Things are settin up great.

Somebody started talking about about cutting the military budget (after all the current Nobel Peace Prize winner oversees the largest military budget in world history, oh, is also the largest arms dealer in the world as well) . . . what better than to possibly have a Iranian oriented regime take over in Egypt?  Oops . . . must stay the course, must prosecute perpetual war and an ongoing massive military presence in the Middle East. 

Then the real topper . . . Big Sis and her nearly million strong legion in Homeland Security get handed a the gift of Wiki-Leaks (a leak supported by the U.S.) talking about Al-CIAda using dirty bombs and biological weapons.

Awesome.

Yes, there are good leaks and bad leaks if  you're the government.   When you have "leaks" of the size of the Wiki-Leaks it is quite possible that there are "good" leaks . . . at the end of the day, what has the Wiki-Leaks done to the US government besides tell all of us who have been paying attention what we already knew?

But what better to ensure that you can go out and rally the lemmings and convince them that we need perpetual war, a perpetual massive military prescence (in the middle east) and massive military and DHS budget and infrastructure than to have more countries fall to the current set of neccessary bad guys and then claim the bad guys are "exporting" their ill will all across the world.
