Yup, but can ya put a price on your family? How much? Besides its a
war we didnt start..remember the African embassaies? The USS Cole,
the first Trade center attack? The Kobar Towers? The military
barracks in Lebanon?
Bill,
I'm a Brit, and my politics are what you guys call 'liberal'. A few
days ago I had dinner with 20 millionaire Republican Americans, an
experience that was entirely new to me -- but one that made me
'understand' your post above.
Those millionaire elite, graduates of the best schools in America,
were completely unaware of multiple things that we in Britain take
for granted. Not liberal spin, but well-documented FACTS.
Like how Iraq and Al-Quaeda are completely unrelated. (And how
Sadaam's Baathist party's religious position makes it an avowed
enemy of Bin Laden & Co). Like how Iraq had ZERO to do with the
horrors of 9-11. Like how almost ALL of the perpetrators of 9-11
were actually Saudi Arabians (can't say THAT out loud, since the
Saudis, never mind their horrific human rights record, are toeing
the American Oil Industry Line, right?). Like how, after anthrax
appeared in America after 9-11, the finger that automatically
pointed towards Sadaam was in truth due to an established
historical fact that remains almost ignored by your supposed
'liberal' press: that George Bush Snr, when President, over-ruled
America's democratic process and denied both Senate and Congress a
say when he personally allowed biological weapons, including large
quantities of anthrax, to be shipped to Iraq (for the simplistic
reason that Iraq was America's friend, and their enemy Iran was
not).
I sat a few evenings ago with some of America's white power-broking
elite. And I was astonished at their ignorance of the facts.
So maybe it's no surprise that 70 percent of Americans STILL think
that Sadaam had direct involvement in 9-11. Your lack of interest
in seeking the basic truths is shocking, and for that alone, the
rest of the world will pay for decades to come. In the blood of
innocent people. Congratulations, Republican America -- and
congratulations Tony Blair, for being America's Christian poodle in
this horror war crime.
At least here in the UK it looks like Blair's time is up. If only
in America the bells were tolling for Bush.
