...the military-industrial-petroleum complex

lions and tigers and bears - oh my!

#6 This guy wrote War At the Top of the World about the India-Pakistan struggle over Kashmir. If you read it, you'll quickly realize the guy has a love-jones for Islamic warriors especially the Paks.

#7 political organ by disgracefully handing the barely elected president carte blanche to wage an unprovoked war ....

this guy hates bush - the analysis is very biased and thus not worth much.....

just because the US starts to defend herself she is labeled imperialist! well if being imperialist is defending your nation then so be it!

my personal liberty is the same as they were per 9-11. if you are acting in way that threatens your country then you should be locked away.

The very term "terrorism" is a nonsense designed for propaganda effect; a damning label applied by the administration to groups or states strongly opposing U.S. policy.

another part of his essay that makes me throw out the lot --- yea sure terrorism was invented by the bush admin so we could wage war - what a load of CRAP!

simple - mess with us and we will react - we are not going to go the french and ask for permission (remember it is the french that have launched over 25 military incursions into african countries without any un approval or world sanction - and this was to protect french economich interests and prestige - not defending your homeland!)but have the hegemon attack a country which is/has been very beligerent towards us and we are imperialists!

maybe it will sink into the nutcases of the middle east that their free ride on hurting americans is over.

#8 Mankindâs three worst scourges are religious fanaticism, nationalism and imperialism. Each of these three evils has been whipped up by the Bush administration to justify domination abroad,..

The only thing this article proves is that Eric Margolis is just another member of the lefty whacko crowd. Certainly not something to be particularly proud of. What's worse, the U.S. has its fair share of these persons inside its boundaries, and this is precisely where the "danger" lies - the willingness of these types to sacrifice the lives and security of their own allies and countrymen, in order to curry favor with nations whose interests are measured solely in legal tender.

#9 TGA: I'm frightened for the English language if anything this overwritten can get into a major newspaper: famous dictum (is there any other kind?), bestrode the globe, a belligerent colossus (ooh, that's a new one), utter contempt, abject, cowardly, scourges, cabal, its very soul, steady drumbeat, etc. (I can't really tell if this comes from a major newspaper, however, since the link don't work.)

I am glad to see, however, that America has achieved unrestrained world domination. As a representative of the neocon cabal, I hereby cede to you,TGA , sovereignty over Thuringia and all the maidens within its boundaries. Just send me a Beemer in return.

#11 Lies and propaganda that were packaged in the best tradition of Soviet agitprop as news, then force-fed by a servile media to an ill-informed public shockingly deficient in any sense of history, geography, or foreign affairs.

There's that S-factor again. Eric cannot even get face time on CNN, so what does that tell us? Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the stupidest of them all?

#12 Matt, if you want Beemers, you have to cede Bavaria!

Imperialism my ass! Geography rules!

#13 TGA, what is this, a bazaar? OK, Bavaria, but the Beemer's gotta be a late-model 700 series with the full sound package.

#14 One of what I hope will be the enduring legacies of our rather mild response to 911 is the final and total discrediting of our domestic left ( and their democratic allies and enablers. ), as they publish articles such as this; and they show their followers and their ideologies to be as barbaric and bankrupt as Islam.

#15 What the fuck's a "farrago", anyway? And how do you say "bite me" in Leftoid?

#16 Matt, I think TGA is pointing out that BMWs are (primarily) made in Bavaria (that's what the B stands for). You want to give him Thuringia, you're going to have to take your tribute in sausages.

(They have a plant in Leipzig now, though, TGA.)
