Oil slick war

[Tarzan]

group,

look at this:

[begin quote]

[o]ur unnecessary dependence on oil as an energy source, and the monopoly of
oil distribution and price worldwide help to create and sustain the
situation that has contributed to recent events.
as an example, at texas a&m university, general norman schwarzkopf,
jr., recently celebrated the tenth anniversary of the "victory" of the gulf
war to "protect our national interests" in kuwait (meaning oil). he revealed
there for the first time the amount of oil used to carry out the war, a
total of 3.5 billion gallons of oil. that is more oil than is known to exist
in kuwait. is the goal of such wars to protect our access to oil so that we
have the oil necessary to fight the wars? not only is the percentage of
global oil used by the united states disproportionate (60% used by 6% of the
world's people), but so is the percentage of american military usage of that
oil (estimated at 60% in 1985).

this quote is from this site, a good one:

and did you notice that the 'government' always, **always** invokes the
"will of the people" in their actions. this is not a people war, it is a
sick, slick oil war. machiavelli must just love all this state power
projecting all over the world, running roughshod over the people. i suppose
that it would be nice if 3-d would hurry up and end. i, for one, have had
enough of this stupid game.

i am sorry if this is off-topic, but the relevant oil stats are part of
being informed and aware. spread the quote. the people have got to know
this.
