U.S. OCCUPATION OF IRAQ: QUOTE OF THE WEEK

The disgraceful Iraq farce continues as the three-headed hydra of Bush, Blair and that Funny Little Guy Downunder, thrash about trying to dodge the increasing hail of facts that are spoiling their desert adventure.

Here are a couple of quotes that reflect the true nature of the U.S. occupation of that sad and sorry land.
According to an ABC News reporter (the U.S. ABC, that is), an angry American Sergeant in Iraq told him "I've got my own 'Most Wanted List,' " referring to the deck of cards the U.S. government published, featuring Saddam Hussein, his sons, and other wanted members of the former Iraqi regime.

"The aces in my deck are Paul Bremer, Donald Rumsfeld, George Bush, and Paul Wolfowitz."

And then there's U.S. General Ricardo Sanchez in Baghdad who, unlike his masters in Washington, is worried about Iraqi reaction to the occupation.

"When you take a father in front of his family and put a bag over his head, " says Sanchez, "and put him on the ground you have had a significant adverse effect on his dignity and respect in the eyes of his family."

Hmm, with that kind of insight, no wonder U.S. legitimacy is sinking into the desert sands.

In a desperate attempt to garner support from the very people he sneered at prior to the "war", Bush's pathetic carping at the U.N. most recently revealed just how morally bankrupt US. foreign policy really is. Let the Yanks squirm! And let them PAY for every cent of "reconstruction" - and, more appropriately, reparations - in Iraq!





You got what you wanted Georgie boy, now swallow it!

How dense are US voters? Slick Willy got into strife for lying about doing an Arnie with Monica, but Dumbya Bush lied about the urgent need to attack Saddam Hussein, and the moron is still sitting there in the Oval orifice, virtually intact... and, folks, people got killed, are getting killed, and will continue to be killed because of Dumbya's lies... Hey, reality check Yanks! (Oh, I keep forgetting, Arnie got elected Governer on the basis of his... movies???)
