Cheney calls Iraq " Remarkable Success Story"

Wars and conflicts International Governments USA

On the Pentagon’s own website , Vice President Cheney was quoted as telling Tony Snow of Fox News that Iraq has become ,in his words, " a remarkable success story."

A country in ruins , hundreds of thousands dead , US journalists and diplomats billeted behind their Maginot Line , the so called Green Zone, a country polluted with depleted uranium , and the President of Vice regales in his "triumph".

He furthermore is touting yet more forgeries created by the Pentagon’s Office of Special Plans as "proof" that Saddam and Osama Bin Laden were bosom buddies. Pathetic to the core.

This is a President of Vice who authorised the surveillance of the Official National Security Council by members of his shadow NSC .

This allegation was made by Colin Powell’s former Chief of Staff , Col. Lawrence Wilkerson (Ret.).

The US mainstream media have spiked the story .

God , deliver us !

  • Think for a moment as ot what this says about White America.

    • Keep yer racist crap to yerself, Bigot.

    • Hehe... Made you think!!!

      Now think again of the thought you had when you read my reply. Sit in a quiet place. Release the tension in your body. Keep thinking of your first thought when you read my reply. Concentrate only on your first thought. See where it leads. Look how prevasive "Cheney-type-thinking" and realize how common the belief is in America.

    • a tribute to comrade 4...84; incoherent, arrogant, uneducated [can’t spell—prevasive?]: entirely a monument to politically correct public education. Simple linear logic is beyond him but his sense of self esteem tops the charts.

    • The war may be a lost cause but its a winner for Halliburton stock and yearly payout for the VEEP, WMD, freedom and forget the rest, what counts is his bottom line..keeping the batteries up to date in the pacemaker and checking the "soul" of his feet for bloating in addition to his heart.

    • That may or may not be true, but I wonder why everyone on the left always flogs Halliburton, but where the French, German And Austrian corporations that made tens of billions off the Iraqi/UN oil for food scam [while Iraqi citizens were being murdered and starved] all I hear is resounding silence.....This practice damages the credibility of the left and makes them seem more partisan and hypocritical than anything else..........It also exposes the mercenary heart of the left, in that much of the profit from "oil for food" went to finance Europe’s cradle to grave welfare state.

      Thank you for the compliment. And english is my second language, so you will forgive me for my "not-absolute-perfect" spellings.

      Hehe... There are far, far more White Americans who think and like and believe Cheney then there are otherwise. Mark my words, the U.S. will only level Iraq when the oil runs out and not a moment sooner. All of the spin is easily taken in by almost all White Americans. The administration will continue the policies of this administration — no matter the party affliations.

      In the meantime, they (your leadership) are working hard to make the Arabs/Muslims as the next boogyman for this and future centuries.

    • 69/94 The obvious and simple answer to your question assuming you’ve done a little reading of history over the past 15 years is that the Germans, French and others did not invade then destroy then capitalize on their destruction by profiting on supposedly rebuilding the first demolition exercise.
      First you make money (off the US taxpayer) coming and then going...that’s the way the Mafia got started during prohibition....great stuff if you can get it...Capone and the Veep when they meet in future should have fun sharing notes..

      cheers, jt
