02:34 PM - Hollywood would throw this out as Hitler has played this bef
Just how many atrocities have to occur before the US media levels with us? The slitting of the throats of 2 our best on November 23rd, 2003 is disgusting. In Mosul 2 US soldiers were killed in an ambush by Iraqi teenagers. First the US heroes were pummeled with concrete blocks. Television footage showed the US heroes splayed on the ground as their comrades struggled to secure the area. It reminded us of October 1993 in Somalia!

The US soldiers are not equipped with adequate local intelligence and they are not capable of winning a guerilla war against these insurgents. In the history of the world the super-powers never have won these guerilla skirmishes as the US in Vietnam, and both Russia and the US in Afghanistan, can attest.

These scenes are going to be repeated. Until recently Mosul has been a success story, unlike the Sunni Muslim area as close to Baghdad. It has now deteriorated so rapidly that no place is safe for the occupiers, and the sad status of previously disinterested teenagers attacking our youth is a revolting example of just how poorly the occupation was planned for.

In Baghdad Brig, Gen, Kimmitt confirmed the Mosul deaths, but “We’re not going to get ghoulish about it” he said. Bush, in a break from trying to ruin the US economy by setting unattainably unreasonable records of deficits, by such huge ticket items as the Medicare and Energy bills, said, “These recent tragedies show clearly how well the “Operation Iraqi Freedom” project is advancing.”

Red staters just better bow down in homage to Herr Führer because, “his boys in blue will find a way to silence you.” Clearly the current FBI Bulletin on protesters, which cites that Big Brother is monitoring anti-war protestors, is a step toward a Gestapolike police state being sanctioned in the US. Civil liberty groups and politicians said these clearly evil tactics would surely jeopardize people’s First Amendment rights.

The GOP is illegally intimidating decent US citizens who don’t like the age old GOP tradition of warmongering for profits for “Pioneer” and “Ranger” big-time contributors only.

They also are intimidating union members, a traditional Democratic strong hold. In this marked FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE of November 24, 2003, “The United Steelworkers of America (USWA) is calling for a Congressional investigation into "a massive police state," created in part with federal funds, to intimidate union members and others critical of the proposed Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) and limit their rights during FTAA meetings in Miami last week.

"Last week, the fundamental rights of thousands of Americans … were blatantly violated, sometimes violently, by the Miami police, who systematically repressed our Constitutional right to free assembly with massive force, riot gear and armaments," said Leo W. Gerard, USWA international president, in a letter to Congressional leaders…….

"To do less would be to endorse homeland repression in the guise of homeland security," Gerard’s letter concluded.”

Florida’s police force had practice intimidating Democratic voters in the 2000 election. They just wanted to keep in practice for the 2004 election, if Ashcroft allows it to occur!

Just to make sure that Herr Mini-me, big brother 43, keeps in power the GOP is re-running the ads they used in the test phase of their plot to control the US, the 2002 mid-term elections. Those are the ads in which Dubya states that anyone who doesn’t agree with him totally is an evil degenerate in league with bin laden. Max Cleland, a celebrated Vietnam War hero, is still livid over a now-infamous TV commercial that Republican challenger Saxby Chambliss ran against him in the 2002 mid-term elections. By the way, the man who would “return honor and dignity to the white house”, picked a man who lost 3 limbs defending the US to attack with this filth. It opened with pictures of Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein, and then attacked Cleland for voting against President Bush's Homeland Security bill. It didn't mention that Cleland supported a Democratic bill that wasn't radically different.
"That was the biggest lie in America -- to put me up there with Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein and say I voted against homeland security!" Cleland says, his voice rising in anger.

Now Cleland, who is a member of the independent commission set up to investigate the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks has accused the Bush administration of deliberately delaying publication of an earlier congressional inquiry into the attacks.

Cleland said the administration feared publication might undermine the administration's case for the Iraq 2 war, which was based in part on the allegation that Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein had supported Osama bin Laden _ and the attendant possibility that Iraq might supply al-Qaida with weapons of mass destruction.

Cleland said, "The administration sold the connection (between Iraq and al-Qaida) to scare the pants off the American people and justify the war. There's no connection, and that's been confirmed by some of bin Laden's terrorist followers ... What you've seen here is the manipulation of intelligence for political ends."
This propaganda blitzkrieg worked so well for Herr Rove in 2002 that it had to be used again, but the piece needed to be spiffed up in its minor details just so the red staters would not think that they are held in so little regard that they can accept misinformation that isn’t even updated to match current events.

The strategy is designed to portray Democrats as weak on defense and to suggest that President Bill Clinton could have been tougher on terrorism, GOP officials said. Democrats called it an attack on their patriotism and noted past pledges by Bush not to politicize the war on terrorism.

The party unveiled the theme in Bush's first ad of the campaign, which is to begin running in Iowa November 23rd 2003. Over funereal music, the ad opens with a clip from Bush's State of the Union address in January in which he raised the specter of a chemical or biological attack on U.S. soil. Then, the screen fades to stark lettering: "Some are now attacking the President for attacking the terrorists," the type says. "Some call for us to retreat, putting our national security in the hands of others." The word "terrorists" turns red. Then viewers are urged to call Congress and "tell them to support the President's policy of preemptive self-defense." Bush has developed his preemption doctrine, a policy of attacking potential enemies before they can hit the United States, since the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

It doesn’t seem much different than the 2002 mid-term election propaganda that FOX blared constantly.

I didn’t see it anywhere in the US media that protestors in Trafalgar Square in London toppled an effigy of Dubya. My, don’t they love the “Toxic Cowboy” in England? Maybe even more than in another staunch US ally, Australia, where just in the summer of 2003, Bush was cursed during a visit to their parliament. Makes you feel goose-bumpy with all of these pure moments of unadulterated love.

Pretty soon in a lie coming to you Bush will say he has won “the everlasting war against terrorism” particularly in Afghanistan. Sounds good, but if Dubya says it, it must be a total falsehood.

The recent Afghan News Network News Story, “US says Taleban still a threat” states, “Members of the Bush administration are worried that the Taleban is winning more support in parts of Afghanistan. ….

The US strategy is to win more popular support for the government of Hamid Kharzai by accelerating the re-building of the country. …

But critics wonder whether the Bush administration has simply become too distracted by dealing with the parallel crisis in Iraq.”

Okay, so “Washington's envoy to Afghanistan has called for new efforts to combat the Taleban and al-Qaeda there.”, but the people in Afghanistan are making great strides in achieving a democracy.

Sounds good, but if Dubya says it, it must be a total falsehood.

Another recent Afghan News Network News Story, "US Concerns Aired in Over Parts of Draft Afghan Constitution" states, “U.S. officials and experts testifying before a congressional panel have expressed concern about parts of the draft constitution for Afghanistan. Witnesses said progress is being made in Afghanistan, but changes may be necessary in the draft to make sure the rights of all Afghan citizens are protected.” While avoiding direct mention of Shariah, Islamic holy law, the draft states that "in Afghanistan, no law can be contrary to the sacred religion of Islam and the values of this Constitution." This could not be a surprise to Dubya’s crack team, but now, at this late juncture it is emerging as a problem. Most of the Muslim countries have this adherence to religious precepts in their government, not just Afghanistan.

Well, Dubya will say, we learn and that will not be a problem in Iraq. WRONG!

The article of Haroon Siddiqui “What Iraq will get isn't self-rule” states, “On the political front, Bremer's job had been to slow down self-rule, lest the dreaded majority Shiites take over. ....That triggered Plan B — a 15-member governing council, genuinely representative of Iraq's religious, ethnic and tribal interests, but bereft of power....The council does not know what its job is, replied Massoud Barzani, the seasoned Kurdish leader.... There is no coherent plan yet whether a constitutional assembly would be elected, as the Shiites want, or nominated.”

The fact is that the entire rational world has realized this since this bogus war began, “Notwithstanding Bush's lectures on democracy, only the naïve would continue to believe that America wants anything other than a satellite state.

The only change toward that overall goal is the gradual reduction of the American footprint in Iraq, with an increase in remote control from Washington.”

Doesn’t it make you feel like a piece of dirt that our non-elected resident of the US white house is considered to be a war profiteering fool by the world, and we have to vote him out, or he might be in place for four more years of vile GOP treachery!

The GOP operatives can easily say that the US is a democracy, not ruled by a tyrant, as a Nazi government requires. That is true but some of the developments since 9-11 are too evil to be brushed off as being merely “Orwellian”. If the GOP could have its way, Iraq would be nearer to a democracy than the US. He has already, with his Dad’s US Supreme Court Justices, thrown out the 2000 election results. Maybe he can get Ashcroft or Olsen to mumble something about elections can’t be held during “the everlasting war against terrorism” and throw out the 2004 election. When the dust settles on this they can work on changing the US Constitution and allow Dubya to be named resident for life of the white house.
Remember Dubya saying that a Democracy is hard and he’d prefer being a tyrant. A man who lost the popular vote, the electoral vote, the state of Florida, has the hubris to talk about being named the tyrant of the US. The better label is Dubya‘s self-proclaimed “leader of the free world who doesn’t do nuances”.

This isn’t so far fetched. He got the US to say bin laden, then he switched them to Hussein. He tells them about the progress in the US occupation of Iraq even though the world realizes it is a criminal tragedy. Give the red staters a few months, a few elevation of the threat level, and a few beers and they will be terrified and numbed enough to believe anything. They believe Dubya won in 2000 don’t they? They can believe that they can believe anything!

Most chilling are these two quotes:
"I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator," said Adolf Hitler.

"God told me to strike at Al Qa'ida and I struck them. And then he instructed me to strike at Saddam, which I did. With the might of God on our side we will triumph," said George Bush.

We know how Hitler worked out. Take your pick. Auditory hallucinations have a very limited realm of possible causes. Dubya could simply being lying again to cover-up some illegal offshore deal, he might be insane, he could be a dry drunk, he could be undergoing some post-traumatic stress syndrome, or there could be a physical cause. He has never done anything traumatic, and he rarely works even now as president, so it can’t be a post-traumatic stress syndrome. His family, going back to Prescott Bush, had strong ties to illegal activities using foreign cut-outs. 41 and 43 are in bed with the Saudis and 43 has bin laden’s brother-in-law as a benefactor.

I went to Sunday school and I remember that “love one another” and “thou shalt not kill” were part of the 10 Commandments. How can starting a war against Islam--which really failed in the Middle Ages, be considered an edict from God by a sane person? Now, I heard John Wayne mumble “you’re for us or against us” in many of his macho movies. Maybe Dubya just got those lines scrambled and he is just stupid. Just being stupid really looks to be the most favorable analysis so far.

Does anyone know if he has 666 branded somewhere upon his body? He might simply be the Anti-Christ!

In the name that is all that is good and decent in world, how did the lazy privileged AWOL flyboy, bumble his way to the highest pinnacle of the world. Why doesn’t the “Peter Principle” apply to the ultra-connected Bush family?

The US isn’t a democracy though if the GOP cuts the Democrats from participating in legislation and guides all of the profits to the “Rangers” and “Pioneers”. That, dear “red stater”, is the definition of an oligarchy!

A lazy fool, who after he was finally able to give up alcohol and drugs and has a marked improvement in his life is good. His reactions after that were all bad. It is guessed that his recovery occurred because of his newfound devotion to God. That he consequentially developed a Messianic view of his role in the world is worse than stupid, it has a component of emotional illness in it. His miraculous recovery, only in Dubya’s eyes, from a profligate youth to a loser in every business venture he ever undertook—I don’t see much recovery at all, has reformed the world into his personal torture device for those who are not with us. Hollywood would throw this script out as Hitler played it before.
