It's "appropriate" for Condi to go to the M.E. now?
Edited on Sat Jul-22-06 10:13 PM by madeline_con
She made a comment earlier in the week about going "when it is appropriate". Is this politspeak for "as soon as Israel inflicts the right amount of damage on Lebanon"?

Why would the US have no comment at first, then openly support Israel's actions, then wait so long to act?


EDIT: spelling, my nemesis :eyes:

1. Why? Because we're complicit in what Israel's doing.
Our little Middle Eastern Sparta has been unleashed by Bush to teach Iran's proxies a lesson.

It's stupid, and counterproductive, but I think that's what's happening.

2. Maybe she ran into a lot of "I'll get back to you on that"
comments from the other players when she was trying to figure out what the h* she was going to do. And the longer she waits, the more likely--they thought--that Israel would have put a stop to the Hezbollah. Didn't work that way.

3. NO! I say the entire Administration needs to take
a Year and Half long vacation! just throw them all on a cruise ship or something leave them in the middle of the Arctic (that's melting) that way the world can start trying to piece itself back together without these assholes continuously fucking it up

5. Condi will wait for Lebanon to look like a moonscape.
Then she'll negotiate with the scorpions.
