RH Jones: More reasons not to support divestiture

From RH Jones, September 3, 2007
More reasons not to support divestiture:
1. With so many of the world’s population buying from China, according to William Forman of the Associated Press, China’s foreign exchange reserves are now the world’s largest, at $1.33 trillion! So, with China buying two-thirds of Sudan’s oil, should not the politicians also place China on the list to divest?
2. The Beacon 09/03/07 Editorial claims that: ‘Every (Iraqi) contractor in Anbar who works for the U.S. military and survives for more than a month is paying the insurgency’. One can assume then that America should divest in Iraq as well. After all, Iraq is supporting those who are killing American soldiers.
