Its a blatant attmept at adolesent extorion...tghey want US money and they
think this is how they'll get it

What's even worse is the sick "adult" that feeds this adolescent extortion:

"If you stop building atomic weapons we'll give you atomic technology" (Both
Clinton and Bush)

"If you kill less people, we will give you millions in aid"
(Numerous times all over the world - how did Arafat become a billionaire?)

If America did not have enemies and bogeymen the defense industry would
collapse. Rather than annihilate the N Korean "threat", the US will build a
trillion dollar defense system.

By taking billions of barrels of mid-east oil off line (war and terrorism),
oil companies have made record profits.

Follow the money...

Amen!
