Chuck1318 writes "The US is halting its national nuclear fusion energy project, FIRE, and pinning its hopes on the internation fusion research program ITER. However, ITER is stalled over a dispute on where to locate the facility. The dream of fusion power is getting no closer..."

    well remember when Japan bombed pearl harbor in 1941?

    It was clearly Mexico's fault and we should have declared war on THEM. Yeah, so they didn't fund the Japanese or give them training or intelligence or even really talk to them but that doesn't matter it was obviously their fault anyway. But instead! That liberal pissant Roosevelt decided to attack the country that ACTUALLY attacked us!? can you believe such a thing!?

    Now the grand parent poster is MUCH more in line with current, and I have to say, much more advanced thinking and rationalization. That is, since the World Trade Center attacks were carried out by mostly Saudi Citizens, who were financed and supported by Al Qaeda, who get the majority of their funding from Yemeni, Iranian, and Saudi origins, who had set up rather nice camps in Afghanistan as a base of operations, it is very obvious and if you don't see this you are an ABSOLUTE MORON, that we MUST attack Iraq!

    In addition! Iraq has Weapons of Mass Destruction. No? Oh Wait.
    Iraq has Weapons of Mass Destruction Programs! Not that either? Hmmm
    Iraq has Weapons of Mass Destruction Related Programs! Still no dice?
    Oh, Iraq has Interest in Future Weapons of Mass Destruction Related Programs! Yeah thats it!

    You still don't understand? It has NOTHING to do with oil! Its all because of Iraq's (non)involvement in 9/11 and their hideous Interest in Future Weapons of Mass Destruction Related Programs. You know they can deploy them(I don't care if they don't exist! they can still deploy them!) in 45 minutes right? Doesn't that scare you? Doesn't that SCARE you? It has nothing to do with oil. Be afraid. They have a jet fighter with a range of 450 miles. That can reach the United States! The United States is further than 450 miles from Iraq? Puh-lease! They are SNEAKY! Did you ever think they could land at Heathrow and refuel? Hmmm? HMMM?

    You know he gassed his own people right? I don't care if Iraq and Iran were engaged in tit-for-tat biological attacks against each other for several months prior. I don't care if we actually helped him build the stuff. We thought he was going to make cupcakes out of it! Egg on our face for that one! I told you they were SNEAKY! It has nothing to do with oil.

    I for one am glad we are protected each day and night by Wolfowitz and Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney. I for one am glad that our president is a puppet for their interests. I for one am especially glad we have a good upstanding citizen like Bill O'Reilly to explain this all to us because this advanced thinking is beyond most of us and he makes it easy to understand!
