Guerrilla wars sometimes succeed. Guerrillas are very ruthless. They murder without mercy teachers, officials, police, doctors or anyone who opposes them; anyone who represents the 'established order'. I'm sure we could stop the Iraq insurgency. But I expect it requires the same kind of ruthlessness practiced by insurgents. We don't have that kind of will. For example, Saddam basically wiped out Kurdish and Shiite towns to stop insurgencies. We could easily wipe out Baghdad and the surviving insurgents would reconsider their efforts. But we will not. Its the same for pollution, tell them you > know exactly how and how much poison people are made to inhale why don't > they do something about it?

The pharmacy industry and energy > companies now can get away with murdering people because they promote jobs > for those in power Yet how many Americans would believe all this? I don't see any industry murdering people. I always had the impression that pharmacy industry seeks to saves lives and energy companies provide energy. What would we do without either?
