Way to skip over the important point: al Qaeda was using Iraq as a
safe-haven while plotting the attack...long before we even went into
Iraq.

When are the trials going to begin to prove this point?


Well Jeez, Saudi Arabia was a safe haven and provided funding for al
Qaeda long before we went to Iraq. Further, 15 or the 19 hijackers who
conspired to kill 3000 of our brethren were Saudi nationals. Why
didn't
we invade their country?

Because our economy couldn't handle the economic shock of the lost oil
supply. Of course, Iraq provides not only the staging area to strike
against the other countries in the region...but also enough oil to keep
our economy going should bin Laden successfully oust the Saudi royals.

You admit this was all about oil now.

I've admitted all along that oil has always been a key factor. bin Laden
wants us out of the Middle East so he can replace the Saudi and Jordanian
leadership with radical Islamics. Once that is accomplished, he will have
Israel surrounded, and he can control the oil in the region, thus destroying
us economically.

Why do you think so many al Qaeda terrorists are flooding into Iraq? Having
US troops in Iraq screws up his entire plan!


Maybe we should look to become more Hi-Tech in order to free us from a
limited supply of a resource and stop exporting technology abroad along
with jobs.

I agree...but it doesn't happen overnight.

Nobody needs the damn oil if they can't afford it.

Being able to afford it has nothing to do with whether or not you need it.

There's plenty of evidence of terrorist activity in Saudi Arabia right
now!

Isn't that who we were looking for? Tell them to bring them to us in
handcuffs or else. NOW!!!!







Should we invade there next or should it be Iran?

Probably Iran, since they're closest to developing nukes. There may not
be a need to hit Saudi Arabia militarily if we're able to isolate them
from the rest of the Middle East.

Is this the way you see the "plan".

It's the way I see it, yes. It also appears to be the way the plan is being
implemented by the White House.



Would you like to
send your children?

Of course I wouldn't like it. However, my kids are 4 1/2, 2 1/2 and 1
years
old. I'd prefer we deal with the radical Islamics now rather than in 13
years when my oldest is draft age...*AND* those same countries have
nukes.

There are countries with nukes now that were building rockets (fireworks)
before the Europeans knew what gun powder is.
They never have liked us very much either.

They're a known enemy who knows that an attack against the US with nukes
would mean Mutually Assured Destruction. The radical Islamic countries
think that they can give WMD's to terrorist groups who can sneak them into
Israel or the US without us tracing them back to the country of origin. Of
course, they got this stupid idea from watching how the Clinton
Administration handled terrorist cases (ie--as a law enforcement issue).


Will your kids want to defend us against them when we've been bankrupted
like Russia was.

We won't be bankrupted unless bin Laden controls the oil.


I don't see your profession as being so secure, that enough "health care
professionals" couldn't be trained to take over many responsibilities,
that
you are charged with now.

Dentistry requires 4 years of post-graduate training. The dental
specialities require an addition 2-4+ years. You really think people in
today's litigious society would allow a layman near their mouths with a high
speed bur running at 400,000 rpm? Or allow them to cut away bone from an
impacted wisdom tooth? Or do a root canal? You're dreaming.


That's what you hear from this administration.
Retrain the unemployed. Why not?

I just explained "why not".



Then the attention may fall on the brotherhood of orginizations that you
belong to, and be seen as a group that inflates health care costs that
needs to be stopped. Can you say, Union Busters.

Can you say "you'd need to overturn a State's constitutional amendment that
establishes a self-regulating Board of Dentistry"?


I have no idea what the "plan" is. I'm not sure there is one.
There is no need to reply, I just don't see, what you see.

Perhaps you're not trying hard enough.
