1. I wouldn't, but that's just me. I can't profit from death. Call me crazy.

7. first of all I do NOT think we will invade Iran
we don't have the resources. If we did they would have already done it

As far as moral or not, it is definitely NOT moral, but neither is what I did. When * won in 2000, I shifted my investments into energy, defense, and international stocks, specifically China, and Asia.

Right or wrong I need to protect myself. If the Democrats in Congress were truely working for our country we wouldn't be in Iraq, the bankrupcy bill would NOT have passed, the medicare prescription plan would NOT have passed, NAFTA and CAFTA wouldn't NOT have passed, and taken jobs out of our country to exploit the workers overseas.

Just my two cents

I would still be careful with HAL, especially if you are counting on it because of an invasion of Iran
