War profiteering's long reach

[live love laugh]

I believe the occupation(s) are not really part of any real ideal on the part of the Cons-they are out for pure profit. We know that the US' image has been damaged because of our bully tactics. I just wonder what will stop other nations from starting wars for profit as well? Russia, North Korea--after watching the "success" of the American war machine, probably yearn to amass the same wealth that the Cons have. All they have to do is do what we did.

I don't know if I made much sense above but the point I am trying to make is that not only are we damaging our reputation worldwide, we are setting an example which, if followed, will lead to more death and destruction no matter whether we are "at war" or not. Other countries will move in to make money just like we did off war.

Can you say World War III? I believe that we have sown the seeds for WWIII.
