Bush Regime On the Ground (Again) in Iraq

[bigtree]

Bush today:

"I can understand why people are concerned about whether or not our strategy can succeed, because our progress is incremental. Freedom is moving, but it's in incremental steps. And the enemy's progress is almost instant on their TV screens. And, of course, I get briefings from our commanders on the ground. I want to assure you that the information -- I make my mind up based not upon politics or political opinion polls, but based upon what the commanders on the ground tell me is going on."

"The question of our force levels here will depend on conditions on the ground and discussions with the Iraqi government, which will evolve over time," he said.

Bush Regime On The Ground In Iraq


my latest 2 cents -- Bush's Wicked Iraq Lies (5-22-2006)

[babylonsister]

1. K, N, and bookmarked. That's quite a compilation, bigtree! Thanks!

:hi:

[bigtree]

2. You are more than welcome, babylonsister

thanks for looking in. :hi:

[Mnemosyne]

3. Great work bigtree! Whoa! n/t

:applause:

[Disturbed]

5. The Bush Regime thinks that the Iraq situation...

is the only reason that Busholini's Disapproval rating is so low. They are trying everything they can do to bring down the level of violence on the US TV screens.

[bigtree]

9. here's one place where they don't mind pushing the terror images

Flying bodies and booming pyrotechnics turned the warehouse district east of downtown Los Angeles into a make-believe killing ground Saturday, with the filming of an unusual public service ad for Iraqi TV meant to discourage suicide bombings.

Jonathan Zaleski, a publicist for 900 Frames, said funding for the spot came from a group of private Iraqi citizens, in the country and abroad, who preferred to remain anonymous.

Previously, 900 Frames and EFX teamed up in a public service ad promoting Iraqi unity that was sponsored by a group called Future Iraq Assembly. The group's website, http://www.futureiraq.org , features a series of professional and expensive-looking ads on themes of peace and national unity.

The site says the group's members are Iraqi business people, scholars and activists, but none are identified.

In the past, some Iraqi groups have received money covertly from the U.S. or other governments with a stake in Iraq's political struggles. There has been speculation in the media that Future Iraq Assembly has received U.S. funding for its work.

6. He's begging.

He's reduced to begging for time. Time that will do nothing.....except continue the deaths, the sinkhole that's named Iraq.

He's just desperately trying to figure out what to do next. They don't have an answer, folks. Just more of the same - stalling, trying to figure out how to hold on to that treasure that's worth so much money....it's slipping away.....can't grasp on to it.....so close.....and yet so far......

....hanging on......by their fingernails.......

....pleading, begging.........

....mirage........

10. A liar is a liar and lives on the lies he tells and dies in a life of lies

The tongue of a man is tied on this,
On the liar who lies to nations,
The liar who lies to the people.

-- Carl Sandburg

7. Freedom is Moving. Unfortunately, It is Moving Further Away

[bigtree]

11. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.

"The war, therefore, if we judge it by the standards of previous wars, is merely an imposture. It is like the battles between certain ruminant animals whose horns are set at such an angle that they are incapable of hurting one another. But though it is unreal it is not meaningless. It eats up the surplus of consumable goods, and it helps to preserve the special mental atmosphere that a hierarchical society needs. War, it will be seen, is now a purely internal affair. In the past, the ruling groups of all countries, although they might recognize their common interest and therefore limit the destructiveness of war, did fight against one another, and the victor always plundered the vanquished. In our own day they are not fighting against one another at all. The war is waged by each ruling group against its own subjects, and the object of the war is not to make or prevent conquests of territory, but to keep the structure of society intact. The very word "war," therefore, has become misleading. It would probably be accurate to say that by becoming continuous war has ceased to exist. The peculiar pressure that it exerted on human beings between the Neolithic Age and the early twentieth century has disappeared and has been replaced by something quite different. The effect would be much the same if the three superstates, instead of fighting one another, should agree to live in perpetual peace, each inviolate within its own boundaries. For in that case each would still be a self-contained universe, freed forever from the sobering influence of external danger. A peace that was truly permanent would be the same as a permanent war. This -- although the vast majority of Party members understand it only in a shallower sense -- is the inner meaning of the Party slogan: WAR IS PEACE." -- Orwell 1984

12. they're in love with the phrase. what does it mean?

White House says conditions will dictate Iraq pullout

Despite optimism triggered by formation of Iraq's unity government, the White House stressed on Tuesday conditions on the ground in Iraq will dictate when US troops can withdraw.

The statement came as the White House announced that President George W. Bush will meet his top Iraq war ally, British Prime Minister Tony Blair, on Thursday. (Reuters)
