right. but chip says that they clerical fascists hell bent on taking over the world. this policy would mean their inevitable rise to power once we stop protecting monarchies and other nasty regimes, no? and, accordingly, yoshie says that the left must rise up against fascist states. so... why pursue a policy sure to yield a fascist state with control of a major amount of oil and, thus, a major amount of power in the world and, clearly, an ability to take over the world or at least try, if they so choose.
now, i don't necess. buy this scenario, but if you take chip and yoshie seriously, then i'm left scratching my head as to how such policies are going to foster, in the short-term, governments that won't be taken over by fascistic forces who are really just interested in their own kind of capitalist regime.
