There's more of course with Bush's distinct taste for warmongering. What he's done in naming Iraq,China,Russia,North Korea,Iran,Lybia and Syria as priority potential nuclear targets is tantamount to indulging in the very thing he claims to be fighting in the free world-and that's terrorism.When Bush rode off into the sunset on the tail of Osama Bin Laden in all out retribution for the Sept11 World Trade towers atrocities he had general widespread approval for his actions.But the move was tinged with overriders that despite the fact that thousands died when the twin towers collapsed after being hit by hijacked jetliners , sanctioned retribution should not be seen as an excuse to the spilling of yet more innocent blood. Having rained down thousands of tonnes of bombs ,including the biggest explosive devices of America's arsenal outside the nuclear bomb it seems Bush has discovered an insatiable thirst for war games. There are cranks in all walks of life and society -even the White House has it's share.It would seem those aides who have long urged past presidents to reach for the code books,keys and nuclear buttons are starting to gain an upper hand around the conference table. That should be reason enough for us all to press the panic button!!
