Donutboy 0 Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 I guess this evil dictator, who has imprisoned and tortured his opponents, killed his country's former leader and stolen his country's oil profits is OK since they're willing to sell us oil. They must be. We're renewing ties with them!! U.S. Renews Ties With Equatorial Guinea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger Al 0 Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 Donutboy, I'm gonna have to call you out on this one. Bush doesn't want Teodoro Obiang's oil, he only wants a campaign contribution from him!!! Oil will come later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We pushed for UN sanctions to prevent him from doing so except for food for the Iraqi people. For your premise to make sense, we would have tolerated Hussein, not toppled him.

CCTAU 3,350 Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 It sends the wrong signal, because we don't think there's been any improvement in terms of governance and the human rights record," said Sarah Wykes, an oil expert at the London-based rights group Global Witness. And I am so sure her beloved UK does no business with dictators. She is a hypocrit just as many liberal usually are. Its easier to divide and conquer when possible.

Jenny AU-92 0 Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 If all Bush is after is oil, and will use an unstable or corrupt political leader as an excuse to invade a country to get such oil, why haven't we invaded Venezuela yet? And their leader is actually a SOCIALIST!! Right wing conspiracy fodder for sure!!! :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
