U-S-A suffers from delusions of grandeur. Western Europe is a larger
economic unit than U-S-A. The world without U-S-A makes everything it
needs from paper clips to rockets which take us into space. U-S-A is
Canada's biggest trading partner but if U-S-A were to drop into a black
hole in space tomorrow, Canada would suffer economically for only a few
years as it can trade quite well with Asia (another economic bloc as big
as U-S-A) and Europe. Also Canada is bigger in area than our neighbour to
the south and would quickly become the "New West".
Right now, El Moron is frightening, if not terrorising the world with his
war-mongering evil-doer ways. As long as the UN maintains a strong
presence in Iraq, there is no threat of war with Iraq's neighbours. UN
peacekeepers have stayed for decades in other parts of the world. Why not
Iraq? How should the UN pay for the peacekeepers? By selling enough Iraqi
oil. If the UN force costs in the billions, so be it. Iraq will pay and
the peace will be maintained. There is no need for time limits on Iraq.
The most they have is a few box cars of biological and chemical agents
buried in the desert. Agents the use of which would be suicidal as long as
UN has a presence.
El Moron is a terrorist thug who threatens to destabilize the Gulf region
and the world with a war which has UNKNOWN CONSEQUENCES (a point raised by
Madelaine Albright recently on CNN). Keeping the UN peacekeepers there in
place of El Moron's blood-lusting alternative has KNOWN CONSEQUENCES, ie
the consequences of PEACE.
Yes we need a new resolution...a resolution for peace.
