Bush and Blair are both getting off powertripping and having the world watching them rather than being good leaders for their countries and they're pissing arabs off and this is gonna cause trouble forever internationally and at the same time US and UK are spending too much on war and shits falling apart domestically

Ahhh, utilitarianism leads to bizarre results sometimes though I think you make a good point. How many people die of heart attacks as the result of fat-rich diets? Should we ban McDonald's though?
Poor Arabs. In 30 years the US has gone from having hardly any relations at all in the region to being a major military supplier of Egypt, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia. Next up is UAE. Iraq will likely follow. What is the US doing RIGHT that has caused this shift?
