Wolf and guest explain Operation Iron Hammer |
|
Former AIPAC employee Wolf Blitzer and some clown whose name I missed reassured the public on the new aerial bombing campaign today, explaining that "it's the only thing they understand" after so many years of Saddam's brutality. They went on to point out that lots of people had been worried that the US might be too soft and wishy-washy, but fortunately, those fears have now been put to rest.
I kept waiting for him to say something about the Iraqis being like children who need and respect strict discipline more than they may let on at the time, but it was time for a commercial, so I guess that line will have to wait.

3. Okah. That does it. It's over. We've now Officially Lost |

"Only thing they understand"
THAT is something Saddam would have said to justify his brutality.
We are now the new less efficient military dictator of the poor mistreated country, using tanks and guns and laser shit instead of rifles and knives.
WTF is the difference?

9. We Could Be A Lot More Efficient |

I think "they" also understand public floggins, roof top flyers, and rape rooms. Do we really need to waste all that money on ordinances?

5. What if Saddam had conducted "Operation Iron Hammer" |
|
against his own people.....I wonder what this administrtaion would have said about that?
This is so wierd that we have TV announcers explaining to us why this is a good thing. Why don't they just change their name to the Bush-Republican News Network?
