SEE NO EVIL, HEAR NO EVIL, FEEL NO PAIN : CAUSE WE KILLED ALL THEM EVIL INGRATE MUSLIMS.

By Peter Fredson

A Slight Satire

I once lived in Texas and know what them Bush whacker critters in Crawford think. Fer instance:

Yeah, we brought them Iraqi bastards freedom and democracy, and got precious little thanks for it. We did it with 140,000 soldiers, Humvees, helicopters, fighter jets, cruise missiles, heavy tanks, large cannon, grenades, automatic rifles and all that other peacemaking equipment our corporations are making billions of profit from.

We did it by continually pointing our weapons at any Iraqi who dares to walk outside.

We did it by breaking down any door, day or night, demolishing the entire house, or running a tank through a small house to kill those stupid suckers inside.

It cost our taxpayers a hell of a lot but them Iraqis don’t appreciate it. It cost our soldiers a lot of blood, sweat and tears, but them Iraqis don’t seem to understand the sacrifices we went through in order to occupy their country and bring them the blessings of George Bush.

We did it with our policy of “shoot first and ask questions later” evolved originally in old Western shootouts. We did it with our proselytizing contractors who make more money than any one in the United States for similar work.

We did it by destroying their water system and electricity, roads and bridges, hospitals and schools, factories and markets and their stupid mosques. We did it in Fallujah where we killed hundreds of insurgents, bandits, thugs, who opposed our legitimate invasion and occupation, but we were forced to expend ammunition and time to kill several thousand women and children too, who don’t really count.

In fact, Bush thinks it is trivial to count civilian dead, and embarrassing to his “legacy” to show our own dead, maimed and wounded.

We started the whole wonderful invasion by promising to get Saddam out of office, and it only took a couple of months and the loss of life of some thousands of collaterals who had never done anything to us but were damned stupid Iraqis who got in the way of our operations.

And once we got Saddam in jail, we showed how smart we were by having President Bush and his neocons choose some Iraqi exiles and set them up with the understanding that if they didn’t do like he wanted, they were toast.

We promised to give sovereignty back to them, which we had taken from them, at the point of guns and bayonets, tanks and public relations people, missionaries, avid Christians, contractors with guns, and slyly gave ourselves immunity from prosecution for war crimes.

We held elections under our guns, under our rules, and declared that the Iraqis were now FREE under our jurisdiction and all the press sycophants shouted hallelujah, the Iraqis are FREE, by the grace of George the Second.

The only trouble is them ungrateful Iraqis resented our troops, weapons, death, destruction, fake sovereignty, occupation under extreme duress. So we gotta stay there and kill all them ingrates in self-defense until they agree to accept our freedom and democracy and declare George the Second the greatest Christian leader in history, next to Jesus.

We gotta “stay the course”, take over large parts of Iraq for permanent military bases from which we will invade Iran and Syria when we find a good pretext for preemptive action or can declare that their evil intentions represent an imminent danger to our way of life (which is peace, good-will, good-neighborliness, generosity, and willingness to arbitrate disputes.)

We gotta build a BIG embassy so the John Bolton clones can bully the rest of the world and launch death and destruction on anyone who dares challenge us.

We gotta stay in our BIG bases so that the military-industrialist corporations can continue to make huge profits from the sale of weapons, munitions, vehicles, planes, etc. You don’t really expect them to turn weapons into plough-shares, do you?

We gotta fight them THERE, or they will come to Hartford, Los Angeles, and Chicago with their heathen ways determined to make us worship their false god, because they hate freedom and democracy. And we sure don’t want them evil Muslims invading Washington to mess up the good life of True Believers and neocons.

That might force the Senators and their children to join the army and defend our country, and that just ain’t right.

By the way, we ain’t giving them back that oil we took, not until we drain every last drop of it for ourselves. So, Cindy go back where you come from, shut up and let us get on with our invasion and occupation by “brave boys” that you are putting in danger by criticizing us.

Don’t dishonor our dead by implying that the Commander-in-Chief lied to start this war, or that Dick Cheney did it for oil, or Karl Rove for kicks.

Don’t spoil our war, like you spoiled George’s vacation. Let him get on with his life, even if his dead soldiers have no more life to get on with.

Them’s the breaks!

  • I’d say, its heavy duty satire, done in a light way, good on you.
    A feather can often knock down a brick wall, quicker than a tank.
    So keep that quill sharpened.

  • My last trace to love America because of people like you your Bush hater!

    • I do not hate George Bush. (I know he from the New England Aristocracy loves playing at being a cowboy on a converted pig farm, and prefers photographs with his chain saw.)

      Its the US foreign policies of invading countries under various pretexts and outright lies I find troubling. Manifest Destiny and bringing democracy to the world may sound noble but its also pure unadulterated nonsense.

      George is simply a messenger boy and not a very articulate one at that. He is not a broken record, just a recorded message that has become dull, desperate and delusional.

      Colin Powell spelled out the Pottery Barn Rules to him, " If you break it , you buy it". As a military man and Sec. of State, he offered good advise. ( Of course after his UN performance on Iraq and retirement, he has been lying low, since every one of his irrefutable proofs have evaporated like Saddam’s WMD.)

      Iraq is now almost totally broken, so can we expect George, Dick, Donald, Condi and crew to throw in a few coins to assist in paying for this catastrophic waste of billions of dollars.?

      No, I expect the American people will continue to pay as their living standards decline, and the debt mounts for children and grandchildren.

      In the meantime, friendly hand picked crowds, slogans, flags and bumper stickers will not get
      George W Bush the legacy he so desires as Commander in Chief of this "The New American Century".

      Hes going to end up like his failed oil business adventures, or ripping the tax payer off to build a stadium for his former baseball team after which he turned a profit, always at some one else’s expensive, and with that famous grin

      The real tragedy is the loss of human lives for which no amount of money will suffice, that is what he must finally account for, to the Iraqi and American people and of course Jesus.

      I don’t believe history will be impressed with the 43 president.

    • Bush is just a man....he has taken up drinking again, and snorting coke. The pressure of lying and killing and stealing has gotten to be too much for him, so he has reverted to his old pastimes. You can see it in his face, the way he grinds his jaws and the monumentally stupid things he says, falling off his bicycle several times etc. are all indications of his worsening addictions. Have pity on him, he probably really does believe in God; wonder what he intends to tell him about the killing, stealing and lying, the squandering of the resources and the treachery? What will God say to him about using Jesus’s name to do his dirty work?

    • Your incoherent sentence leaves me puzzled. What is your "last trace?" and how does your "last trace" make you love America. And why is loving America, because of me, my Bush hater, have anything in common with last trace? Hating Bush and LOving America are closely connected because that Bush fellow intends to change the democracy you say you love with a semi-fascist form of theocracy in which Jerry Falwell and that murderous Pat Robertson will take control of all your destiny, your lives, your reading matter, your recreation and take America back to the 15th Century when the Church reigned supreme. Those were the days when people were murdered by Church dogma, burned at stake or strangled. Those were the days when everyone had to kneel in the street when a priest bearing the host would pass by. Those were the days of the Inquisition when merely saying the wrong words would get you put on the rack and tortured until your guts came out.
      Of course, if this is your last trace, and you relish domination of vile creatures like the televangelists and want them to rule your life, then I do object. But if you really didn’t know that Bush lied to the entire nation, and still lies daily, then there is no hope for the nation.

    • Peter, commendations for patience in attempting to sort out that most incoherent sentence.
      The impossible challenge may be, that its from a brain that had been deprived of oxygen.
      Lets hope for his/her sake its only a temporary condition.

    • The "Flocks" of faithful never question the schzophrenic beliefs of the leaders, they say Jesus said to love one another, but the church has "discovered" that in the mind of Jesus he really meant its okay to kill those you don’t see eye to eye with politically, or economically, or if you want their resorces, or if their religion is not identical in every detail, or if you need their resources, and quite a few other exceptions. The bible has been re-written many many times over the last 2,000 years, it can be changed to fit the whims of the leaders (aparentally God made a bunch of errors in the original instructions and the church leaders had to make the corrections to God’s flawed work). All of the practiced religions view women as brainless worthless work animals and breeding machines. If they could turn women’s work over to real robots, they wouldn’t even have acknowledge them, so why do women want to belong to these religions?

    • him there must be frum teeeexas!

    • because these "religions" recognize the high maintenance women go through on a daily routine, being things such as manicures, make-up routines,breast augmentation, being really pretty, defending dubya, etc. etc...,

    • The question is: Why would any woman want to belong to a religion? The logic (if there is any) would be like a black person wanting to belong to the Klu Klux Klan. Why?

  • No truer words have EVER been spoken. Excellent article!! I totally agree with every word written here. Every single word.
