hamas even though both are recognized as a political party brought to representation by a legal democratic vote of the people of Lebanon (Hezbollah) and Hamas in Palestine. We have become incapable of logical thinking and are into ourselves so much that we believe we're all that really matters, and everyone else on this planet is secondary to what we wish and will by whatever means necessary bend our way. All of the Middle East is watching with hate in their hearts as we again hold back anyone who would challenge Israel while she rants and raves against her neighbors. This will assuredly all come home to us probably in an unexpected way. For instance.... We're fools enough to think Saudi Arabia is our friend, even though she furnished 15 of the 19 hijackers of 9-11 plus Bin Laden. Try this on.... Saudi is now riding high and stacking up American Dollars selling us their $75.00 pr. barrel crude that costs them only cents more per barrel to pump than it did 25 years ago. They are literally making more money than they can count. After a couple of years of this, Saudi will hold enough dollars that if they choose to call them in and use the Euro as the standard instead, they will have the power to crash the already sick American economy in a single unexpected and legal act and we wouldn't see it coming any more than we seen the planes approaching the towers. All major powers have have gone stupid towards the end. I guess we just can't help it..................
