"Pentagon Peaceniks"
is not an oxymoron
Ok,
long quote, but worthy...
He [Saddam] has
not waged war against any other state, and there's no
evidence he's supported any terrorist groups or activities.
His own arsenal of missiles is virtually non-existent,
and he has no means to deliver the chemical and biological
weapons he probably does have. Since containment has worked
so far, they argue, what's the point of launching a full-scale
war?
Here, Sam Francis
echoes the sentiments of generals advising the president
not to invade Iraq. These men have left their warmongering
mindset and have entered a dangerous arena: reasoning
with a unreasonable president. Good luck!
Chasing tail
Robert
Scheer can hear "Here war, come here boy!" in the
president's attempt to "wag the dog."
This time, however, bombs may truly drop on an historic
city of three million who will be reclassified from
oppressed citizens to collateral damage.
Peace is war, Freedom is ...
Spoken like a true Party member, Big Brother Bush states:
"There's no telling how many wars it will take to
secure freedom in the homeland."
Supposedly Iraq is only the beginning of a wonderful emancipation
of the restraints that the foreign "evils" are imposing
upon Americans. All this for freedom.... oh yeah I forget
– slavery.
Saving face... with nukes
Congress
has been told that, upon invading Iraq, Saddam is
quite likely to bomb nearby Israel. Because their "credibility
would be hurt if they failed to react this time," it is
predicted that Israel will respond with "nuclear ground
bursts against every Iraqi city not already occupied by
US-led coalition forces." Yeah, that wouldn't invite more
Jihad....
The law according to Ashcroft
A recent
court case ordered the Justice Department to release
the names of the 9/11 detainees, to
the chagrin of John Ashcroft. Undoubtedly, he will
label this ruling a "terrorist act," eliminate
judicial review and declare himself sole interpreter of
the Constitution.
Mass murder justified?
August 6th – Hiroshima Day. Questions still remain concerning
this disastrous day. Some
analyses demonstrate necessity never existed and thus,
there is no justification for the hundreds of thousands
of dead and wounded. Moreover, the US has yet to apologize
for the horrific attack on civilians.
