This blogger touches upon one reason I am fed up with the American people.
Where is the outrage over this viper's nest of liars?
There is plenty here on this blog!
"What the Hell is an 'Unpopular' War?"
".... Is it conceivable that that this illegal, immoral war, built on a mountain of lies and deceptions is merely unpopular? Is it possible that the death, the bloodshed, and the hundreds of billions of wasted dollars simply lack the general approval of most Americans?
.... Most Americans are not angry or outraged or horrified by what has happened to this country, to Iraq, to our soldiers, and to the Iraqi people. They have set aside the images of Abu Ghraib, and the rendition of detainees for torture in other countries. They are not indignant at the lies they were told, nor are they screaming for impeachment of those who told the lies. They want bygones to be bygones.
They just find the war ‘unpopular’ and inconvenient and unacceptable in some sense....
The deaths and the terrible injuries sustained by our military will help to make the war in Iraq a bit more unpopular for a few days. The deaths and the terrible injuries sustained by the Iraqi people will never make the news at all. Their deaths are neither popular nor unpopular, but simply are the cost of their liberation by George Bush and his neocon warmongers.
I suppose that the war would have risen in popularity had we killed many more Iraqis, bombed their nation to smithereens and declared a Pyrrhic victory on their ashes. I fear that the ‘unpopular’ aspect of the Iraq war is neither based on its breach of International Law nor its sinister motives.
I fear that Americans are simply tired of being on a treadmill, going nowhere at a terrible price. And so, the war with its chaos and ugliness goes on. Remember that George W. Bush, like his war, is referred to as ‘unpopular.’ The media never speak of him as incompetent, or criminal or amoral. One has to wonder what it would take for Americans to call the war and the President what they really are."
You'll find it on this blog, dude!!
He's a LYING, LAW-BREAKING, MASS-MURDERING WAR CRIMINAL!!!
