All I can add in our defense, is that much more good has come from our use of the land for the good of the world, than from the natives who inhabited it previously. Yes, you too have benefited from Jackson' s quest, so find a better argument about the poor, savage, barbaric, nomadic though culturally rich natives who fell easily to manifest destiny. Their children are being well taken care of, and now have the benefit of electricity, inexpensive housing, internal combustion, oh, and beer. :)
Also, we sure picked a loser for a President in 2000, good thing we can kick him out of office in 2004. How many other countries refresh their leadership on such a regular basis? I agree with some who think his entire administration should be behind bars for the atrocities, corruption, and fleecing of not only the American public, but the entire world. I am ashamed to be associated with our false President and his cabinet these days, but proud that I voted for Al Gore, and rightly so...as it turns out. Is Kerry the answer? Maybe, but at least he will choose an entirely different administration and get those crocked-good-for-nothin' Ashcrofts, Rumsfelds, and Cheneys out of positions of power. When push comes to shove, and believe me it has! The American public will do the right thing. In the mean time, we're all [here on this list] are just doing what we can to reduce the need for foreign oil, to take the incentive away from stability in the Middle East. Personally I look forward to the day when the economics of the region make it impossible to inhabit the area, at least on the same scale. Where will all of those people go? Well, they may just have to assimilate elsewhere, obey the law, get a job, and act respectable. Enough of this 2000 year code of Islamic law already, the world awards progress...they'll figure it out. Please note I don't hate Native Americans or Muslim populations in general, I believe all people are generally good, and have gone through the four years of feminist based philosophy that is State-sponsored University here in the US. With that said- Flame away dear friends, Ryan :) -----Original Message----- From: Appal Energy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, May 11, 2004 1:57 PM To: biofuel@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [biofuel] US poll about Iraq war Why not ask the Israelis Ted? No. Wait. They haven't figured out their little problem yet either. Many don't agree with the analogy of Iraq being another Viet Nam. Rather, the comparison to the Gaza Strip or the West Bank is more appropriate - continual attrition, continual hate, continual oppression, continual occupation. But heck. The US has been very good at oppression, occupation and even genocide throughout its "illustrious" past. Just ask any American native. And for that? Jackson got his picture on the $20. One very queer country that pays homage to those who are the architects of such sweeping devastation.
