Defense contractors are not alone in their desire for war. They are supported by profit minded American based international corporations that need ever expanding markets for their products. Both were needed in one era to keep America prosperous,and are called the two horns of the Devil. But times have changed. Oversea markets can be opened and maintained by creating a product efficient nation that expands markets by peaceful means.
It will be an interesting presidency as Obama slowly puts the screws on the war mongers. The old warriors will not give up easy and will release fear producing propaganda. They will try to get Americans to believe that Goblins and Gremlins are everywhere. But if peace loving people become aware of, and stop bloody greed, the U.S. will continue being the wealthiest nation on Earth and a safer place to live in.

Post a Commentthe real issue in the presidential election is the economy...the second issue might be all the wars going on and i don't think either candidate has any clue as to what to do with either issue. :(
I don't think Obama will be the man of peace. I think that he recognizes that we cannot resolve the hostilities between the Shiites and Sunnis in Iraq. We achieved a victory against Al Qaida with the help of Sunni and Shiite militants. McCain is looking into a mirage for some illusory victory [in Iraq] he can not define. Obama will take the war to the Al Qaida terrorist center in Pakistan. That is where the threat is. Not in Iraq.
