King Abdulla bin Abdul Aziz Al Saud of Saudi Arabia...our supposed friend.

And dude seriously who in the middle east hasn't car bombed someone....honestly we're dealing with a totally different culture which is just a tad more onry than our own and the wrong people had the right ideas about that region. Rumsfeld didn't think big enough or long enough about this war....but we broke it we own it


And since no pansies over here want us to have our OWN oil which we COULD produce providing people allow drilling and refining then we wouldn't have to deal with such people. But things being as they are we have to play the hand we're delt and honestly it's no thanks to fucking England that we are where we are right now.....so don't blame us, blame you guys, you and fucking France always start some shit and wait for us to fix it

There are lots of Iraqi political groups that haven't car-bombed somebody. Almost all of them in fact. But the ones with the militias are the former Iranian terrorist groups so Bush now has to pal up with terrorists to get what he wants.

What are the right ideas about that region ?

The US hit peak oil production in 1970. There isn't a single conventional oil deposit in America that could be tapped fast enough to cover growth in US oil demand between now and when you got the deposit online, including ANWR etc. Meanwhile up to two thirds of the world's oil lies under five countries in the Middle East, the second-most oil deposits being under Iraq.


France wisely told you not to invade Iraq, it's not their fault you're there. George Bush's cabin boy Tony Blair has a lot to answer for, but epic dumbass George W Bush made it public at the time he'd go it alone if he had to.

Define "start", "fix".

1. The UK made a magnificent job of it, the French playing the part currently played by the UK. America fucked it up.

2. The UN created the state of Israel.

3. The US didn't need any help to get involved in Iran and overthrow the Shah.

You got he rep and you have the jackass part covered quite magnificantly yourselves.

like a true brit, deny any responsibility for what has gone on in the middle east....you're being taken over anyway slowly but surely you cease being England and now you're England-istan.

Have fun with all that, I hear Sharia law is some tough shit

Britain definitely set things up roughly the way they are today in the region but did a fantastic job of it. We had the whole region including Iran under control. The US has screwed it up.

Britain is 2% Muslim. It'll be some decades before those guys crack 10% of the population, and they assimilate eventually too, so nothing to worry about.
