That video has been around a awhile but it is still pretty good.

Overall Americans are too fat and lazy to spur a revolution. Maybe after the melt down and what we now know as the middle class and lower middle classes are homeless, cold, and hungry on the streets will we get what is needed. But then it will be too late.

Lame, I got over that mentality after about age 25.

The reason government is getting out of control is that people keep expecting it to fix their problems. If you think the US, UK, etc are bad, go hang out in Iran and see how much they appreciate free thought and human rights. Good luck.

It was oil all along and it is oil ahead

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('The Gulf Today', '.')..The draft law on Iraqi oil will open the door for 30-year exclusive rights for British and American oil companies and these rights cannot be revoked by future Iraqi governments. The US could relax only when it is adopted by the Iraqi parliament and comes into force without any possibility of it being reversed at any point short of yet another foreign invasion and occupation of Iraq.

Now, the question is whether the intended use of Iraqi oil was to serve US national interests or to benefit American oil companies. The answer is clear that oil companies with links to top Bush administration officials stand to reap tens of billions of dollars by exploiting Iraq's oil wealth.

And so it would appear that the hundreds of billions of dollars and the nearly 4,000 American lives that the US military has sacrificed so far in the Iraq war -- not to mention the nearly 30,000 soldiers crippled or maimed for life -- went to serve the interests of selected American oil companies. True that the job is not done yet, but that does not dilute the deception that went into action and launched the war against Iraq.

The American people were told that the US "military intervention" in Iraq was aimed at protecting America, protecting their families, protecting their homes and protecting the American way of life.

As the intensity of the American losses sink in, the American people are feeling betrayed that their soldiers lost their lives in Iraq in order to set the ground for oil companies to make money. And indeed, the hundreds of thousands of Iraqis who were killed during the US invasion and the subsequent insurgency and bloodshed in Iraq also gave their lives to serve American oil companies.

Vid was killer , I'm saving it to watch again and again . Funny how I've heard the Phil Collins version a thousand times and never payed attention to the words . I like the message but will never act until my own comfortable existence is threatened , work within the system until it's clear there's no hope , then when the hungry and homeless are legion , organize and act . Conventional military has never and will never defeat a dedicated armed populace .
Perhaps the population would be less swayed to socialism if we had fewer examples of socialism from our "Free Market Capitalists". -----fiddler dave

No Rocc , your excellent . Those PSA agreements will be worthless once our enforcers are driven out , Maliki is aligning himself with Iran as we speak . We will leave Iraq with the blood of a million civilians on our hands and thousands of our warriors dead and forgotten by everyone but their families .Our booty will consist of a divided America , a trillion dollars of new debt , a broken and demoralized military , a very destabilized Mid east and the scorn of former allies . Osama and his minions have manipulated the neo-cons like a newbie porn actress from Iowa.

No Jboogy - Howie is excellent:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'T')he next several weeks are liable to be a time of great stress as these realities become increasingly undeniable. I imagine the public chatter will become increasingly delusional as the wave crests. When it it finally comes, the shock of recognition that we are a bankrupt nation will present itself at first as a great silence. The public's collective jaw will fall open, but no sound will come out. That will be the true moment of shock and awe.
