@ SeeNew - Even stories in the Bible tell of countries gaining power by their control over the food suply. We've all read the stories, There is nothing new under the sun.
@ brohammas - Me neither but people don't get rich by doing the right thing.
@ Liam - The world will probably suffer much in the near future. Who will be spared has as much to do with luck as anything else. But as long as people have knowledge, skills and are able to work with others they should be able to rule the next cycle.
@ RunningMom - I thought you'd retired and moved away. Welcome back.
Concerning to whom the fault of oppression belongs; "We are not all equally guilty but we are all equally responsible" - Rabbi Abraham Hescel
Concerning blaming others for the problem; "...And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?... - Matthew: 7 1-5
Concerning how to fix the problems concerning oppression; "Someone once said that the word 'motivation' should never be used in the singular. Some combination of motives always exist and it's impossible for anyone to qualify the proportion of each that is involved in any given act" - Warren Buffet (in an interview in the USA Today)

Who would've thunk "food as a primary weapon of mass destruction"?
I have never been, and am still not, comfortable with exporting military eqipment.
Our jets with someone els's logo makes me real nervous.
...makes my stomach turn. sad, just sad.
UBJ, there's some major craziness going on in the world right now. I'm back for your always insightful perspective.
As for this mess, I agree with Brohammas. Exporting military equipment just seems self-destruction. But "why?" is too simple of a question.
