Editor,
If anyone has ever been addicted to drugs, or knows someone who has been, then both parties know the addict develops a skill for lying.
This deceit is used in many ways so that the junkies can get their fix. Now, many people have acknowledged that America is addicted to oil and that is the true reason why President Obama has supported military action in Libya. He has just become another enabler for America to continue on her downward spiral of oil addiction.
And the saddest part is that we have been told that America is involved in Libya to defend “human rights.” If America is so concerned about “human rights,” then why not start bombing the Syrian government today?
No, the truth is that Libya is loaded with that sweet, black liquid that America just cannot quit.
Let us be brutally honest with ourselves for a change and understand this tragic comedy for what it really is.
