More on Turkey (not the thanksgiving kind) and the like.

I just found list of UNSC Resolutions that are currently being violated by countries other than Iraq (via Metafilter). You'll note a strong Turkish presence. Also highly featured is Israel. And Hey, India/Pakistan get a look in for - guess what - those good old "weapons of mass destruction". Now can we stop pretending that this business with Iraq isn't about oil and local influence in the Middle East?

No, no, no. Those were HW's reasons. W just needs a scapegoat that won't run away like Osama.

I wonder if our buddyship with Israel won't go sour in the future. After all, Iraq used to be our buddy.
