THE TRUTH BEHIND OUR OIL CRISIS BY THE GREAT NOAM CHOMSKY
Posted 5 weeks 4 days ago byIt certainly is the oil, stupid according to Noam Chomsky as to why we are in this war on terror. Everything is falling into place with the big oil conglomerates and Iraq's oil ministry. Is this any surprise to anyone? I doubt it.

Oil is a big factor
Submitted on July 12th, 2008 by AnonymousAs evidenced by 9/11 the whole war on terror is not just for oil, but I do agree that the need for oil has become entangled with the war on terror because both concern a similar region of the world. Competition for oil will continue to increase and it seems the US may choose to confront that need with military might. I hope not.
Well Now..

Kool......... no worries... thank you for clearing that up. Sometimes you can't tell what someone is saying unless you question the statement. I apologize :)
John.... I understand what you're saying. Let me get back to you on that last thought. I can always count on you for back up info when needed. As I shared, I don't hang on his every word, but find him fascinating. I also find the smell of gasoline fascinating LOL.............................................
Oil reserves
Submitted on July 12th, 2008 by janmbThe countries that have untapped oil reserves ( for example RUSSIA ) are using up everyone elses and paying the huge prices.
Once the Saudis for one example run out of oil --they will have made their big bucks so it shouldn't hurt the royalty any.
The countries that still have oil in the ground to tap will be the ones who will be the super-powers. This in taking in consideration the change-over to alternative sources of energy will not come quickly, efficiently and effectively for anyone.
I don't know, Skye
Submitted on July 12th, 2008 by John 2000I have some serious issues with this man even if I might find some random things I could agree with him on ... like the Serbian/NATO war which we both opposed ... His total world view is extremely anti-America, so I cannot trust any objectivity he might have bestowed upon him ... even when he makes some good points.

Submitted on July 11th, 2008 by koolmom21First of all my comment "Keep doing your research-the truth is out there" was not personally direct to you.
When I re-read my comment I can see why you thought that it was.
What I was saying was-We will never know for sure. I do not believe the truth is out there.
To answer your question-I am an independent. I Believe in the middle of the road not left or right. I also look to see who votes this way in congress.
If we as a nation could take the good of republicans and the good of the democrats-we would have a happier nation.

Submitted on July 11th, 2008 by Skye RiversDo my research huh..... I would suggest you do yours. Noam Chompsky's in my opinion is briiliant. I don't hang on his every word, but I would suggest before you start pointing the research fingers and telling me to keep searching for the truth it is out there, may I suggest you start with your own garden and grow from there?
I don't tell you who get your truth, please do not preach to me where to find mine. And BTW... just because I find him fascinating, does not mean he is my truth or the one with all the answers. He just has a different take on things and thinks to a different drum. My truth comes from within, not without and I go by the saying it's the message, not the messenger, what I do with that information and where I go with it from there is on me. Let me ask you this... are you a Republican?
Thank you for your pointed comment.
farinheit 9-11 for starter
Submitted on July 11th, 2008 by Anonymousshows ties between oil an Bush family, Saudi ruler's the BinLauden's. if it wasn't so then why hasn't Bush family sued for defimation of character. Think about it. Illegal Imagrent's, Oil, Illegal Drug's, it's all up and it's all about the MONEY. Bush was even recorded at a dinner saying welcome all the haves and the have more's. lol, The majority of Americans are blind. The federal reserve is not run by U.S. government but by Old School Money. Rockefeller's (I may have miss spelled name) ring a bell. My church believes it is money of Euro an U.S. might that is the beast in the book of Revalation. It's all building to a END.
the truth
Submitted on July 11th, 2008 by koolmom21Noam Chomsky is a libertarian socialists. He is not the person I would go to for any kind of information.
He is also a philosopher and he thinks he has it all figure out.
Keep doing your research-the truth is out there.
