Compounding Interest of the US in the Middle-East : Just not an act against terror.

The activities of the US in the middle-east have changed suddenly from acting just as a watchdog to a more proactive and sensitive nation which is willing to make mistakes to make things happen. Frustration seems to have clearly crept into the Bush Administration. Frustration became evident and got sufficient impetus after the September 11 attacks on their commercial capital and their defense headquarters. But we might be getting carried away if we think that a country of such a stature is actually preparing to leave its pedestal of rationalism. It is after all has been a one man show. The tag of the US has been used efficiently enough for the good of his oil group and his defense manufacturers. US invests more in defense like never before. There has been widespread tag-lines against the US administration by the home crowd regarding recent developments in the ME region and the defense budget, leaving little for domestic expenses. All because of the righteousness of one, Mr Bush. Who else?! Feeding his Carlysle group with vast oil reserves and feeding the army deployments in ME with arms and tanks, he thanks the US and the world for the support. No wonder he is in high spirits after the recent bill being passed on higher allocation of defense budget. There has been many instances where his assurances of a country's preparation to become a rogue state has been found baseless. Guess he was the only US president who was booed when he was elected for office. He talks of bringing back US troops home and then speaks of security lapses and re-deploys them. He is too clever and the World suffers in support to him. Our only hope for peace hinges on the fact that his greed will be satisfied before the world has something to save. Amen.
