My Response to Anti-War.com on Iraq Withdrawal

------------------------------------------------------------

Stop thinking in black and white, or all or nothing terms. We are addicted to Iraqi oil and the Middle East is most likely addicted to revenue from it. We need to address our addiction immediately, but we've needed to do for the last 30 years. Staying in Iraq won't solve the problem. This is only one of many "resource wars" we will be involved in if we don't change our ways. Maybe the consequence of not having changed our ways a long time ago is that we will pay a big price. Imagine that. The energy "crisis" is a huge issue that war will never be an answer to - and Will, you are letting the fear bug get you. Creating more terrorists isn't going to stop terrorism.

We need regime change at home. We need a media that works and we need an informed public. We could work miracles if we were forced to.

Changing ways

I have come to think of gasoline as blood. How much blood did it cost for me to drive here? The result: Lots of days the car sits in the garage. But the waste goes on in hundreds of other ways while GWB insists we will not change our life styles. Western standards of living are unsustainable.
