Okay...so what Bush is saying is...

[Mythsaje]

We deliberately CHOSE Iraq as a battleground? A giant terrorist-trap?

And put how many innocent civilians in the middle?

Deliberately?

WHAT THE FUCK?

:banghead:

1. It WASN'T a terrorist hotbed until...

..bu$hit invaded and occupied it. FIFTEEN of the 18 9-11 hijaackers were from SAUDI ARABIA. NOT Iraq.

[Goldmund]

3. He actually said as much

He said "leaving Iraq now will turn it into the pre-war Afghanistan: a terrorist sanctuary", or something like that. Note: not the pre-war Iraq; the pre-war Afghanistan.

[Triana]

7. He turned it into that when he invaded it...

...I fail to see how having a bunch of Islamic Extremeists there now (when there were none there before) is somehow better than having Saddam there. Does the little Weasel know how to do anything besides exacerbate problems? (ie: f*ck things up worse)?

[paparush]

2. No, no, no...ya got it all wrong..

See, the turrists chose to attack us, to challenge our freedom, to say 'no' to democracy, and the terrists was all from Iraqistan, so uh..um...uh..naturally, its only natural, I mean naturally we would want to fight the Iraqi turrahists in Iraq. We're fighting them over there so we don't have to fight them here at home. 9/11 was a turning point and I won't back down..no I won't back down, you can stand me up at the gates of hell..uh..hum..oh yeah..of course its hard work we really appreciate the sacrifice of all the men and women who have to sacrifice their sacrifices. We did not want Iraq to turn into another Afghanistan so we naturally invaded them because Iraq had Weapons of Mass Destruc....uh..oh yeah...because Iraq is a haven for terrorist..the terroristahs are making their last stand.

4. We did do all of that.

He's admitting what the hell happened finally. Bush is god damned blind, he thinks this is going to restore peace to the middle east. If this keeps up, there will be a holocaust.

Bush is nothing but a creep's pawn in a madman's stupid quest for OIL & cult based christianity. When he realizes how bad things are, he still won't change the course.

Bush had his damned chance and he's too shortsighted to understand, this war could go on for 12 years.

5. He used the troops at home as props.

He's admitting that he uses the troops in Iraq as bait.

[oasis]

6. Bush's war of choice stirred up the hornet's nest. He's to blame for the

mess we're in. WMD my ass.

[Triana]

8. Exactly. (n/t)
