Year Five - All the Great Lies http://tinyurl.com/4gdww
George Bush, our Neroesque leader, never tires of 'moving on' - without ever looking back at the absolute carnage in his wake.
by Jim Kirwan
Feb. 21 - 2005 - We are beginning the fifth year of unfinished business, under an infantile and dangerous leadership that in all this time has finished nothing they proposed. Policies defined and promises broken; budgets outlined and costs exceeded; Rhetoric by the square mile that has morphed into nothing but useless and distracting trash.
Bush, our Neroesque leader never tires of "moving on'' without ever looking back at the absolute carnage in his wake.
Now he's doing Europe one more time and crowing about victories and democracy, freedom and peace, back inside those bloody footprints that were once Afghanistan and Iraq. As projects, neither of these war-torn places is even close to completion, yet Bush presents these open graves as accomplishments that are now in the past.
Hundreds of thousands dead, three hundred billion dollars worth of munitions and blood, cultures destroyed, treaties and international cooperation ruined, millions of peoples lives forever changed - and in the plus column - Bush has a just a couple of rigged elections, one here and one there to show for all that wasted treasure.
Oh, and he‚s just approved an attack upon Iran set for June of 2005! Pls. see - Url.: http://www.libertyforum.org/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=iraq_war&Number=293393206
Is our fearless leader fazed? No, he‚s still doing his impersonation of the Terminator for the entire world. Part of his problem is that he basically blew the attack on Iraq, by demonstrating his determination to remain unilateral. Now he‚s discovered that we can‚t pay for that arrogant stunt, without European help.
The charade he‚s using this time to encourage the EU to join him, is that since Afghanistan and Iraq are behind us now the next challenge we all face is Peace in the Middle East! To do this he is proposing that Europe side with Israel* and the US to shut down the nuclear threat that he perceives as present and impending in Iran (hence the need for this new aggression).
However, Bush still has to address the lack of US troops that he'll need for those pending attacks upon Iran and others, so he's currently trying to jawbone the Japanese into defending themselves so that we can reassign those 50,000 troops to whatever war they might be needed in - come June.
Pls see - Url.: http://www.rense.com/general63/grow.htm
Whether or not he can obtain help with his new Empirical aggression in Iran, he still has to convince the world of our sudden interest in ending the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians.
This „idea'' still lacks the necessary credibility, since for the previous four years he has shown nothing but contempt for Palestine and its people.
If Bush and Sharon are serious about having peace in that region, then the answer is simple. Bush needs to take a page from his mentor Ronald Reagan (the great communicator). Bush must go to Jerusalem, and meet Sharon there, at the wall. Then before the cameras of the assembled members of the press, he must proclaim:
"MR. SHARON, TEAR DOWN THIS WALL!''
The destruction of that wall would lead directly to the beginnings of the international peace he says he wants to achieve - nothing less will do - yet because these two are who they have been, neither the likelihood of this event nor even the possibility seems real. But if Bush is one-fiftieth the man he thinks he is then he would do this!
The number five is the number of change. And, as this is Year Five of All the Great Lies, isn‚t it time that the public finally begin to demand some results from our Neroesque leader, BEFORE he finishes his destructions not of Rome, but of the planet?
His record at home is beyond compare as he has set a new world‚s record for the national debt that we now owe. His policies on energy, health, education, and the environment are abysmal and falling ever deeper, at light speed.
His attempted murder of Social Security is now being challenged; but the far larger crime of what he is allowing Medicare to do to the future of millions of people has yet to even be challenged. And through it all he has striven to cover up the truth about the losses we‚ve already suffered in his first two wars. Pls. see - Url.: http://www.tbrnews.org/Archives/a1390.htm
The good news is that the traditional media (the press) is beginning to awaken to just how far behind they have been, in covering the critical particulars of this continuing collapse.Url.: http://onlinejournal.com/Media/021805Madsen/021805madsen.html
"Change'' Bush says; „is something most people resist.'' But this should be the year of the kinds of changes that most people would cheer! The end of the problem between Israel and Palestine, the end of the Dreams of Empire that a bunch of low-life thugs tried to foist upon the world - all of it could be accomplished with just a little more spine by a lot more people who are willing to educate themselves and their friends, about nine-eleven and what‚s really happening now in this troubled world, because of the dark madness that happened, on that beautiful September morning in 2001.
Beyond that there is a collective debt to pay, beyond the money that we owe. That debt is to those who shall come after us. They‚ll need a world to live in that has not been poisoned or destroyed, a planet that is able to naturally sustain itself and the life that lives upon it.
Future generations should also have a world that can once again place their belief in individuals and in personal reputations, in a world where there are laws and consequences for the actions of everyone.
That would be a place where no man or woman can be above or beyond the international laws by which all of us must live.
Will this happen?
It can, if we are determined!
