Does Bush Recognize Dire Situation In Iraq
It is getting harder and harder to tell the good guys from the bad guys in Iraq and now that these jokers have started impersonating Iraqi police it will only get worse. It has been reported that a group of terrorist dressed up like Iraqi police commandos and proceeded to set off explosives at the al Askariya “Golden Mosque” in Samarra. This terrorist action created heavy damage to a major Shiite holy site in Iraq. The worst part of this is that individuals protesting the terrorism did not condemn the culture of the terrorist bombers, they instead chanted death to America, and death to Israel. Am I missing something, have I forgotten to connect all my dots? I don’t recall any Americans, or Israelis, involved in this atrocious act. What is really going on here, can we get a grip on this at all?
Is civil war inevitable in this country? Many say ti would have come eventually regardless of whether America had invaded or not. Many in the area also say that Syria, and Iran, are behind much of the violence and hatred being perpetrated in Iraq, a destabilized Iraq is good for their best interests. The recent attack on the shrine occurred in the Salaheddin province, which is home to a large Sunni Arab population. This terrorist attack prompted other violent attacks, and then mass protests ensued across the country thus raising fears of more sectarian violence between Shiite and Sunni Muslims.
Reports state that it appears that foreign fighters were most likely responsible for the attack on the holy shrine, officials in Iraq have advised that the attack had the trits of an al Qaeda in Iraq activity.
In Samarra, there were hundreds of people seen gathered at the mosque and the mayor’s office, the crowd was chanting as it denounced the Iraqi government and the U.S. military.
Thousands of protesters also took to the streets in Najaf, they were also directing their ire toward the Iraqi government and the western influence in their country.
I think it’s fair that we ask the Bush Administration again, “What is our strategy for winning this war and getting out?” We don’t want an exit strategy we want a winning strategy.

What if we had ended sanctions after we fully knew in early 1996, that their were no weapons of mass destruction ?
What if we had stopped bank-rolling muhjadeen
thugs to carry arms to Afganistan to overthrow
the Taliban, and secure the oil-pipeline for our interests, in 1999 ?
What if we had listened to Saddam and the forty-or fifty experts who told us that Islamic fascism is the greatest threat to us ?
What if we had cut a deal-based on insisting on regular and random inspections and some movement toward democratic reforms for an aid package that could have offered enough profit
and immunity, so we could go after those indivdual miltary officiers and secret police,who were the one’s most guility of acts of terrorism against the iraqi people? This would have avoided this insane oil-war and put a permanent clamp on the jihadists.
What if we stopped supporting the desert totalitarian theocracies that repress their
people ?
What if would have been a little more even handed in the Israel-Palestinian situtaion, instead of following a knee-jerk pro-zionist policy, in catering to a nuclear
threat ?
What if we had used at least one half of our three-quarters of a trillion defense-security
budget on the needs of our people ?
No Islamic terrorism.
No 9-11.
No Taliban.
No nuclear blackmail.
No more poverty.
This was our future-if we would have taken control of our past.
