Again , I consider "oil wealth" to be wealth also . as far as converts to Islam - pissed off people looking for an excuse to kill ?
I happen to be white but a large percentage of my good friends are black . Just worked out that way , nothing planned .
A few have become Muslim in recent years and have at the same time become angrier , more militant . Nothing violent or in any way threatening just a general angry outlook and mistrust of the gov.
If you were in the same room with us during one of our "philosophical" discussions you would think we hated each other !
Nothing could be further from the truth , we remain buds , even after SHOUTING our point of view . We throw some food on the grill (NO PORK , That WOULD get me whacked upside the head)
What bothers me then as now is the blame others first mindset .
You don't like something ?
TOO DAMN BAD ! DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT !
But that "something" should not be murder , murder as in attacking civilians on purpose .
And that is what N. Korea is about , they will if they think they can survive attack the south . And the scary part is , if losing use the nukes . They are not a rational nation . The country is starving ?
HOW ? WHY ?
The south seems to be doing OK . Plus the military looks to be fit and armed to the teeth .
Priorities man . They chose thier own path .
Saddam has a track record , and it is not pretty . He has proven to the world that using biological/chemical weapons don't mean squat . Ask the Iranians . Ask the Kurds . Ask the Shiite . Hell , ask our own GIs who still suffer side effects and who were denied by our gov for a time.
Last time we hit Saddam his troops fled like a bunch of pansies . You know why ?
Because they did not fight for a rightgeous cause . They were forced into the fray and wanted out . The "elite" Republican Guard did little fighting . They were there at the backs of the front line troops to shoot them if they fled.
Yeah . Nice folks we are dealing with here .
And since ole saddam could do **** he threw a few scuds the way of Israel , just for the FCK of it . Again . Nice folks here .

The fact remains that the side of the planet which has the most wealth is predominently Christian whereas the side which has the least is Muslim or rapidly converting to Islam. |
