Subject: RE: BS: A New Generation's Vietnam
Why Saddam, Dead Horse. Did he win a lottery or something. Do you really think he is the only leader of a country in the world who has killed it's own people? There are too mnay to list. George Buish included where as a Texas governor he sat by with blinders on as cahnces are very very high that innocent people were put to death.
But Texas ain't nuthin' to countries, who are the US's supposed friends who practice murder on a daily basis of minorities and folks they just happen to dislike. Do a little research on Algeria and you'll find that the US is one the wrong side of a couple hundred thousand folks who have been killed because they practice the wrong religion...
So, why Saddam? No, this isn't just about oil. It's very much about Bush wanting to clear up his dad;s unfinished business. It's very much about diverting the attention of the American working class and voters from the more serious failures of the Bush administration.It's very much about Lockheed-Martin, which really owns and runs America. It's very much about a foriegn policy decision to *carry and big stick and use it regularially and often*. It's very much about the Bush administration being comprised of a bunch of retreads who want to get one more case of the jollies before they go to pasture. It's very much about the Christain Right (which is neither) who view Islam as a threat to Chistianity. And it's very much about violence and an administration that lacks the creativity and courage to cahnge the manner in which conflict is resoolved. And, it is about resources, darned right...
