But since you asked:
How Bush and his thugs succeeded in deflecting Americas anger from bin Laden to Saddam Hussein is one of the great public relations swindles of history.
But they swung it.....
A recent poll shows that one in two Americans now believe Saddam was responsible for the attack on the World Trade Centre.
But the American public is not merely being misled......
It is being browbeaten and kept in a perpetual state of fear/ignorance.
This carefully orchestrated sham should carry Bush and his fellow thugs/criminals nicely into the next election.
Those who are not with Spurious George are against him.
Worse, they are with the enemy according to
"conservatives."
Which is odd, because I’m dead against Bush, but I would love to see Saddam’s downfall — just not on Bush’s terms and not by his methods....and not under the banner of such outrageous hypocrisy.
The religious mindset that will send American troops into battle is perhaps the most sickening aspect of the coming war.
Bush has an arm-lock on God.....and his imaginary friend has very particular political opinions.
His Imaginary Cloud Being has appointed America to save the world in any way that suits America.
ICB appointed Israel to be the nexus of America’s Middle Eastern policy, and anyone who wants to mess with that idea is:
(a) anti-Semitic
(b) anti-American
(c) with the enemy
(d) a terrorist
ICB also has pretty scary connections.
In America, where all men are equal in His sight, if not in one another’s, the Bush family numbers one President, one ex-President, one ex-head of the CIA, the Governor of Florida and the ex-Governor of Texas.
Care for a few pointers?
George W. Bush, 1978-84: senior executive, Arbusto Energy/Bush Exploration, an oil company: 1986-90: senior executive of the Harken oil company.
Dick Cheney, 1995-2000: chief executive of the Halliburton oil company.
Condoleezza Rice, 1991-2000: senior executive with the Chevron oil company, which named an oil tanker after her.
But none of these *irrelevant* associations affects the integrity of the Invisible Cloud Beings work.
In 1993, while ex-President George Bush was visiting the ever-democratic Kingdom of Kuwait to receive thanks for liberating them, somebody tried to kill him.
The CIA believes that “somebody” was Saddam.
Hence Bush Jr’s cry: “That man tried to kill my Daddy.”
But it’s still not personal, this war.
It’s still necessary.
It’s still God’s work.
It’s still about bringing democracy/freedom to the oppressed Iraqi people.
To be a member of the team you must also believe in Absolute Good and Absolute Evil, and Spurious George, with a lot of help from his friends, family and God, is there to tell us which is which.
What l'il Georgie won’t tell us is the truth about why we’re going to war.
What is at stake is not an Axis of Evil — but oil, money and people’s lives.
Saddam’s misfortune is to sit on the second biggest oilfield in the world. Bush wants it, and who helps him get it will receive a piece of the cake. And who doesn’t, won’t.
If Saddam didn’t have the oil, he could kill or torture his citizens to his heart’s content.
Other leaders do it every day.....Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Turkey, Syria, Egypt.
Baghdad represents no clear and present danger to its neighbours, and none to the US or Britain.
Saddam’s weapons of mass destruction, if he’s still got them, will be peanuts by comparison with the stuff Israel or America could hurl at him at five minutes’ notice.
What is at stake is not an imminent military or terrorist threat, but the economic imperative of US growth.
What is at stake is America’s need to demonstrate its military power to the world..... to Europe, Russia and China, and North Korea, as well as the Middle East..... to show who rules America at home, and who is to be ruled by America abroad.
I'll go out on a limb and gamble on Iran being next on chimpys hit list......I wonder what lies or sham he will use to call for regime change in a country that elects it's leaders democratically?
