Their economies will collapse inwards. ****** em.
That truly is the longterm solution. I've said the same for a longggg time. Eliminate our need for oil through the invention of alternative fuel, and we can leave the ME alone and allow them to kill eachother off for the next 100 years. Then we can slowly sell them the alternative fuel technology we've invented making the whole world energy self-sufficient.
bonus: we make decent $ selling the alternative fuel technologies to every country in the world.
I see this as the 21st century space-race.
As for this raid against the Iranians, we'll need more facts before you can start throwing the term "hostages" around. right now, they are prisoners. Will you
please give the military the benefit of the doubt for a change?
let's wait and see what these 5 Iranians are all about before we start calling Bush more names... yes, no, maybe so?
bah...
