"Prometheus swept down from the heavens bringing the gift of fire. Wrong move." Robert Ludlum

I haven't made a post in 6 days. This thing has been in my draft file for maybe 5 days. I've been reluctant to delete the file, but also reluctant to post it. So, I finally decided to post.

I just thought of something that scares the shit out of me. I've been trying to think of a reason why Bush invaded Iraq. I heard recently that he had planned the invasion before the UN nuclear inspections were done. So, why?

Here's what I got: what if Bush is actually doing his job? What if there's a reason why we failed to capture bin Laden by now? What if the "War on Terror" is just a front for something bigger?

I'm talking about an upcoming war between the US and China. Here's my logic:

1. China needs more oil to grow faster (a country can't develop quickly without a ready supply of oil). We might be in the Middle East for oil so China doesn't get most of it . That would be the reason why we haven't caught bin Laden yet: we need a cover reason for being there.
2. We're now an ally of India. India is the closest country to China that would probably help us. Russia, if anything, will be on China's side, so India is the next country that shows promise. We're helping them. Did you know we made a trade agreement trading nuclear technology for mangoes? Yeah, the fruit. 
3. If there is a war with China, wouldn't it be a good idea to deploy troops in an area close by the enemy?(Check a map and see)

So I know the how, but not the why...

Meh, maybe it's just a crazy, but scary, thought.

Now, for all I know, it's just a thought. I mean, I'm 16. What does a teenager know about the world anyway? Comment if you want, call me crazy if you want, call me a liberal if you want. I don't care. I've decided to post this because this is America, where I can say what I want. I've decided to post this because this is a blog, where I can speak my mind (hence, MINDsay).

I hope I'm wrong though. I hope I'm as far from the truth as possible. I really do hope that Bush doesn't actually know what he's doing.
