and who is to say we’re correct?
Speaking about the current situation in Iraq and the death of another 36 soldiers today, President Bush had this to say:
“But it is the long-term objective that is vital, and that is to spread freedom. Otherwise the Middle East will continue to be a caldron of resentment and hate, a recruiting ground for those who have this vision of the world that is the exact opposite of ours”.
My question is this…
Who decides what the correct vision is? Why is our vision more valid than theirs?
I’m not condoning the terrorists or the tyrants that have taken over these countries, but if truth be told. We put them in power in the first place. Why is Iraq more important than the countries in Africa where there are millions being killed in racially charged attacks?
I still do not understand why we are there, but I have noticed that the term “freedom” is being thrown around alot these days as an explaination. Originally, we were told the war was to find the weapons that we were convinced were there. Then, when the weapons never showed up, we were told that it was to remove Saddam from power. Now that Saddam has been removed, we’re being told that our goal is to extend “freedom”.
I’m just sitting here wondering when the lies will stop, and someone will finally come out and just fucking say…
“Ya know what? We fucking did it to secure more oil and to get republican donors even more of the pie than they already have. We didn’t care about weapons or Saddam, hell why do you think we put him in there in the first place? We knew this would happen, and he was in on it. He’s out by the pool at the Crawford Ranch sipping Mai Tai’s and enjoying the billions we’re ripping off from the taxpayers.”
Yeah, the truth. Will someone please come forward and just tell the fucking truth? OH! and without any spin?
