Iraq Interupted.

People are sitting in front of their T.V.s tonight, Republicans and Democrats alike, watching newscast after newscast of how poorly the war in Iraq is going. I’m sure many nights have gone by where they thought to themselves, how the hell did we get into all this? Well, let’s start back from the begining shall we? It seems that many people would love to blame Bill Clinton. Some people say it’s because of the problems he created during his presidency that has us in this trouble that our fearless leader is trying to get us out of right now - so, dammit, lets vote for George W. again, keep him in office so he can finish the job he started. Well, before you spit in Bill’s eye lets not forget that Ronald Reagan was the genius that sold S.C.U.D. missles to Saddam in the first damn place, giving Hussein a fighting chance against our armed forces, which is why the U.S. government had to waste another 50 million dollars to develop the Patriot missle so we would have a fighting chance during the Gulf war.

Nobody listened to Bill Clinton in his last address to North America, before George W. took office, when he said Bush would cost America to pay a heavy price. He warned America that Bush’s foreign policy was garbage - that Bush would thoughtlessly remove  the current U.S. ambassador to North Korea, which would be an insult to the koreans. Clinton knew Bush was incompetant from the get-go but our conservative, NASCAR-loving, NRA-supporting, crude oil-drinking, fossil fuel-burning, upper tax bracket republican citizens were determined to have their revenge.

Bill Clinton was quite possibly one of the best presidents North America has ever seen or will probably ever see again. But Clinton was hated because he interacted too much with minorities. Clinton put more black people in positions of authority than any other president in the history of the United States - that was his demise. Millions of dollars went into trying to destroy President Clinton. Enter Office of the Independent Counsel, Kenneth Starr, stage right.

Nearly every politician in the history of the United States has committed acts of everything from adultry to cross dressing to driving while intoxicated to murder yet Kenneth Starr put  every moral fiber of his being into flushing Clinton down the toilet just because he got a blowjob. There’s an old saying my great grandma used to use. She said: “If you work hard at digging someone else’s grave you better dig one for yourself.” Kenneth Starr is the perfect example of having to dig the proverbial two graves.

Starr was accused of doing the bidding of Richard Mellon Scaife, who had funded a position  for Starr at Pepperdine University. Most importantly, Starr’s office was accused of leaking grand jury testimony in violation of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure  based in part on editor Stephen Brill’s interview with Starr himself. Acting on motions of Clinton defense attorneys, US District Court Judge Norma Halloway Johnson ordered an investigation into whether Starr’s office had improperly leaked grand jury information (July 1998). She further authorized President Clinton’s lawyers to conduct the investigation, by subpoenaing and questioning Starr and members of his staff under oath.

The federal appeals court in Washington reversed Judge Johnson’s decision and said that any investigation would have to be conducted by a court-appointed Special Master, not by President Clinton’s lawyers. Starr’s office maintained that the information alleged to have been leaked was not uniquely available to it, but was also possessed by Clinton’s lawyers.  After an investigation, a Special Master concluded that no evidence indicated that Starr’s office had unlawfully leaked grand jury information. During the leak investigation, however, Charles Bakaly, spokesman for Starr’s office, resigned (March 11, 1999). He was later charged with having signed a false affidavit, but acquitted at trial (Oct. 6, 2000). Joe Conason and Gene Lyons maintain that the Starr office systematically leaked grand jury information to the press. Starr expressed regret for ever having asked the Justice Department to oversee the Lewinsky investigation, saying “the most fundamental thing that could have been done differently” would have been for somebody else to have investigated the matter.

Just as Clinton had predicted, George W. Bush set in motion the begining of the end: Bush didn’t do one damn thing during his first 100 days in office but lollygag around - chop down trees and play golf at his ranch in Texas. Meanwhile, the terrorists were relocating to South Florida and carrying out plans for the future 9/11 attack. While Bush continued on his pointless campain to greese palms by making public appearances in various small towns in America, the terrorists were learning how to fly in crop dusters in South Florida. The FBI and the CIA were conducting a series of survalences on the terrorists in South Florida but they were instructed to do nothing.

Let’s look at this little ordeal a little closer shall we? The FBI and CIA did not take any action toward the terrorists even though they both had intell that would lead them to believe the terrorists would be a possible threat because the terrorists weren’t on Bush’s agenda. More importantly, Osama Bin Laden wasn’t on Bush’s agenda. Why? Because, first of all, being the sociopath that George W. is, his primary focus was to take down Saddam. He didn’t count on Osama being a problem because the Bush family as well as Dick Cheney had already been doing business with the Bin Laden family for years. Despite the Bush administration getting repeated warnings of a possible attack on U.S. soil, arrogance led Bush to believe Osama wouldn’t have the balls to knock on the U.S.A.’s back door - but they did, hence the attack of 9/11. And guess where, Slick Willie, Bill Clinton was? Chillin’ in Austrailia. Convenient ain’t it? And what do you think the look was on his face? Look above.

Common sense would tell you that after the World Trade Center fell the Bush administration would act on the intell they already had and scoop up Bin Laden and every single individual that ever had anything to do with the Bin Laden family from his grandmama all the way down to the dude that supplied Osama with the manure he needed to grow his exotic flowers in his greenhouse. But nothing happened. Instead, the Bin Laden family was escorted to the nearest airport where they were allowed to leave U.S. soil. 9/11 was Bush’s perfect scapegoat to execute false flag and wage war on Iraq. False flag operations are covert operations conducted by governments, corporations, or other organizations, which are designed to appear as if they are being carried out by other entities.

 In 2002, George W.’s state of the union speech, he identifies Iraq along with Iran and North Korea as an “axis of evil.” He vows that the U.S. “will not permit the world’s most dangerous regimes to threaten us with the world’s most destructive weapons.” But wait a minute. What the hell does Iraq have to do with 9/11? What does Iraq have to do with Osama Bin Laden - the man fingered to be the orchestrator of the 9/11 attacks? Ooooooooooh. I see. Saddam allegedly is one of the primary sources of funding for Al Qaeda. Oh, wait, Saddam must have weaponized uranium so they can finish the job and bomb the rest of the major cities in North America. Yeah, that sounds right - right? Wrong. Not only did the Sept. 11 commission report that it found no “collaborative relationship” between Iraq and al Qaeda, challenging one of the Bush administration’s main justifications for the war in Iraq, they also concluded that there were no weapons of mass destruction, ole’ honest George W. lied about WMD:  

“We found the weapons of mass destruction. We found biological laboratories. You remember when Colin Powell stood up in front of the world, and he said, Iraq has got laboratories, mobile labs to build biological weapons. They’re illegal. They’re against the United Nations resolutions, and we’ve so far discovered two. And we’ll find more weapons as time goes on. But for those who say we haven’t found the banned manufacturing devices or banned weapons, they’re wrong, we found them.”   - President George W. Bush

But in actuality it was concluded that the biological laboratories Bush claimed was used to produce biological weapons  were most likely used to produce hydrogen for artillery weather balloons.

Meanwhile, even as George W. builds up a reason to wage war on Iraq, Osama Bin Laden continued to run free.  The CIA can drop a missle on a gnat sucking blood off the hump of a camel in the middle of the Sahara Desert but they can’t find find Osama Bin Laden.  
 

Our fearless leader, George W., declared war on Iraq even though he didn’t have the intell, the funding or the backing of many of the other allied forces. It seems that in his mad rush to go after Iraq he forgot what happened to U.S. troops in Somalia during the battle of Mogadishu. Perhaps Condoleezza  should have given Bush a copy of the DVD ‘Black Hawk Down.’  Maybe then he would have realized you don’t wage a war on a people that have little or no regard for their own lives let alone the lives of others. You don’t wage war with people that are born and bred for the sole purpose of killing. As long as their is a breath in their lungs and a weapon in their hand - be it a S.A.M., a grenade launcher, an AK-47 or a damn rock, they will kick your ass until they rape, kill, and destroy everyone and everything. Maybe George W. should have had a father son talk with his daddy. 

So why is it that the most powerful country in the world is losing the war with Iraq> There was a reason why George W.’s daddy left Iraq alone. First of all, the literacy rate in Iraq is a whopping 40%, which means Iraqi citizens can easily be manipulated into believing anyone, especially, America, is evil. Secondly, terrorists don’t fight conventional wars. They don’t recognize the Geneva Convention but they sure as hell will expect everyone else, particularly, the U.S. to abide by the Geneva Convention. The biggest mistake any president could ever make in the history of man would be to declare war on terrorism. You can declare war on druglords. You can declare war on Al Qaeda. You can declare war on Osama Bin Laden. You can declare war on Saddam Hussein. Hell, you can declare war on the entire Middle East if you want but you cannot declare war on terrorism. There is no customer complaint building for terrorism. There is no one location where all terrorists congregate. The only way you can end terrorism is through genocide. Plain and simple.

We are losing the war on Iraq because Bush didn’t do the job right the first time. Instead of listening to his generals and allowing time for American and allied armed forces to properly prepare for a full scale war, Bush pushed on with this learn-as-you-go hillbilly strategy that cost us over 3000 lives and 350 billion dollars. And just think, only a few years ago people had the gall to be pissed at Bill Clinton because he got a blowjob. Go ahead, go back to the top of this blog and take another look at Clinton’s picture. The war had already been waged. Why half ass the job and have the arrogance to pretend like it’s all over? This ain’t no damn movie, it’s a war.

Instead of wasting taxpayers money to grandstand - landing a jet fighter on a carrier where he declared an end to all major operations in Iraq, Bush should have continued with a massive assault and completely cleaned out any and all opposition in Iraq at one time and secure its borders while they had them on the run. That would have been the single best move to make but that couldn’t be done. Why? Because Bush lacked the funding, the intell, the logistics, the equipment, supplies, and the necessary numbers of ground troops to execute such a large scale mission quickly and efficiently. The mission was doomed from the begining as far as the ground war is concerned. Without the necessary intell, the ground forces could not effectively manuever over the terrain within an effective time. Without the proper intell they couldn’t  efficiently eliminate the opposition they encountered along the way before reaching Iraq. Without the necessary equipment and supplies they couldn’t effectively sustain the damage and casualities they encountered as they made their trek to Iraq. At one point the mission was close to being aborted because vital supply lines were dangerously weakened. By today’s standards with the level of preparedness and technology that is accessible to the United States Armed Forces that is unacceptable by any stretch of the imagination.

Superiority wasn’t the issue. With the type of opposition the armed forces was facing we could have easily wiped them out if we could have done it quickly and followed through to the end. But as the war is now, with troops literally standing around waiting to get picked off instead of actively eliminating insurgents we are fighting the war on their terms.

Okay, so Saddam Hussein’s sons, Uday and Qusay Hussein, die in a firefight in a Mosul palace. So, Iraq’s deposed leader Saddam Hussein is captured by American troops. So what? Do you think that’s going to stop insurgents from continuing their attack on U.S. troops? Hell no. There will be no surrendering. There will be no retreating. There will be no peace talks. They’re going to fight and they’re going to continue to fight until the last man is standing. There is no logical reason why Bush is having this surge in troops after the fact - talk about closing the barn door after the horse has already jumped the fence. He’s on his second term and he’s going to do whatever the hell he wants to do regardless of who opposes his alchoholic, sociopathic, underachieving ass decisions.
