1. Really, Iraq was the first skirmish. It's the beginning of the resource
(i.e. oil) wars.

2. We're already fighting (and losing) WWIII
It started in 1948, when the state of Israel was established. We just didn't know it.

3. Scary Shit.
I am trying to imagine how life will change for us if this occurs...

An oil shortage alone would affect me negatively in that I could not make the 60 mile round trip drive to work each day...not to mention the inevitable turrist attacks that would institute martial law and change all of our lives forever...

To quote the maitre'd from Chez Quis in Ferris Bueller's Day Off.....

"I Weep for the Future"

4. I have told people this for a long time, * opened pandoras box,
and it will be a long time before it closes. The people in this country had better wake up pretty soon, because if they don't they will find out real quick what the people in Iraq are going thru.

5. He certainly has.
And this part of that story hit the nail right on the head:

We should not expect the Bush administration to make a rational choice; that would be a dramatic departure from every preceding decision of consequence.

I believe he WANTS a WWIII. Scary shit!
