*War Continues for "Bush’s Ego"? My Rear End!*
Cathy Garger
With all due respect, I can not stand the Paul Craig Roberts "limited hangout" that posits that we are still in Iraq (and Afghanistan for that matter) due to One Man’s Ego. Nor can I stand the implication that there was any "mistake" at all about Iraq (or Afghanistan, while we’re at it). The United States wanted to get into Iraq and Afghanistan and control their oil resources long before 9/11 even happened.
Let’s state the facts as they exist, shall we? All of the United States Senate and all but 23 of the US House of Representatives lawmakers (over 400 of them) just voted another Mega-Billion War Funding Authorization Act into law in October. Congress is fully *into* war...and not just this one President, either.
Regardless of what the phony liberal writers are trying to tell the US and the rest of the world? Know that this is *not* Bush’s war. This is a war fully supported by almost ALL of Congress - the very same individuals who are supposed to "represent" the American people. But what has happened in the United States is that the federal government has been completely, totally HIJACKED by corporate backers and globalist leaders who "pull America’s strings" in ways too hideous to even fathom.
We in the US are under a form of authoritarian control - almost akin to a dictatorship - of a full-fledged fascist state and *not* a democracy no matter what the talking puppet heads in Washington, DC say. The lawmakers are no longer representing the good Americans I know. A full SIXTY NINE percent (69%) of Americans polled recently in a Harris Poll stated that they want to remove the troops from Iraq!
http://www.harrisinteractive.com/harris_poll/index.asp?PID=711 . That means more than TWO THIRDS of America wants OUT of war!
And, on top of that? Only a tiny minority, sixteen percent (16%) believe the US government’s official story about 9/11
http://www.angus-reid.com/polls/index.cfm/fuseaction/viewItem/itemID/13469 . Almost all Americans know that we have been lied to about the murder of 2,800 of our own on 9/11 plus thousands more now who are dead and dying, due to the toxicity at the World Trade Center in New York. Most Americans fully realize that something extremely under-handed took place on 9/11 in order to get us into wars everlasting. The full exterminating power of the most lethal military in the world is aimed at the good people of the Middle East, who have done nothing whatsoever to harm us here.
So what the US sold-out mainstream media is *not* telling you is that most Americans are SICK over what was orchestrated by some in power here... in order to create a dark-skinned Muslim/Arab so-called "terrorist" or "evil doing" enemy somewhere "over there" in order to justify invasions and occupations, and the theft of resources, overseas.
Most of America fell for the false flag attack of 9/11, initially. Now, however, the people have started waking up, Big Time, and know that an enemy must always be created before the US can wage war against an innocent nation. Or, with the rhetoric against other nations supposedly belonging to some "axis of evil", there are several more nations on the US war-makers’ "wish list" - or shall I say "hit list?"
No, this is not all about a President Gone Mad. This is about an entire fascist Legislative branch - and not simply just the Executive branch - under the control of some nameless, faceless psychopaths who truly wish to control the world’s resources.
The last US Senator to vehemently oppose the Iraq War - even before it started - was Senator Paul Wellstone, whose aircraft "mysteriously" suffered an accident with lies told after the crash about weather conditions. It was a death threat warning to all of Congress - of this many of us have no doubt.
The US government is not being led by one man with an ego who is worried about a "mistake". Make no mistake about this... Those who are earning MEGA-profits in Iraq and Afghanistan know exactly, precisely what they are doing.
And what can American citizens do? We voted the current Republican Congress out of power in November. But now, most of the new legislators coming into power are in no hurry to leave these wars either. In effect, for all intents and purposes, we seem to have only one political party in America, and it is all about making a buck, regardless of how many they have to kill to do so. American or Iraqi, it matters not.
Now, onto another matter, sadly, the 655,000 figure of dead Iraqis http://www.guardian.co.uk/Iraq/Story/0,,1892888,00.html does not even paint the true picture of Made In the US Death, because the United States and other "coalition forces" i.e., the UK and few others, use such a great deal of uranium in their guns, tanks, and bombs in both Afghanistan and Iraq.
These uranium munitions are blown to smithereens, are microscopic and travel even thousands of miles through the air. One of the forms of uranium munitions (mistakenly called "Depleted" Uranium) has a Total Life of 45 billion years. So, what this means is that the radioactivity is in the Middle East, quite literally forever, and will kill millions of people over time. http://tinyurl.com/pn5or or

I am not sure what, exactly, will cause the psychopaths in power in the US, UK, and Israel to stop this radioactive madness. We can get rid of the few who hold power in the Executive office, but still, those who are the silent backers of this war-business profiteering will only create new puppets to do their bidding. They have worked up to this state of war-making and war-profiteering for quite some time.
It is incumbent upon the REST of the world to say NO to the US profiteers - whether the world must do it by economic means; and, even if, very sadly, the American public will suffer.
The US, admittedly, has made other nations suffer through economic sanctions - even in fairly recent history. The real and powerful evil-doers who hold the power in the US, UK, and Israel are, unfortunately, only going to "listen to" economic hardship. Word has it that many other nations are either not trading in the US dollar, are boycotting US goods, products, and services, and/or are doing other things that will bring this economy to a grinding halt.
Maybe if Eurasia finds out that the US, UK, and Israel have rendered much of Eurasia as a poisonous, radioactive zone forevermore... they will find a way to stop those who are using these genocidal weapons upon the innocent citizens of the world. Uranium munitions fit the criteria for international war crimes against humanity.

It is at times like this that one is almost too sad to have to state the nation in which one resides. Oh, if only the rest of the world knew how truly sorry MOST Americans are - and how the world needs to help figure out how to get this radioactive killing by the psychopaths responsible ... to stop.

How Many More Will Die For Bush’s Ego?
Are the American people, Congress, and the American Establishment going to let the death toll continue to mount day by day
for the two more years it takes for Bush to become history?
By Paul Craig Roberts
12/09/06 "Information Clearing House" — — Last July in response to Bush-the-Evil’ s enabling of Israel ’s gratuitous slaughter of thousands of Lebanese civilians and destruction of the country’s infrastructure, I wrote about “the shame of being an American.” With the ongoing slaughter of our troops and Iraqi civilians in Bush’s war in Iraq , it is time to revisit that theme.
As the Iraqi civil war (euphemistically termed “sectarian violence”) intensifies, both US and Iraqi casualties have sharply increased. Thirty-five US troops have been killed in the first week of December. Iraqis are dying at each other’s hands at about 100 per day, with many more wounded by bombs.
Iraqi civilians continue to suffer at the hands of the US military, with the latest news being a US air strike that wiped out two families totaling 32 people.
The report from the bipartisan Iraq Study Group has made it plain as day that the US is accomplishing nothing in Iraq except the destabilization of the entire Middle East . As Middle East expert Anthony Sullivan writes in The National Interest, the ISG report “constitutes a massive repudiation of the policy of the Bush Administration.” The war is lost and cannot be retrieved militarily. “Staying the course” is the path of total folly.
Yet, the White House Moron says that it is better for 100 US troops and 3,000 Iraqi civilians to die every month than for him to admit that he is wrong.

isn’t it time to send the 109th congress along with every member of the bush administration to
Iraq with a 1 way ticket so they can enjoy their parade and flowers.send all media that reported
the same parroting bush message too.

It’s okay folks. They probably think that it is too damning of the psychos in power in the US. Maybe I was not polite enough to our War Makers? I don’t know... We are killing scores of innocents and it is sometimes too sad to bear. It is very hard to write nice, clean, "journalistic" articles. Sure, I could report "just the facts, Ma’am"... but somehow, people must find out the real truth - ALL of it. Who else is going to tell people? Our government won’t, our media won’t, our controlled opposition/phony infiltrated anti-war/peace & social justice-type groups won’t tell the whole truth. Folks, this is all up to us - just you and me, regular people.

What do you mean the "psychos in power"?
Cathy, they come from your community. They come from your race and nation.
They are you and you are them.
If it weren’t for your subconciousness’ approval of them they would not have been elevated to the leadership role.
Sit and think!!!
Try to clear your mind (I know I ask the impossible) but think of what I just said and see if you are given an answer.
Stop blaming "them" and blame yourself... It is the only way to correct the world around you. Blame yourself — first, last and always.

Displaced uranium (DU) has a half-life of 4.5 billion years, not 45 billion years. Which does not make any difference, actually. Either is essentially forever.

"D" stands for "DEPLETED," not "Displaced."
