Critique of Weiner's Rumsfeld Confession Article |
|
Edited on Wed Mar-30-05 12:13 AM by Harlequin
At the core of it, Mr. Weiner sneakily equivocates American foreign policy with Israeli foreign policy here in saying "...opposed to OUR existence." (emphasis mine). "Our" in that sentence is meant as Rumsfeld speaking of America. The reality is our country has been coopted by Jewish neocons to carry out the Israeli foreign policy aims.
Not only was there corruption on massive scales in many of those autocratically-ruled nations, but fundamentalist Islamic forces were gaining strength against these regimes; we couldn't risk these countries falling to Al Qaeda-like forces violently opposed to our existence. This was our thinking before 9/11; afterwards, it was intensified a hundred fold.
The reason Al-Qaeda attacks the U.S. is, in part, due to its unconditional support of Israel. It didn't make it in the mainstream, but that's what Osama bin Laden was saying in his unedited transcripts. I know: I was in the newsroom, reading and comparing the originals against what the Times was printing.
So Weiner fails, like everyone else in the fucking world, to mention that what's really the interest is a) defending Israel from weakness in our Saudi Arabian partnership and b) pure and simple bloodlust on the part of the Bush Administration and its hawks.
Weiner's just as bad as they are as far as not disclosing the truth. He's practically written an apology for Rumsfeld. Weiner's just as bad.

Just thought I'd let you know that Israel is a touchy subject around here and anything negative you say about it will get flamed. Seems even some democrats can't handle the truth.

the absence of the truth. (I know that's not what you're saying. I'm writing this more for anyone who reads the thread.)
But hey, thanks, it's good to be here. I guess I won't have "been here" if I don't come out a little scorched. :)

4. Neo cons are traitors. |
|
I served in VN and all these chikenhawks are Traitors from wolfie to cheney to bush to perle
ALL avoided the war that they supported. They are perfectly willing to send my kids to die for their blood lust. I know many VN Vets who feel the same.
ALL the neo-cons and chikenhawks are Traitors.
The neo-conthradals are corrupting Israel and the USA and everything that they touch. The busheviks and their evangelistas want fascism to control the dissidents and will use the neo-cons.{vice versa}.
The bush family will waltz away with their crime syndicate as these 2 countries collapse.
its the bush way...this war is about bush and their war profits..In the end ..bush will backstab even sharon.. its the bush way.. BK jr called bush the worst,immoral pres in US History..he knew what he was talkin about.
