It's has been over a year now since Fidel Castro's condemnation of the energy policies of the Bush administration and the European powers that be. According to the theories of the day there is a real need to rid the world of its dependency on crude oil and more importantly despot leaders in the Middle East and some parts of South America and Africa. The goal is certainly something that should be applauded but the modern method of choice to achieve it is bordering on inept.

Certainly I am not so prescient as to be the only person in this world to know the exact solution to the war in Iraq. I think it's been clear for some time and if troop surge policies continue to be the path taken by the United States government, in particular the Bush administration, it will become the only solution that can lead to a victory in Iraq (in terms of American interest). The quick answer is a Secular Sunni dictator supported by the United States government, and I will explain why.

If nuclear technology is clean and desired in the United States, Canada and other industrialized nations there should be an understanding that Western cultures are not the only nations that have a responsibility to the environment and to their local populations, national security and economic growth. The entire debate over Iran’s nuclear energy program has been framed by the leaders of the world as solely a nuclear weapons debate and very little has been made of the constant claims and seeming validations of independent bodies that Iran’s nuclear program is for energy use. Without the filter of the mainstream media it isn’t hard to argue that Iran is being a responsible citizen of the world by trying to use a cleaner source of energy. I will write, for the most part, with the assumption for now that Iran is indeed trying to develop nuclear plants to supply their energy needs.

Support for the Canadian mission in Afghanistan has been diminishing at a rapid pace because of the recent increase in Canadian casualties. If the casualties are the sole reason for Canadians dismay of the mission it more than likely shows a lack of understanding by Canadians in terms of the government that Canadian blood and money is supporting. Much was made of the Afghan's decision to put a newly born again Christian to death because of his recent conversion from Islam which should have been reason enough by our government to reconsider its support for the Afghan government but it only (for some reason) strengthen their resolve to keep Karzai in power.

Israel has managed to take its war against the Lebanese people to a new level. The attack on Qana was deplorable and inexcusable and even under these circumstances the United States of America (The supposed impartial broker for peace) still refuses to condemn Israel's actions even at the most basic level. Israel's supporters throughout the world continue to use the defense that Hizb'Allah is targeting civilians and to the contrary the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) does not purposely and methodically target civilians. Any government or any world leader who accepts this claim at face value after nearly 20 days of bombing, hundreds of Lebanese civilian death and hundreds of thousands of displaced Lebanese citizens has no right leading a people, period.

Israel is showing the entire world why its critics are absolutely right in suggesting that they have become a destabilizing force in the region. I will be clear that I don’t agree with Hezbollah’s actions although I completely understand their logic. That being said that does not give Israel the right to bomb all of Lebanon mercilessly.

As the world begins its efforts to come up with a statement at the United Nations their hypocrisy continues to be quite evident. The new resolve of the world to condemn North Korea was brought about by the recent missile tests of the DPRK yet Israel has, for the past 11 or 12 days, been in the process of testing missiles on Palestinian people and infrastructure and not even the weakest of statements condemning their actions has come out from the collective world body.

Israel, your reaction to having one of your soldiers captured would be condemned even in Hades. The invasion and bombing of Gaza and your decision to terrorize the Palestinian people cannot, under any circumstance be condoned by any just man. If one Israeli soldier is worth the destabilizing of the world, the Middle East in particular, then please explain to the world what type of reaction you expect from Hamas, Islamic Jihad and other resistance organizations for the lives of 9800 Palestinian prisoners currently being held by the Israeli government.

Western nations fight wars because other countries don't agree with the freehand of capitalism. How ironic is it to hear the members of the nations who most adamantly promote capitalism complaining when capitalism is at work.
