Bedouin Darkness Spreads With Oil Money

Submitted by Bill Dienstag, Nov 29, 2007 05:25

In exchange for their oil, the United States sends about half a trillion dollars to the Middle East every year. The Arabs, who produce virtually nothing, spend much of that money here in the US. How convenient! They buy everything from Boeing Jets to pickup trucks. This arraingement has caused us to ignore the severe human rights abuses, and sexual apartheid of the Arab World. We've indulged their greivences against Israel, although they are completely without legitatmacy. We've done this for years, and September 11 is the price we paid. We will continue to pay dearly for Arab money in the future as long as we place profit ahead of Human rights.
