Oh he’ll probably bomb Iran as a gift for his friends before he leaves office.
I love the quote from Bush comparing himself to Churchill ;
“seemed like a Texan to me. He wasn’t afraid of public-opinion polls. . . . He charged ahead, and the world is better for it.”
what a wanker.
He should have added, “Other than that, we have absolutely nothing in common, even though in my deluded pea brain I think I’m glorious and noble and can give great speeches. But when I really think about it, unlike Churchill, I can barely speak. Anything longer than two sylables confuses me. I am dim witted (yet cunning) and was a cheerleader in College – now what kind of world leader was a cheerleader in fucking college. Don’t let me try and fool you that it was a way of meeting girls – I really don’t like girls….
America should be bombing israel rather than Iran.
Addamo
Amusr us with your usual geopolitical genius and tell us why the U.S. should be bombing Israel?
Because it’s a Terror State and we are in a “War on Terror?”
The comparison to Churchill isn’t totally off the wall. Winnie’s hands were also stained with Iraqi blood, and by ordering the RAF to use chemical weapons against Iraqis fighting for freedom from foreign (British) rule he was as much a war criminal as Bush is!
Ian
I agree with you.
Ex RAF officers (now dead but still anonymous) have actually admitted dropping mustard gas (under Churchill’s influence) on the Iraqis. Word of mouth – the Brits apparently destroyed any written records.
Conventional wisdom was they were going to do it but pulled back from it for humanitarian reasons. But they actually did it in the early 1920s.

They’re only Arabs. Does anybody care?
Hello Viva and eveyone esle,
I don’t know who the hell is using my name to post these rediculous messages by the mesage:
Was most certainly NOT posted by me. I would never advocate the bombing of Israel or any other country.
Pretty slimy I reckon. I am not surprised.
