Ah the old "It's all about oil" dodge.
Are you really stupid are you just quoting old lines you heard 20
years ago?
We do not get any significant amounts of oil from the middle east.

Personally it really does not really matter that much to me either
way. I don't buy that much gasoline and my electricity comes from
natural gas. I am invested with T Boone who wants to get our OTR
trucks on CNG too.

Not at all. Many times here you have indicated the only thing that
really matters to you is "profit," or money-making. I'm sure that is
behind your support of the Palestinian desire to push the Israelis into
the Mediterranean, because you figure that with the "Jewish state" gone,
tensions in the Middle East will ease, and that will profit your
portfolio, if not fill your gas tank.

We all care about the continued success of the economic systems of the
world. Nothing threatens peace more than economic collapse.

I'm more cynical. I figure if the Muslims no longer have the Israeli
Jews to kill, they'll concentrate on what they do best...killing each
other.

There is a rare bit of wisdom from you.
If it is just muslims killing other muslims, it is like Africans
killing each other or Asians killing each other. Nobody really cares,
especially American liberals.

You're confusing my cynicism with your lack of caring. I think most
Muslims, like most Africans and most Asians, are peaceable peoples, and
I am sorry for the horrors they face. I won't regret the ones who aren't
peaceable, however, taking each other out, just as I wouldn't regret our
country's tea baggers, secessionists, birchers, et cetera, ****ing each
other off and taking each other out.

A regular prince of peace. I salute you.
