"The first reaction, of course, of Hezbollah and its supporters is, declare victory. I guess I would have done the same thing if I were them. But sometimes it takes people a while to come to the sober realization of what forces create stability and which don't. Hezbollah is a force of instability."
George W. Bush
Remarks to the Press
August 18, 2006


"For 60 years, my country, the United States, pursued stability at the expense of democracy in this region here in the Middle East -- and we achieved neither. Now, we are taking a different course."
Condoleezza Rice
Speech at the American University of Cairo
June 20, 2005

So instability is good, but Hizbullah is a force for instability, which is bad. But Hizbullah lost the war, which is good, so it can't be a force for instability any more, which could be bad or good, depending on what day of the week it is and whether or not Shrub has been hitting the sauce again.

So I guess it's a win/win situation.

1. Let's cut to the chase here
Even before it was enunciated, BushCo's motto has been "You're either with us or against us". If you're with Bush** you can do no wrong. If you're against, nothing you do is acceptable; further, you forfeit the right to exist.

They just get twisted around in their futile attempts to make that sound reasonable to the world at large, that's all.

4. Just one of so very many messes...
Howdy acmejack, good to see you too! :hug:

Life is doing me grand, personally, although life in general isn't so great, seeing the carnage going on thanks to the rightwingnut "leaders" in America & Israel. Half the population in Israel, half the population in America, anmd the vast majority of the rest of the entire world are saying enough of this bullshit & slaughter...and yet the piddling little minority just hangs on and orders more deaths.

Way past time to lose that piddling little minority, aka rightwingnuts.
