on Oct 2nd, 2007America’s Strategic Advantages Versus Bush’s Halloween War on Terror Boo!
Words sometimes really do have a power to change the perception of the world we live in. New York Times’ columnist, Thomas Friedman, has officially declared the politics driving the purpose of America’s existence in the world over, i.e, the global war on terror as a bogeyman belongs in President Bush’s basement for future use when the kiddies come to his house trick-or-treating next Halloween. It’s time for America to get over Karl Rove’s divide and conquer political strategy and start implementing a Unite and We’re In This Together strategy.
The world has changed with the introduction of the internet. Our supremacy in the world is diminished as a result of information flow and if America doesn’t sit down and figure out what it’s strategic advantages are today, there will be no glorious future. Putin and Chavez are banking on oil as a strategic advantage. China wants to continue to exploit its huge labor pool. What’s the U.S. got? What’s the most efficient allocation of our present resources to guarantee our future power?
It sure ain’t wasting our taxpayer dollars in Iraq. National security as the prime motivation governing every major decision of U.S foreign and domestic policy needs to cease and desist. All in favor of impeaching Bush and Cheney and sending them over to Iraq to fight their man-made war say hallelujah!
