Reply #59: It's as easy as taking land away from "Injuns"

[gulliver]

OK. So this time there are a billion "Injuns" in the world. Who cares if it makes them want to kill us when we steal from them? No big deal. So what?

OK. So this time the Injuns have a few technologically sophisticated countries in their hands, even one with nuclear weapons (Pakistan). So what?

OK. So this time the Injuns bomb buildings throughout the world and even a couple of big ones here in the United States. So what if it costs us hundreds of billions in the economy, clobbers our airline and travel industries, and puts the American people into a security spasm every few months.

Everyone knows the bigger guy can just go in and take what he wants in today's modern world. Just ask Ken McElroy, formerly of Skidmore, Missouri.

Those Mus-lims (er, Injuns) won't necessarily drop a nuke in the middle of Manhattan and turn the United States into a totalitarian-leaning political basket case.

And we need all of that oil. Conservation is for sissies. Energy independence is something you get by force. That's how you get security.

Yes it is. Oh yes it is. It is. Is so. Is so.
