"Bush open to shifting US military command to Liberia"
"by Reuters | February 16, 2008
WASHINGTON - President Bush said yesterday that the possible shift of the US military command for Africa to the continent from its current home in Germany will be among the issues on the agenda as he meets with leaders of five African countries.
Bush yesterday departed for a six-day trip to Africa to highlight one of the few bright spots in his foreign policy agenda, assistance to HIV/AIDS victims, and helping developing businesses. He will visit Tanzania, Ghana, Benin, Liberia, and Rwanda.
The conflicts in Darfur and Kenya also will be on the agenda, as well as lobbying from African leaders on where to locate the new US Africa Command headquarters, known as Africom, primary mission of which will be to work with African militaries.
That's the REAL REASON he is going!
Like this mass-murderer really cares about AIDS!
So tired of the stink fuck AmeriKan press making excuses for this guy!
"If there is going to be a physical presence on the continent of Africa in the form of a headquarters . . . obviously we would seriously consider Liberia," Bush said in an interview with foreign reporters.
In the interview, Bush also said there was hope for a political solution in Kenya, which has been wracked with violence after a disputed election. Bush has asked Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to go to Kenya with a message that there must be a full return to democracy, and she will be in Nairobi on Monday.
The US attention on Africa has been growing amid concerns that countries there could become havens for militants seeking to base operations and plan attacks on the United States.
They just keep,pushing lies, and I'm tired of it!
You've lost me because of all the lies, shit press!!!
"Africom is a brand new concept aimed at strengthening nations' capacities to deal with trafficking or terror, but also to help nations develop forces capable of doing the peacekeeping that unfortunately too often is needed on the continent," Bush said."
Now get ready to reach for your barf bag!
You will need it by the time you get to the end of this next piece:
"
Sigh!
Not why he is going!
The president and his wife, Laura, landed in the West African nation of Benin on a muggy day, walking off Air Force One onto a red carpet. He was greeted by a military salute by troops in camouflage uniforms and berets. Their stop here was being followed by visits to Tanzania, Rwanda, Ghana and Liberia.
With backing from Congress, Bush is behind an emergency HIV/AIDS response that is the largest in history to target an infectious disease. He is now trying to sharply increase that response, from the already committed $15 billion, to another $30 billion to be spent over the next five years.
Well, considering that the U.S. CREATED the AIDS virus, that is the least we can do, right?
"I couldn't live with myself if I didn't develop an effective strategy and call upon the American people to help," Bush said in a discussion with reporters at the White House on Thursday.
This man makes me sick, readers.
Well, WE CAN ALL LIVE WITHOUT YOU, shitbag!
And while I am all for helping sick Africans, when are we Americans going to get anything from you, shit bag?
Nothing but foreign aid and war spending from this guy!
Bush, nearing the end of a presidency dominated by the war in Iraq, is proud of the administration's humanitarian foreign policy.
Oh, God, the man has no idea what he has done!
This man is MENTALLY-DERANGED, folks!!!!
He is PROUD of MASS-MURDER and TORTURE!!!!
He often talks about how many Americans are unaware of their own generosity abroad, and he makes a point to publicize the country's giving nature. The president is also behind a major effort to reduce malaria, which is a major killer of young children in Africa.
"When you see human suffering, it's based upon something that affects your heart," Bush said. "And so that's why I've made the decisions I've made."
I'm gonna puke, readers!
This is an administration hand-out masquerading as "news," isn't it?
And look at Bush TALK DOWN to US AGAIN!
Well, FUCK YOU, shitter!!!
I'm SMARTER than you and your cocaine- and alcohol-addled brain, so DON'T TALK DOWN TO ME!!!!!!
Bush said that easing poverty in Africa would undercut the efforts of terrorists to recruit new members. "If there's hopelessness, they have a better chance to recruit," the president said.
Then explain the "wealthy" bin Laden, jackass!
Bush covered a range of other topics with the reporters.
Among them:
_He expressed frustration at the plodding deployment of a joint African Union-United Nations peacekeeping mission in Sudan's Darfur region. Only about 9,000 of an authorized 26,000 troops and police have arrived. Conflict in the region has led the killings of more than 200,000 people over nearly five years, and has driven 2.5 million from their homes. Bush pointed blame at both the Sudanese government and at other nations for not supplying enough pressure.
_Bush said no decisions are imminent about Africom, the new Africa Command that is based in Stuttgart, Germany. Liberia has publicly offered to host a headquarters, while other African nations have reservations about where the command would be based and whether it would give the U.S. too much influence.
The president said the command will not be a traditional military-style command, and will integrate a State Department component. "We're in the process of making sure we understand what that integration means, and then evaluating if and where facilities will be built. It's on my radar screen," Bush said.
Like Iran is, right?
_Bush acknowledged that Zimbabwe has only gotten worse since his visit to Africa in 2003. President Robert Mugabe has become increasingly authoritarian, spearheading media control and takeovers of white-owned farms. Bush described him in a speech Thursday as a discredited dictator who "presides over food shortages, staggering inflation, and harsh repression." In the interview, Bush said flatly: "Mr. Mugabe has ruined a country."
Good Christ!!!!
And just WTF do you think YOU have done to America, asshole?
Good Lord, readers!!!!
After reading this shit, I will NEVER APOLOGIZE for my LEGITIMATE CRITICISMS no matter how profane and foul!!!
George W. Bush is a MENTALLY-DERANGED MADMAN who is UNFIT for office and SHOULD BE REMOVED!!!!!!!!!!!!
Investigate - Impeach - Indict - Imprison, dammit!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The whole damn administration!!!!!
Fucking sick of these war-mongering mass-murderers and I just can't take another day, readers!
And what SHIT COVERAGE from AmeriKa's Zionist-controlled MSM, huh?
