Bush's tangled arms deal
By selling weapons to "moderate" states, Bush would again be playing puppet master and jerking around the Middle East with disastrous consequences.
By Gary Kamiya [2007-08-14]

  • Saudi Arabia is moderate?

    They behead homosexuals. Women can't drive. Music is illegal. No elections. The only thing that makes them moderate is they sell us a lot of cheap oil. Iran, which is a relatively well-functioning democracy (with music and women-powered cars!) is 'extremist' because they aren't pro-American. Bush just wants the middle east, including Israel, on a permanent war-footing. Peace is bad for business.
