- WASHINGTON -- The top US
official in Iraq says he believes Saddam Hussein is still alive and remains
in the war-battered nation, but is not orchestrating daily attacks on American
troops.
-
- US administrator Paul Bremer said that Americans should
prepare for a lengthy stay in Iraq.
-
- "It's clear that given the size of the task, we
are going to be there for a while," he said. "I don't know how
many years."
-
- Two American soldiers were killed and one was injured
in an ambush Sunday in northern Iraq, according to the US military.
-
- That followed the death Saturday of an American soldier
who was shot while guarding a bank in west Baghdad.
-
- The deaths brought to 151 the number of US soldiers killed
in action since the March 20 start of the war, four more than the total
killed in the 1991 Gulf War.
-
- Bremer said there's no evidence of any central control
in the attacks.
-
- "What we're seeing is highly professional but very
small, sort of squad-level attacks, five or six people at a time attacking
us," he said.
-
- But getting the deposed Iraqi dictator would help the
situation.
-
- "The sooner we can either kill him or capture him,
the better, because the fact that his fate is unknown certainly gives his
supporters the chance to go around and try to rally support for him,"
said Bremer.
-
- In time, Bremer said of Saddam, "we'll get him."

- The onerous and unbalanced 'We'll Get Him' statement
is at once ironic and chilling. It's ironic because 50 indistinct years
of an unaccountable shadow government has had every hand in the creation
of these *monsters* to begin with... so we have always -had- them. We
tool them. We nurture them. We reward them. These *monsters* are agents,
largely (...but who can know!), of -American- manufacture, verily, and
they have utility to a non-elected government -bereft- of that accountability...
who would make =use= of this kind of egregious tool, on or off American
soil! That's a sad truth. "Savage" Sausage and "Hannity"
Horrific KNOW this to be -abundantly- accurate...
-
- The aforementioned chilliness is facilitated by the obvious,
given the stunning -reality- of the preceding paragraph. But adding injury
to insult, another couple of sour-water ice-bags are thrown on, for good
measure, at the mention of an indeterminate number of -years- not *specified*
in the canted bravado of the blustering oath!
-
- 'We'll Get Him'!
-
- "...Could take years..." ...The *official*
talking-heads pontificate with their canted and elitist wattles all a-flutter,
"...True Americans need to accept that this is going to take a long
time...," and, "...We're in for the -long- haul..."! The
reasons for -this- writer's worried chilliness, then, are produced in the
fearful actualization that there -must- come a time in a protracted prosecution
of this *war*... when even reasonable criticism of the process is proclaimed
as -treason- against the Nation that practices it, and rational dissent
is re-defined as -sedition- against same!
-
- Will concerned expressions such as the preceding land
me in some American Gestapo Gulag eventually? I'm more than a little concerned
about it, feel threatened by unaccountable forces that have no respect
for me as an individual (...-never- had respect for me as an individual!),
and I'm tormented by -similar- concerns for my family, children, and close
friends...
-
- We've nothing to fear but fear itself? Not this time,
honored reader. Now we must fear the "architects" of our fear,
those crafty sociopathic bastards -provoking- fear for their own ends,
with devices of their own manufacture, to facilitate non-admitted agendas
they'd condone!
-
- We won't "get him", good people! We've always
-had- him! Be not fooled!
