Even conservative columnist George Will is growing tired of the President Bush’s rote, rosy assessments about Iraq. Will writes in his latest column: “Last week, in the latest iteration of a familiar speech (the enemy is ‘brutal,’ ‘we’re on the offensive,’ ‘freedom is on the march’) that should be retired, the president said, ‘This is a moment of choosing for the Iraqi people.’ Meaning what? Who is to choose, and by what mechanism? Most Iraqis already ‘chose’ — meaning prefer — peace. But in 1917 there were only a few thousand Bolsheviks among 150 million Russians — and the Bolsheviks succeeded in hijacking the country for seven decades.”

Actually, things are going according to plan for the zioinsts. The bush regime hoped for chaos, violence and civil war all along.
“..The agenda to maintain division and ethnic tension in Iraq can be seen as long term plan and the only way to finally capture and enslave a country that has historically thrown out its occupiers on every occasion.
In 1982, Oded Yinon, an official from the Israeli Foreign Affairs office, wrote: “To dissolve Iraq is even more important for us than dissolving Syria. In the short term, it’s Iraqi power that constitutes the greatest threat to Israel. The Iran-Iraq war tore Iraq apart and provoked its downfall. All manner of inter-Arab conflict help us and accelerate our goal of breaking up Iraq into small, diverse pieces.”
Ethnic cleansing, maimed children and thousands of dead American soldiers are a small price to pay because for the Globalists the end always justifies the means and untold bloodshed and misery and bloodshed won’t stand in their way.
Such a strategy, aimed at marginalizing the Sunni resistance, the group that always spearheads opposition to occupation in Iraq, has also been triumphed by such luminaries at Council on Foreign Relations member and New York Times editor Leslie Gelb.
So if the plan is to keep the different sects at each others’ throats then who benefits from the chaos created by the endless bombings? It is a myth that Sunni and Shia factions in Iraq violently despise each other’s very existence. Most co-exist peacefully and only fringe elements are interested in stoking tension, this according to Dahr Jamail, an unembedded journalists living in and reporting from Iraq.
Jamail agrees that it is inconceivable that Sunni or Shia factions would even consider attacking religious shrines like Samarra’s Golden Mosque. Iran has blamed the US and Israel for the attack and former CIA analyst and presidential advisor Ray McGovern concurs that they would have had the motive. Previous examples shed light on the plausible identity of the perpetrators.
In September 2005, British SAS were caught attempting to stage a terror attack by disguising themselves as Arabs and attacking Iraqi police. The soldiers were arrested and taken to a nearby jail where they were confronted and interrogated by an Iraqi judge.
The initial demand from the puppet authorities that the soldiers be released was rejected by the Basra government. At that point tanks were sent in to ‘rescue’ the terrorists and the ‘liberated’ Iraqis started to riot, firebombing and pelting stones at the vehicles injuring British troops.
The only news outlet to ask any serious questions was Australian TV news which according to one viewer gave, “credibility to the ‘conspiracy theorists’ who have long claimed many terrorist acts in Iraq are, in fact, being initiated and carried out by US, British and Israeli forces.”
The consequences of this strategy of tension are obviously hideous for Iraqis and their future generations but they also come home to roost for Westerners. As a result of the disaster in Iraq, the sullied reputation of the United States has collapsed and its government is increasingly seen as out of control and illegitimate. While on the surface this is true it is also by design because it opens the door for a Globalist form of world dictatorship to step in and ‘rescue’ the American people from its tyrannical government.
The end game is the complete destruction of US sovereignty.

You got it, Ian, words of wisdom from a tin hat site. I’m sitting here waiting to be “rescued.” Yep, bring it on.
Iraq is a done deal, simmering on the back-burner, while busily at each others throats. If you’ve been paying attention, last year Israel sold India our most sophisticated radar detection array to spot and destroy incoming Pakistani missiels and the Zionists now have brainless Bush shaking hands on a nuclear pack with India { Iran’s backdoor }.
Does “Brainless” think China isn’t watching their best customer’s oil supply being threatened?
Look at brainless with his jaw set. Wouldn’t you love to play poker with “Mr. Tell?”
http://www.usatoday.com/news/world/2006-03-02-nuclear-pact_x.htm
Brainless wants his nuclear war, but, has anybody explained to Brainless about the difficulty of putting the toothpaste back into the tube.
Part of the problem may be that he’s never seen one of those things explode.
He carries the suitcase, you know…
I had to laugh at Bush the other day, he was saying “when we find Osama Bin Laden, and we WILL find him!”, exactly the same phrase he used when talking about WMDs. You’d think he could come up with some new material. His speech writer needs to retire.
“Osama can run but he can’t hide” has always been one of my favorites. Looks like he’s proven Bush wrong on both accounts, for years.
The sad thing is that Ian’s “tin hat site” is more accurate than Bush’s advisors.
In this day where the lie rules, Brainless’ handlers may already have OBL and are waiting for the “political moment” to spring him on us.
The Israelis have taught us that truth has no value, and we seem to be making that a part of our culture.
Brainless just hasn’t learned how to finesse the lie yet.
I promise to read that link later Ian. IT could not be anymore “tinhat” then what the bushies are peddling these days.
The kook right base is starting to remind me of the the guy who fell off a hundred story building. As he fell past floor after floor and the folks in the building looked on shocked horror; the falling man just kept saying “so far so good!”
Here is some more “tin hat” stuff.
“Human rights abuses in Iraq are worse than they were under Saddam Hussein, John Pace, the UN’s outgoing human rights chief in Iraq said Thursday.
Pace, who left his post last month, said that there is an increase in the level of extra-judicial executions and torture in Iraq.
“Under Saddam, if you agreed to forgo your basic right to freedom of expression and thought, you were physically more or less OK,” Pace said in an interview with The Associated Press. “But now, no. Here, you have a primitive, chaotic situation where anybody can do anything they want to anyone.”
The scale of atrocity now “extends over a much wider section of the population than it did under Saddam.”
Pace’s comments came as sectarian violence in Iraq threatened to plunge the country into civil war. Last week’s bombing of one of the country’s holiest Shia shrines triggered a series of reprisal attacks against Sunnis.
The situation has deteriorated by the “death squads” operated by the Shia-dominated Interior Minister, Pace said.
He also said that the government-backed “death squads” and rebels threaten morgue workers not to properly investigate deaths of the victims of torture and killings. “They are told it is not necessary, and not in their interests,” in order to “minimize any chances” that their crimes could be probed or prosecuted.
Pace noted that around three-quarters of the bodies brought to the morgue each month showed evidence of gunshot wounds to the head or injuries caused by drill-bits or burning cigarettes. “Nearly all were executed and tortured,” he added.
Iraq is witnessing one of its worst periods of violence, with more than 18 people being killed in separate attacks across the country on Thursday.
In the deadliest attack, unidentified gunmen shot dead more than nine members of the Iraqi security forces at a checkpoint in the northern city of Tikrit.”http://prisonplanet.com/articles/march2006/020306_b_Torture.htm

You’ve got some good informative posts, just leave the slogans off.
Those slogans are hurting your message.
And not to worry about “tin-man.”
The more foil he throws at ya, the better you’re doing.
Well, George Will, the Zionists think “Bush is Right” and it’s time to put that in print.
You first, I’m just behind ya, tying my shoe.

Dubya needs to cut the crap and start acting like a man. Flowery words are a stark contrast to the reality of the situation over there.
Amen, X!
If rosy rhetoric won’t do the trick, you can always try silencing reporters telling a contrary view.
From the Washington Post:
“There’s a tone of gleeful relish in the way they talk about dragging reporters before grand juries, their appetite for withholding information, and the hints that reporters who look too hard into the public’s business risk being branded traitors,” said New York Times Executive Editor Bill Keller, in a statement responding to questions from The Washington Post. “I don’t know how far action will follow rhetoric, but some days it sounds like the administration is declaring war at home on the values it professes to be promoting abroad.”
President Bush has called the NSA leak “a shameful act” that was “helping the enemy,” and said in December that he was hopeful the Justice Department would conduct a full investigation into the disclosure.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/03/04/AR2006030400867.html
The leaking wasn’t the shameful act, the act leaked was shameful, on par with leaking a CIA agent for political petty reasons. What happened to Bush’s “Leaks happen all the time in Washington, we may never know…”, oh , yea, that was when it was his Administration doing the leaking. Just like they leaked to the media in the war run up, then cited the agencies that ran their stories.
How many of the 18 posts here support bush? A big fat zero. Where oh where are the bushies?
Here I am. As I have said before, my chief complaint against Bush is that he is not a true Republican. But still he is better than the Demoncrat crap you would have us accept. You feminine dyslexic Demoncrats misread “the right to bear arms” as “the right to arm bears.”
Truth,You’re a f*ckin idiot. ;)
