Getting Away with Murder, Iranian Style…

It was once said that regional stability in the Middle East was impossible as long as Saddam Hussein was in power in Iraq. For me, given events, this was manifestly true. Faced with the situation we acted and acted d…

The only way al-Maliki is going to get control of Iraq is through brutality. That’s how Saddam controlled Iraq. Can you think of any Arab country that isn’t controlled through brutality?

al-Maliki is being forced to run Iraq by American standards and that doesn’t work in the Middle East. Those people only respect strength and brutality; they detest political correctness and “playing nice”. Their religion controls every aspect of their lives and it’s a religion of brutality. The sooner we learn that, the better off we’ll be.

Back off from Iraqi politics and let them do what they need to in order to get control of their country. Provide necessary muscle when called upon but look the other way when things don’t go by American standards.

Jimmy K, you are Da Man!!

Bush’s OWN words come back to haunt him, and show once again what a total idiot the man is, and how his running off at the mouth has only served to complicate and exacerbate this situation even more…

I learned, many years ago, if you’re going to beat the crap out of an enemy you don’t tell him, “OK tomorrow at lunch I’m dragging your ass out behind the gym and I’m gonna stomp your ass into a mud puddle…”, you NEVER tell em you’re going to do it, you DO IT and then tell the survivors that you were the one and if you hear so much as on ‘peep’ out of em you’ll take them out too…

But Bush won’t do that, he still thinks he’s a school yard bully and his swagger is all he needs…

Wrong… This is a real fight George, and people have to die, a lot of people, preferably ALL Muslims…

Sept. 20, 2001, address to Congress:

“This war will not be like the war against Iraq a decade ago, with a decisive liberation of territory and a swift conclusion.

Americans should not expect one battle, but a lengthy campaign, unlike any other we have ever seen.

And we will pursue nations that provide aid or safe haven to terrorism.

Every nation, in every region, now has a decision to make. Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists.

From this day forward, any nation that continues to harbor or support terrorism will be regarded by the United States as a hostile regime.”

But…But…. There are moderate Muslims in Iran, how can we attack them…..Sarcasm

If I was running a country that opposed the USA way, I would be licking my chops right now, Bush has been caught with his pants down AGAIN, he talks too much, he says too little and he hasn’t got the balls too do what needs to be done. A Perfect President, for SOME OTHER COUNTRY.. Not this one.

It takes alot to take the title of Worst President ever from Jimmy Carter and I’m afraid Bush has done it.

Bush said it was HARD WORK, well I guess his HARD WORK has paid off.

Such a shame, he could have been the Best Ever, what a fool.

BZ,

I’ve got to disagree with you on this one. I would vote for a monkey before I will ever vote for a Bush again.

Fred,
You couldn’t have been more on point than you have with this article.
I know the Bush-bots must be on their knees weeping at your words but so what…you and Gunz and BZ are absolutely correct. Why don’t our leaders have either the common sense or cahones to do the job they were elected to do?
Dang we are going right down the toilet and Pelosi and Reid are holding the handle in the flush mode….sigh.

Bush continues to confound me. But I would STILL pick President Bush over ANY Demorat extant. Yes, I am cognizant of the fact that this is another equation that makes no sense, along with his so-called stance on immigration. But as I wrote earlier this week, more and more the opposite sides of the aisle are becoming one and the same. And more and more it shall be incumbent upon THE PEOPLE — as it should be — to stand up and demand common sense.

Be clear and understand: the forces rallying against us, you and me, Texas Fred, are very strong. VERY strong. We must be strident, resolute, and even STRONGER.

concur. Many of us thought that we were invading the wrong country when we went in to Iraq..probably would have been better off to have made a deal with Saddam and went into Iran instead..that is where most of the problems have originated from the time they took over the Embassy until now. Iran has been at war with the USA for nearly three decades..the American public is just too gotdam blind to understand that.
