If the people in Iraq looked like people from Sweden there would be no war

[doubles]

This war is all about colonialism, oil, race and religion!

1. No, the media would start to demonize Swedes...

and in no time, the moron population would be bloodthirsty for that Swedish crude..

[NewJeffCT]

2. Who knows?

I remember I had a professor tell me the only reason we didn't conquer Mexico was good old fashioned racism - didn't want any more brown skinned folk in our country.

3. Rove hates Swedes

If only, he would probably say. This was reported perhaps humourously? in another thread, because Rove felt part of a downtrodden Norwegian heritage.

If you said overwight white people in pickups or limos it would have made more sense.

9. Rove is of Norwegian descent?

What happened to him? Is he an example of what happens even to Norwegians when they spend a few generations in Texas?

He's sure no Walter Mondale. I'm from the upper Midwest and I don't recall running into too many Norwegian-American right-wing looney tunes.

[Caution]

4. If Sweden had the oil in iraq there would be war in sweden

this is about money. period.

[doubles]

7. I disagree, the American people would never stand for Caucasian

blonde haired people being treated this way.

8. I do not think greed has a color, sorry

and life goes on.

It's about the oil.

All else is enabling subterfuge.
