- Rumsfeld, the giver of the neurotoxin Aspartame unto
the world to speed the destruction of the health of ignorant people everywhere,
has declared thou shalt not use the word "insurgents" and that
it is to be banned.
-
- And, of course, Lord Rumsfeld never used the word "insurgents"
- or did he?
-
- LET'S LOOK AT JUST A FEW EXAMPLES:

- WASHINGTON - Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld
steadfastly declined Thursday to give Congress a public estimate of the
size of the Iraqi insurgency.

- BAGHDAD, Iraq -- In his Christmas eve encounters with
U.S. military commanders and hundreds of their troops, Defense Secretary
Donald H. Rumsfeld heard - and said - little about armor or troop shortages,
issues that have made him a political target in Washington among both Democrats
and Republicans.
-
-
- His main message over a four-city tour was quite different:
that the insurgency has staying power and a seemingly endless supply of
weapons, and the time has come for ordinary Iraqis to realize that they
- not the Americans - will ultimately decide who prevails in this conflict.

- Excerpt from SPIEGEL INTERVIEW WITH US SECRETARY OF DEFENSE
DONALD RUMSFELD
-
- "Over Time, We'll Get it Right in Iraq"
-
- October 31st 2005
-
- SPIEGEL: On a daily basis, though, there are terrorist
attacks. Over 2,000 US soldiers have now been killed.
-
- RUMSFELD: We thought there would be a spike in incidents
prior to the October 15th referendum. There wasn't. There could be in December,
however. But, increasingly, the pressure being put on the terrorists and
the insurgents is working. They are capturing or killing large numbers
of senior al-Qaida and Zarqawi-type people. Lately we put in a tip line,
so that Iraqis can call in anonymously.

- .... He [Rumsfeld] went on, "There are some today
who are surprised that there are still pockets of resistance in Iraq, and
they suggest that this represents some sort of failure on the part of the
Coalition. But this is not the case." Rumsfeld compared the insurgents
with those true believers who "fought on during and after the defeat
of the Nazi regime in Germany."

- Presenter: Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld
-

-
- Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld Radio Interview
with Samir Nader, Radio SAWA, Middle East Broadcasting Networks
-
-
- NADER: How do you assess the new strategy in fighting,
defeating the insurgency? Is it working? Are insurgents returning
to towns after they clean them out?
-
- SECRETARY RUMSFELD: Well, the insurgents have brains,
and they look to see weak spots, and what they do is when we find them,
we go after them and capture or kill them, and to the extent that they
find a weakness somewhere in the country, they go and try to take advantage
of that. Throughout the history of warfare and insurgency it's always
been so. For every action they take, we watch what they do and adapt
our tactics, techniques and procedures, and too do they.
-
- NADER: Is there any improvement in Syria and Iran's
attitude toward supporting the insurgencies?
-
- SECRETARY RUMSFELD: No, not that I've seen.
Neither one is helpful. Both are unhelpful.
-
- ___________
-
- Isn't it good to know that here in America we can have
such a fine blend of Hypocrisy-democracy? Less than a month ago, he clearly
stated how "when we find them, we go after them and capture or kill
them." This according to the government's own defense news website.
-
- It is time to ask his royal highness - when does
the damage control stop, and our men and women come home?
-
- His highness' idea of insurgents might change again very
soon, and just mentioning "insurgents" will be met with
a snicker and the rebuttal, "that's an urban legend."
-
- Just like those WMDs are now an urban legend, too.
-
- And all the while the government is watching US...we
are also watching THEM.
