Bush* FLIP-FLOPS Again re: Baathists in Power
"In a reversal of Washington's previous policy of excluding senior members of Saddam's Baathist regime from power, Jasim Mohamed Saleh said his new force would help police bring order and relieve a month-long siege that has cost hundreds of lives."

1. Ah, the Mother Of All Flip Flops
Edited on Fri Apr-30-04 11:27 AM by havocmom
One more attack tool taken from the junta. Now they cannot mention anyone changing their minds without facing the whirlwind of anger over this one.

So, Saddam's guys aren't evil do-ers? How did they tell the marines this and avoid them considering that it is a surrender?

edited to add: And Powell has the audacity to complain to Italians that their protests are sending the wrong signals to hostage taking terrorists? WTF?

4. Did the US put the SS back in control of German cities after WWII?
If these guys were as EVIL as Cheney made them out to be, why are they PUTTING THEM BACK IN POWER?!?

5. What in the friggity, friggin', F*CK are we DOING?!?!
We've spent a few hundred billion dollars, killed thousands of people and had hundreds of our own men and women killed in action, alienated much of the world community, pissed off a lot of Muslims, handed Al Qaeda a brand-new recruiting tool on a silver platter...

...just to put a BA'ATHIST BACK IN POWER IN IRAQ?!?!?!

It's official now: WE HAVE FAILED.

:grr:

7. and don't forget
negotiations have also started in Afghanistan to give amnesty to many of the Taliban. Weren't they also among the most evilest of the evil doers along with the Baathists?
