Post by Spread Eaglethe head, repeating after each blow, "It's the war on terror, stupid."
Repeat the three-blow sequence daily or more often, as needed. A new
mental outlook will emerge after one or more administration of
prescribed doses.
"It's a war on terror, stupid"--That's the propaganda, repeted left
and right by mindless 'I can do no wrong' losers. To THESE people,
being a "good" guy doesn't involve doing good deeds indeed, but
rather, staying on the "good side." Saddam was Ronald Reagan's good
guys to gas the Iranians. That's why Donald Rumsfeld GAVE him the
Weapons of Mass Destruction, free of charge.
You've got to admit, we wouldn't be in Iraq if not for 911. And
Georgie is milking every ounces of decency from the families of the
victims of 911. If Bush is about protecting America, he would
actually spend some money in Homeland security instead of on his
war-profiteering buddies. There is a reason why New York City firemen
refused to pose with Georgie as the first anniversity of September 11
came.
As the piece of last night's 60 Minutes says, Arafat saw himself as
the embodiment of the Palestinians. Therefore, in this view, what is
good for Arafat was equated as also good for the Palestinians.
Likewise for America.
Georgie saw himself as the embodiment of America; therefore, getting
rid of what scared Georgie personally is equated with his so-called
"war on terror."
Georgie is the alpha and omega. And the Republican bunch is the same.
Post by Spread Eaglethe invasion of Iraq and toppling of Saddam (hereinafter referred to
as "invasion and toppling") was **never** on account of him having or
not having so-called "WMDs" (actually should ought properly referred
to as "NBC" or "NBC devices" - the failure of which is your first clue
that the addressant or interlocutor using such term is possessed with
achieving a **political** objective and/or axe to grind, and NOT with
If it weren't about Weapons of Mass Destruction, you've got to admit
that Georgie was spewing nonsense, again and again, about "mushroom
clouds" ending up in Manhattan. Why Manhattan, no allusion to do with
911? Why mentioning the nuclear threat? No other weapons can conjure
up the image of Armaggeddon perhaps?
Post by Spread Eaglea mere genuine concern); and, that the invasion and toppling WAS
NEVER on account of any supposed DIRECT connection between al Qaeda
and Saddam or bin Laden and Saddam, or 9/11 and Saddam (and none were
ever actually and expressly alleged);
Oh, I get it, after the war with Iraq has begun, Georgie changed his
soundbite to Al Qaeda-like, 911-like, Saddam-like, whatever-like.
Maybe somebody got to remind him that his behavior and tactics
Just ask the American people in the poll, if Georgie
conveyed/implied/or wink-winked the image that Saddam was behind
September 11? Why would 7 out of 10 Americans "think" that Saddam was
behind September 11, when there is no evidence to say that. All due
to the subliminal advertising of this administration?
Post by Spread Eagleyou will also realize that it
doesn't hurt, and fact helps, if other people around the world believe
that so-called "WMDs" and 9/11 connections are the motivation, because
it camoflagues the **real** reasons for the invasion and toppling, and
and study maps of the region, and you'll be struck by the enormous
strategic location of Iraq, with Iran on one side, Syria on another
side, Kuwait on another side, Turkey to the north, which enormous
strategic location, it will dawn on you, comprises the **real**
reasons for the invasion and toppling; and then, yes, there's oil,
Assuming that we will stick there long enough to create a base and
that the Iraqi people will worship our puppet government. That's the
neo-con's standard wishful thinking. BTW, Wolfowitz says that we can
get the oil running pretty soon and that its revenue will finance this
project. How is this finanical prediction panning out? There should
be a law to state that those neo-cons who stand to profit the most
from this venture should shell out a dime from their own pockets, for
every dollar over-run according to their own projection. And isn't it
Bush who said that there would be a million jobs creation after his
first tax-cut???
Those who wrecked the economy of our posterity should have decency
enough to commit harikari if reality fell short of HALF their
projection. Didn't the Japanese CEOs jumped off buildings during the
80s when they failed their companies? That's integrity. That's
taking responsiblity.
Post by Spread Eagleand it will all click into place. Iraq is the **perfect** platform
from which to wrench the middle east out of it 7th century mentality,
from which terrorism incubates and springs, and bring it and its
economy into the post-industial age. No small task, but it has to
start somewhere, and, as stated, Iraq is the perfect place to start.

This thread was about Jessica Lynch and how Bush treated her in the
aftermath. Sending those boys and girls into Iraq to exact Bush's
personal vendetta is like
someone sending a troop of boy and girl scouts into an expedition. If
anyone got hurt, it is all the troop leader's fault for he is
responsible for everyone's safety. If someone from the girlscout got
raped as a result, we all wish that the perpetuators be brought to
justice. And how did the Pentagon and Bush cronies administer this
justice after "Mission Accomplished."
The Jessica story is a few months old and the US military has been in
control of Iraq since March, so, how is the investigation about which
Iraqi Battalion did this dastardly act going?

Have you forgotten that invading Iraq has nothing to do with the
culprits who perpetuated 9/11?

"We've had no evidence that Saddam Hussein was involved with September
11." --Georgie, 9-17-2003, 181 days after the Invasion of Iraq began
"Yes, I think, first of all, remember I just said we've been there for
**90** days since the cessation of major military operations. Now, I
know in our world where news comes and goes and there's this kind of
instant--instant news... But it's going to take time for us to gather
the evidence and analyze the mounds of evidence, literally, the miles
of documents that we have uncovered."
-- Georgie, 7-30-2003 Rose Garden Press Conference, in response to the
question asking whether Georgie had "some definitive" links for the
Saddam-Al Qaeda claims before the Iraqi Invasion (apparantly, Georgie
was still on his fishing expedition 90 days after the invasion)
"Throughout the 20th century, small groups of men seized control of
great nations built armies and arsenals and set out to dominate the
weak and intimidate the world. In each case, their ambitions of
cruelty and murder had no limit. In each case, the ambitions of
Hitlerism, militarism, and communism were defeated by the will of free
peoples.."
-- Georgie, SOTU 2003

Hahaha..."--Georgie
