who hate us so much that they are willing to die to demonstrate it. Of course, their pre-disposition was always to dislike us. But there is a BIG difference between opposition and militant opposition, and by invading Iraq, we have tipped tens of thousands of moslems over that dividing line. To deny it is simply naivete of the worst kind.
What Syria and Iran are doing is simply facilitating and enabling those militants to actually become effective against us. It is Bush who is MOTIVATING them to die for their cause. That is what is so disastrous about our Iraq campaign - it has exactly played into the propaganda that Bin Laden has been using to recruit, and made what SHOULD have been viewed as the rantings of a mad man into credible rhetoric (at least when viewed from the perspective of a poor and uneducated moslem in the Arab world).
are a bunch of liars. The only reason we're in Iraq is because of his Daddy (who kicked SH's ass before).
So, now that we're there and Saddam ain't, what should we do?
See, I wanna pull out cuz GWB is a liar but what I can't get outta my mind is Mom and Pop Lunchbucket Iraq. He's the guy who lived in fear all these years of the knock on the door that this time it would be HIS head being used as a soccerball in Saddam Stadium, or maybe his kids...Or of being executed for having a TV.
He's the guy who's gonna continue to live in squalor and fear still more when we leave and the power vacuum is switched on and the REAL killing begins.
I remember Rawanda...I remember the rivers turned red by blood and the bodies, too many to count. 1/2 million some say. Good thing we had the first black president then...We should stay out of civil wars except our own IMO.
Hell, Iraquis have a tradition of peaceful handoffs of power, don't they? Do they have chads in Iraq?
Each day, the news informs us us of new horrors in Iraq. Although I was just a young kid in the early 70's, I thought that Vietnam and Watergate were supposed to have taught us that our government lies, and that we should be skeptical of its claims. I guess Pete was wrong when he wrote, and Roger sang, "we won't get fooled again."
