01 Aug 05 - 04:48 PM (#1532863) Subject: RE: BS: The weasel has done it! From: akenaton According to British pundits , Bolton could be seen as a leader of a "modernisation" faction in the UN. In much the same way as Blair has sought to divide old and new Europe in the EEC. One of the oldest and most effective tactics ...Divide and rule. If Bolton is successful, expect to see an emasculated UN forced to do the bidding of the powerful Western countries allied to China and Russia. The reason?...to safeguard energy supplies. Looks like in the future, if we want another countries oil, we just walk in an take it....Authorised by the United Nations of course. |

01 Aug 05 - 05:53 PM (#1532898) Subject: RE: BS: The weasel has done it! From: CarolC It could be a good thing. If enough other countries get tired of the US being the only major superpower, they might join together and form a superpower of their own to counterbalance the lopsided power equation that now exists between the US and the rest of the world. Bolton just might be the man who can scare them badly enough into doing it. |

But seriously, why is it that evry time Bush has an opportunity to do the correct thing, he does the opposite... Where's this guy who said he is a "uniter"?
