Paragraph 25 of an article in NYT:

OPEC’s 13 members plan to spend $150 billion to expand their capacity by five million barrels a day by 2012. But OPEC will need to pump 60 million barrels a day by 2030, up from around 36 million barrels a day today, to meet the projected growth in demand. Analysts say that without Iran and Iraq — where nearly 30 years of wars and sanctions have crippled oil production — reaching that level will be impossible.

2. Someday, the PNACers will laugh at us...

...they'll sit in their smoke-filled war rooms--and laugh at us poor schleps.

Their plan is on their frickin Website. They want US global domination, and their
plan of attack is Iraq...then Iran...then Syria.

They aren't hiding their plans or their intentions.

For everyone who isn't too busy--buying trinkets at Walmart--your democracy is withering on the vine
and being swallowed by warmongering criminals.

3. They'll have to laugh between sessions of "enhanced interrogation"

PNACer's are cute when the water comes out of their nose when they laugh....
