Why Syria

People are up in arms with the proposed USA bombing of Syria for many different reasons.

The USA wants to bomb Syria, however, to continue the unstable curtain it has drawn around its oil interests.

Look at a map of West Asia and East Africa.  Draw a line from Pakistan through Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, Egypt, Sudan and Somalia.

All of these countries are suffering from the deliberate imposition of instability by the USA.

Why?

Because the oil from the Arabian Gulf cannot flow gently through unstable countries.

Instead, the only way out is through the Gulf - protected by the military of the USA.

The oil cannot go to Russia.  It cannot go to China easily.  It cannot go to India or Europe.  It is only going to the USA.

This is your contemporary Middle East course 101.

There is no terrorism, no crazy people just being crazy Middle Easterners, but there are deliberate movements to destabilize some countries and keep others secure.

How democratic is Kuwait, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, UAE, Oman, Bahrain and Qatar?  Zero percent. 

But on the news we hear how horrible Saddam was, Assad, Palestine, Morsi, Somalia, Taliban - all people created by the West to maintain that curtain. 

It's fine to use your strength to protect yourself, I suppose, but why can't it also come with a demand on your friends?

If we are to keep the curtain and the oil flowing, let's also impose democratic principles on the GCC, demand more from them than just that they open up Chili's restaurants and buy Ford cars.
