POST SCRIPTS

Arab's need more reasons to hate us; especially the radicals, they just don't hate us enough. I got an idea, lets make up some really horrible conspiracy stuff involving America, the CIA and big oil, lets put it into a movie and make a fortune by spreading hate amongst our global enemies that will flock to see it! Great idea, huh? (Yes, I am saying this tongue in cheek) Unfortunately, it's already been done. Well, actually its been a lot over the years, but not quite as well as the latest "hate America cause we're greedy and evil" movie called Syriana. It stars one of my favorite liberals, George Clooney, an aging CIA agent.

Clooney is cast as a dupe of this mega-rich U.S. Oil Corporation with tentacles that spread around the world. A big, fat, rich oil company based in the heart of Texas, presumably next to Bush's ranch, what could be more hateable than that? lol Anyway, this evil oil company is so powerful it is above the law and pulls the strings of the American government. This plot plays perfectly to all the global conspiracy nuts, which must include Islamic jihadist.

There's this great line at a secret meeting where the board is joking about the U.S. law forbidding bribery and one of them quips with a chuckle, "This is the awl business we're talkin about isn't it?" The message comes through loud and clear, corruption and "awl" is just business as usual.

In this plot, the "awl" company is after the oily assets of a small Arab kingdom, soon to be exploited by Imperial America. The corporation is prepared to do anything to get the oil, including murdering it's next-in-line to the throne. This person is portrayed as a warm, caring, intelligent and visionary Arab Prince of unusually high ethics. His death will keep fat greedy Americans driving gas guzzling road hogs a few years longer. Well that part is not directly said, but it sure is implied.

Who better to serve the needs of this evil corporation, but our own cold blooded CIA and its running dog lackey's, like Special Agent Bob Barnes, played by George Clooney. Clooney had to gain 35 pounds to play the role of an American, we're all fat you know.

And that my friends is how Hollywood helps build the American image. They have successfully instilled yet more hate in those already predisposed to hate us while furthering the fanatic's belief that this work of fiction represents the true America.

It is a convincing and compelling work, heck, after watching it I had the urge to strap on a suicide vest and run screaming into the theater's projection room.
