A Rocket in their Pocket

Iran recently launched a satellite they claim to be scientific into outer space (as it were), which, of course, has the world up in arms.

I heard on the news yesterday that the Obama administration is worried that Iran will use their rocket technology to attach a nuclear weapon to and aim it at Israel. They also mentioned how Iran sponsors terrorists.

However, the U.S., who sponsors Israel, does not consider Israel's actions in Lebanon and Gaza as terrorist. Those actions were defensive, and thus, the U.S. had to ship mass amounts of child mutilating munitions known as cluster bombs to Israel to use against Lebanon a couple of years ago and weapons to use to kill Palestinians and destroy infrastructure in Gaza. Those acts of terror are "state sanctioned" mass murder and thus don't fall under the U.S. official meaning of terror which is anyone who resists the violence and forces of the more powerful nations of the U.S. and Israel. Thus, folks like "Earth First" are considered terrorist organizations but folks who make peanut butter tainted with salmonella and knowingly sell it to the public and kill 8 people and wound 500 others are just considered good business folks.

Besides, let's be honest. The U.S. wants to keep other nations down in order to more effectively put to use their weapons and military should any nation "freely choose" not to live under the U.S. thumb. For example, a nation that chooses to use their oil resources to help their people instead of U.S. corporations could face mass destruction like that of Iraq. If said countries have, say, proportional or even close to proportional defenses against U.S. or U.S. lead aggression, that would be unacceptable. You see, it is much easier to slaughter masses using overwhelming force when they are unarmed or at the very least, lesser armed.

Thankfully, the economy is about to collapse and such options as mass murder like that of the U.S. against the world and Israel agains Gaza, Lebanon, Egypt, etc., might not be as easily feasible as it used to be.
