- This is the length of time that the Deciders & his
mercenaries have been devastating Iraq, one Iraqi at a time, with the tacit
approval of too many Americans, for far too long. The Decider, speaking
to the nation today noted that if we were to pull out, 'that would be disastrous
for the security of this nation.' He's been making noises like that for
a long time now: Bush should have thought about all that "before"
he decided to have his tantrums that led to the invasion of Iraq-now it's
too late!
-
- Over 10 million people told him that, the UN told him
that, the Atlantic Alliance told him that and NATO told him that
but did he listen? Hell NO, he was George W. Bush, the Dictator in waiting.
-
- Now he calls himself the Decider, and he tells us that
he's changed. But his 'new' policies still look exactly like the old policy:
"Stay-the-Course," but with additions in both manpower and billions
more, to keep the grim reaper's weapons moving at top speed-cutting down
people like a knife goes through butter. What's changed? Why George has
changed, he's the Decider now! Cheney hasn't changed except to get even
more belligerent from his nasty- hole inside his own secret government
that's wallpapered in paranoia and Secret-Contracts-Unending. Rice hasn't
forgotten how to wave to the cameras: But she's still incapable of making
anything that looks like an actual deal take place. Rummy's still hiding
out in the Pentagon, but he's been replaced by a former head of the CIA
so we'll probably never know what his job is really all about, either
now or later.
-
- What's happening with the war? That's really not going
well at all. In fact if you'd slept through three-quarters of all that
time, and you were just tuning in to THE WAR, you'd think that it just
began-minus of course about a million Iraqis that will never see the sun
again, along with very large numbers of American casualties that have returned
in pieces, along with 3200 plus Americans that are in the same place as
the Iraqis they killed. There is one very large unknown, that comes from
the numbers of private contractors (about 100,000 on the ground now), but
there are no numbers available, except maybe to Cheney because he got them
their contracts, as to how many exactly of these mercenaries are also dead
or maimed: they have insurance so they won't be going to that hell-hole
that Walter Reed apparently has now become. (1)
-
- Then there's the money: something like 2.3 trillion of
our hard- earned money has apparently 'disappeared' in the fog of war,
according to the War Department. That was enough money to have made New
Orleans whole again, and we might have actually been able to provide some
jobs and food to the poor with that much of an influx: but we're not smart
enough to be told about this 'little problem' by our oh-so-qualified leaders:
those same idiots that not only got us into this mess, but who are now
insisting that we must continue to stay the course and "just give
War (another) chance!"
- History proves that "when you're in a hole-the best
solution is to just stop digging"!
-
- Congress for their part in this criminal affair has taken
the will of the electorate and told us that we basically don't know what
we're doing either. Pelosi has "decided" for the congressional
representatives that are supposed to listen to us, not her-that Impeachment
is still 'off the table." So now the pundits are saying that the ONLY
thing that congress can do is to control the purse strings and just cut
off the funding for the war. But that doesn't resonate in congress, "it's
just too risky." "Might give the public the idea that they don't
support the troops-and since we're coming up on yet another election -no
politician wants to be seen bucking the president of the USA, when we're
in a war.
-
- The solution is obvious: STOP the WAR! Hold the hearings,
use the constitutional power of Impeachment and bring "consequences"
back into the political equations that we have to live by-and let's just
get on with it NOW!
-
- The facts are these: We have already lost the damned
war. Our military alone could never have won this one anyhow-because this
can only be settled by diplomacy-and by real politics that recognize the
true facts on the ground, which we should remember from Vietnam- cannot
be done with weaponry alone. The longer we stay there, implementing one
tiny new point every six months is not only time and money misspent
but it means the needless additional loss of human lives that will run
into the hundreds of thousands: and all because our pretend dictator can't
face reality?
-
- Besides all that: the people we put in charge of this
disaster never had any plans whatsoever-for what they did to Iraq. If there
had been anything remotely like a plan then we would not have completely
blown the occupation. Nor would we have taken a darkly political situation
and turned that into a howling mass of terror, chaos and murder. We delighted
in using force-unending to control a public that was already on its knees-thanks
to our 'sanctions' and our 24-7 bombing raids that lasted twelve long years.
We have spent these last four years breaking into private homes, rounding
up all the males and some who are still children, together with some women
for routine rape & torture, just because we can. Our so-called Intelligence
agencies don't speak the language, our spies have no clue as to what the
hell is going on anywhere inside a three way civil war that we more than
helped create-and still the Decider says we must Stay-the- Course and "give
war another chance"? What is Bush playing at- and why do we tolerate
this?
-
- Do we not already have enough enemies that we must continue
to go our- of-our way to create millions more just because we can!
The Decider is fond of saying that "We must complete the Mission"
but he fails to define what that 'Mission' really is-because he can't actually
tell us the truth of that situation either. Part of this is because this
is actually Israel's fight-not ours. The other part of this is that we've
got this scam going that the Iraqis will never buy into which gives
all their oil to foreign oil companies for the next 35 years. The Iraqis
get nothing at all! That is the 'victory' that the Decider is waiting on
the contracts that he's expecting his puppet regime in Baghdad to
hand him very soon now: and those are the real reasons we won't leave now,
while we still can. Are the lives of your loved ones worth the wait? Those
who die are more than just a statistic to those who love them-and as for
those who say, "It's worth the risk" you have to wonder-to whom
and 'compared to what'!
-
- We need to get out now, and let Israel fight its own
war inside Iraq where they will not be facing kids with rocks, but a savvy
enemy with real weapons that they might enjoy using on the Israeli army-just
for a change of pace.
-
- On the home front Gonzalez has finally shown his amateur
side to the entire world, with his 'busted- game' that he tried to run
on eight US Attorneys. For this one, Roberto partnered-up with the Decider
and Rove his co-conspirators-and now it looks like congress might stop
shaking long enough to call this fatally-flawed trio in for questioning.
But if Fred Fielding, the president's new negotiator, gets his way; then
the Office of the Presidency will not be allowed to lower itself to explain
its actions to the Congress, a co-equal branch of government at least
on paper. However if that doesn't happen there just might be a huge backlash
against everyone in Washington-cause this little game has gone on for far
too long!
-
- This time there are hundreds of e-mails; and a paper
trail exists that puts the finger on Rove and the Decider who decided that
they had a problem with that prosecutor down in San Diego. This, because
she sent an e-mail to Justice saying that she was following up on the conviction
of Duke Cunningham with higher-ups that were also involved -and she was
requesting documents. That produced a direct response from the White House
to Justice saying "We have a problem!" After that the firings
went forward, with that particular US Attorney prominently among the victims.
The jerk from Rove's office that was slated to take over one of those US
Attorney vacancies had been disbarred for cause, and that factoid seemed
to really anger a lot of congressional people. The Bandits snuck a clause
into the Patriot Act saying that the President can replace US Attorneys,
without congressional oversight well, congress appears to be growing
a spine for this one! (2)
-
- The whole circle of complicity is now in danger of becoming
targets of everything from corruption and fraud, to serious criminal activity,
in direct contradiction of their oaths of office. It remains to be seen
whether the congress will really stand up to the Outlaws and take them
all up to 'the Hill' with warrants if need be including the so-called
president of the United States of America. The one lone holdout may be
Cheney-as he lives by a completely different set of rules, having his own
private army, and his own totally separate government operation that answers
to no one not even to any agency of the US Government-ever! So maybe
Cheney might escape but everyone else ought to be invited to that
party before the public's microphones, to answer the Senate's questions
that will be asked in Open Session! That would really be a week to remember,
imagine Bush under oath with Cheney NOT allowed to come within 500 yards
of the building there's going to be an awful lot of stuttering going
on. But IF this happened we might see the beginning of the roll-back from
this tyranny that dares to call itself a government!
-
- Who knows with a functioning government we might actually
be able to begin to do something about our imploding economy that's becoming
more like the fourth world every single day. It's the looting of this nation
that is lining so many corporate coffers and people are, as always, too
narrow skulled to grasp that they are being screwed. This cute little system
is how the lackey's of the NWO are now able to dismember that cadaver that
we used to call this country - turning her into nothing but pieces of putrid
meat to be parsed and sub- divided into nice little corporate chunks of
the what was once thought to have been the world's most profitable (and
most promising) nation. Well those days are definitely over! (3)
-
- Here's the equation, just follow the money & the
transnational corporations: Israel is making bank & gains on the war,
Halliburton is also making bank on the war, along with Kellogg, Brown &
Root, plus Blackwater (Fred Fielding - the president's new lawyer is still
Blackwater's lawyer) - add in corporate America - making bank on the same
wars - and it soon appears that there's no-way that we'll ever be able
to STOP any of these endless wars unless we completely fall apart militarily.
That would only speed up what's happening on our own borders which would
probably instantly dissolve anyhow, once we are attacked again anyhow!
(4)
-
- It looks like the dawning of the fifth year of this war-a
war that will go down in history as one of the most heinous continuous
crimes ever committed under so many false pretenses-may finally be about
to come to a screeching halt! Call people, talk to people, make some noise
about this Outrage-if we can do that long enough and loud enough, (during
the week as well as on weekends) then just maybe something in this nightmare
will finally begin to really change-for the better!
