No. We'll ultimately do more harm and good, regardless of whether or not our intentions are genuine humanitarian concerns or corporate interests in protecting oil.

I tend to agree, but might be ok with the minimalist approach. But I fully reject going back in with ground troops. And drones worry me as they are not as surgical as needed.
 
So you're plan will not keep terrorist from attacking us. Thank you.

The rest of your post is meaningless. You solved nothing regarding terrorist attacking us. Do you not know these terrorist have an ideology that has noting to do with our use of oil or any other supply of our energy. This thread has nothing to do with our clean air act. Nothing.


Brilliant reply, since you have all the answers, enlighten us?
 
if the monster grows much more than expected it must be eliminated l think.it is what they wanted to call moderate islam.they must have known they would have to face it one day
 
And that will keep the terrorist from doing another 9-11 or worse.

if we stop relying on oil as our primary transportation fuel, that will do a lot to defund it.

but saddam did it to you and thats why you wanted to get rid of him
 
For all the bluster coming from a certain side of the aisle, I don't notice a rush to have a vote from either the House or Senate. As for relying on Mideast oil, I'd like to hear estimates of how soon we can be free of that monster .
 
Not really, there are many reasons why they hate the west, and a presence for purchasing oil is pretty far down the list.

I would say stealing their oil at rock-bottom prices is more like it--there's a reason WW2 had a North African theatre also. And then there was that thing about dissolving Palestine .

Im fairly certain we buy their oil, along with much of the world. And there are plenty of states that export no oil, who also dont like the US.

Its more an arab thing, than an oil thing.

where do you think they get the money to fund their attacks?

It's a combination war/oil thing, as we saw in the 1973 Arab/Israeli War. I know you've studied on this since you weren't born yet. We support Israel, the Arabs hate Israel, and now the Arabs are hating on each other. Let's see what happens to oil when the ISIL blow up Iraqi refineries

Oh really, how did we fund the ideology to kill the West. More how does us using oil wanting terrorist to kill us. You're ideology is naive to think if we stop using foreign oil terrorist will stop terrorist to attack us. To solve that problem how about drilling oil on our own land to be independent from foreign oil. But of course that is not the liberal way as you are against any drilling of oil in this country and further you are against the Canadian pipeline. The fact is you don't care about terrorist but want us to go clean energy. That is your only solution to terrorist ideology not wanting to kill us. :doh Gee if you're solution to ward off terrorist that hate us for our values is not to use oil. Really You have to be kidding me.

Stay on point, terrorist could care less how much oil we use. Period. You know the word. Period. Don't you.
 
nahhh.

Let it rott.

The shias and kurds will eventualy take care of buisness.

Here's an interesting question - how many Europeans do you think either have, or are currently training under, fighting with, or traveling to meet ISIL, ANF, and like groups?

How's that keystone pipeline approval process coming? The administration still planning on shutting down the coal industry? What about fracking - lots of allies in our current political leadership?


Gosh, sure would be nice to have the infrastructure up there to easily produce and utilize all the energy produced on the north american continent in the north american continent, eh?

Oh really, then to stop all us from buying oil from who you think we are funding then we need to drill on our own land and be independent of foreign oil. But that is not want you really want to do. You're only goal is to go totally green and you use the excuse that we use oil and that is the only reason for terrorist attack. What BS

I had family that fought in that conflict, and Arabs hating on Arabs is nothing new. The continued infighting about seemingly arcane differences between the major branches of islam is an example. Of course, these Islamists hate everyone else as well.

Versus got Iraq 3 ?

I've NEVER read any of those charges "you" made at the "poster" you quoted--engaging in the "you liberals" card. It's a wonder any of "them" even bother engaging with those of "you" who toss out these B.I.L.s .

Well then why don't you engage in the fact that those that have posted that we not not buy foreign oil will stop terrorism against the US. I await your response.
