Subject: RE: BS: Irony: Bush and the UN
point? earlier you said it was a matter of opinion, make up your mind.

bribes? spoils? odd way of looking at it.

I just see poor diplomacy by an arrogant, inflexible administration that twisted the notion of immiment threat and used the fear from 911
(with no proof) to scare the US populace into supporting a pre-emptive war (for the first time in US history). The same administration that alienated its friends and allies, squandered the goodwill that was felt around the world for the US after 911
and is now seeking the help of the UN and other major European nations it so disdained only recently.

(vacation man BUsh - 31 so far) is so unwilling to admit that
they made any mistakes, -
(not having enough troops to establish security despite Shinsekis 'wild' overestimates - which turned out to be true,
but hey... the oil fields were secured, who cares about the museums and hospitals.

disbanding the IRaqi army (instantly creating a large cadre of armed, idle and angry young men)

both Cheney and Wolfowitz predicting they would be greeted as liberators with flowers )


who do they give soveignty June 30th? (Bremer=Good Question)
(Bush=were working on that)
(what happened to 'operation Iraqi Freedom' - and free elections)
why June 30th? could it have something to do with the US elections?

they havent got afucking clue whatto do next.
little red hen my ass.

more like chicken little.
