Back Again

After a long absence, I am back again. Hopefully, I'll keep this blog updated more often from now on.

Bush is beating his drum of war again. He apparently doesn't care how disastrous his foreign policy has been. It doesn't matter either that Americans are overwhelmingly against Iraq war. He is already talking about Iran, and preparing ground for another disaster in Middle East, and the idiot Iranian president, Ahmadinejad, is helping him along.

I saw Kissinger in a PBS TV interview the other day. He said he has given Bush a reading assignment! A 600 page book about the Algerian war : "A Savage War of Peace", so he can understand the parallels between what France went through back then and what the U.S. is going through in Iraq. I am not sure if he can finish all 600 pages before his presidency is up!

Also, Kissinger was very straight-forward and honest about what U.S is doing in Iraq: Control of energy resources of the world. None of that usual nice words about democracy or freedom for Iraqis, or anything about defeating terrorism, etc. He doesn't disguise his colonial/imperial way of thinking. With his record, I don't think he could, even if he wanted to!
