As an answer to: Sorry you didn't understand Chimp written by Jim at 26 Jul 2003 01:26:23:

I'm not twisting anything, I'm merely quoting you. Here's a quote, it's something you've said, it's not altered in any way: "Even if the war were just over oil, how would you suggest the that world survive at the moment if that precious supply were to be lost?"

You're saying that US has a right to decide what other countries do with their natural ressources. And go to war with them if their decisions don't please them.

Now, if any of the regulars (except Jim) here interpret this sentence in any other way, please let me know. I think the coming silence will speak for itself.

Thanks.

>You are now stooping down to AJ's level in twisting meanings of what is written. I believe the people of Iraq and Afghanistan are much more valuable than any commodity. They and their freedom is worth fighting for even when they don't believe as we do, and even when some of them hate us for being so successful and powerful. That is what I said and meant. Secondary to that, yes, oil is important, and it's important also for Norwegians. Think not? See how you power up all those Volvos and Mercedes without it.
>Chimp, regardless of what you may believe, you and your countrymen simply do not have the resources to understand fully what the most powerful nations in the world do about what is going on, and I don't either. However I am smart enough to know that what is happening there has absolutely nothing to do with this forum.
