The Art of War - Sun Tzu

broken link... fix please .. i hav been looking everywhere

Everyone one of you guys had to pull the politics card! Really? Just Shut the F@#K UP!!!!! Thank you!

And for Iraq oil issue, dollar is only currency that oil can be sold for. Strength of dollar and America's economy is determent by the state of oil business, and this is main objective in Iraq. Controlling the oil production.
Some may consider it inhuman that suffering of peoples of Afghanistan and Iraq is brought upon them only for financial reasons, that America is torturing these nations just for money, but please bare in mind that, from America's perspective, this is necessary to prevent war's in a future. If you are too strong opponent will not attack. If you are rich you can buy of opponent from attacking you. And this is all done without involving America's people in it, not counting millitary, of course.

If you wonder why does America do this, why they force so many to suffer over oil and drugs, answer is simple: Drug money is not controlled by state and CIA can use it as it wishes without explaining it to Senate. This gives great advantage to America's spies in freedom of action to strengthen America's grip on it's possible opponents. Corruption in opponents ranks is the key to victory without fighting.

America has learned a lot from past wars. Now they only fight if there is no other solution. They use mostly political and financial pressure on the opponent. However, they are stuck in Afghanistan and Iraq. Here they fight, not for land or political goals (they don't care about democracy in those countries) but for oil and heroin. Afghanistan was world leader in heroin production before Taliban regime but under Taliban regime heroin production halted to only 5% of what it was before. Now, after America's occupation Afghans are producing more heroin than ever. Also there is a shift in westerners "drug of choice" to heroin. Lot's of money is being made from heroin traffic coming from America's occupied country.
Iraq has biggest oil deposits in the world. Especially since America enforced embargo on oil export since first "Golf war". And now, they are controlling it.

America this, America that.

Heres an Idea? Why would America want to declare war on another superpower or in fact any nation with nuclear capabilities. Hmm, I fuckin wonder? Does it have to do with a big fuckin mushroom cloud, yeah.

If you are to compare Mao's atrocities against human life to Lyndon B Johnson. Theres an amazing contrast on the value of human life between the two of them.

You seems to concentrate on minuscule details, when you should be looking for an intellectual thesis and movement to save America's republic; move forward into the future and take action, create new political philosophy instead of "claims", turn that into action. Im sure we can go into every countries history and find that it was soaked in bloody ruin.

heres a more constructive way of putting America. "Just like many ideas of social liberation in the past, America's republic has shifted into an Oligarchy form of Government and that is seated by the Elite in Society"

woops,i meant this: name one country after WWII that was strong and that U.S. attacked it. Korea was weak,but became strong thanks to the Chinese after the American troops ammassed there.

and i have to say,i find it offensive when that american professor says that they only lost because the enemy conquered the minds of their home (U.S.A.) ... this is proposterous, the war was doomed because it was badly planned,it had no motivation for the soldiers whatsoever, they lied to the american people for private interests. And lest we forget, America only wages war on WEAK states. (name one country after WW2).Looks cowardly,doesnt it? Vietnam was not that weak.

"U.S. never lost any engagement in Vietnam" ...oh god,so many contradictory and false statements ... ok,i'll be quiet now

tv is so dumb now days the book is better
