Rumsfeld on ``The Long War'':

The United States is engaged in what could be a generational conflict akin to the Cold War, the kind of struggle that might last decades as allies work to root out terrorists across the globe and battle extremists who want to rule the world.

So ruling the world is bad unless they're the ones doing it. And the US ruling class & corporate media partners are upset when the Palestinians vote in their War Party!

In related news, the administration has tabled requests totalling $120 billion for its wars. It's good to know the Pentagon system of war-based corporate finance and theft will have a permanent organizing principle.
