The USA is at war with any country who doesn't bow to it's Imperialistic desires (oil at present time) but they cloak it in spreading "democracy" and "liberation" or "WMD" or "terror" or "fighting communism" or....
This is the war in Orwell's '1984' that exists to distract us from expecting freedom. When you hear some ass hat predict how long this war on terrorism will be do you wonder as I just what that end is? Will we have killed everyone who dislikes us? Will we bomb our way to peace? There is no conceivable imaginable end to this "War" because it is the equivalent of shadow boxing. We are a war based economy. The enemy is us and the engine is our geographic, emotional and intellectual distance from the rest of the world. I don't know what the future holds but this corporate wet dream I live in is not my idea of living large.
