(100,431 posts)By letting the BFEE scumbags get a "get out of jail free" card, we're sending a message to the world that infinite war is the new normal. Get used to it.

(52 posts)Sadly, no one will dare lift a finger against the Bush Junta and his cronies to make it happen. What a sad state of affairs...

and sure enough, there it was, with even more inane gleeful chatter.
Last time I ever watched CNN.
At the time, most of us did believe the lies behind 9-11.

(24,975 posts)To say the chickens have come home to roost is a gross understatement.
Do you think with this recent CIA disclosure that Bush and Cheney "deliberately" ignored warnings of 9-11 and hid the paper trail, we might finally see some prosecutions?
I hope the Dem candidates will be asked this tonight. I hope Bernie will say yes...

(15,777 posts)I always thought it was like a hell hole or something. But modern, vibrant city. The streets and street lighting I thought I was looking at Paris or London. And then we came back and did it some more and looted their museums. Yes I understand the anger.

(2,061 posts)Previously it was guessed about love of oil. That, I could understand, at least I understand a materialistic motive.
I think it was a love of destruction, directed at an enemy the President had prior motive to attack (and dislike, remember the supposed 'plot' against GHB) as we were impotent against Saudi Arabia.
It was also a love of the exercising a power the President wanted the world to know we had.

(1,786 posts)The next day seeing people giddy talking about watching the footage of the bombs being dropped and feeling sick to my stomach. I pointed out that Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 and that innocent people were most likely dying in each of those blasts and being ostracized for it being called "un-patriotic"...there was a blood lust in the air and many, many Americans were all for it.
What we did to Iraq is horrible. The fact that the people who orchestrated it are still walking free is disgusting and is one of the two biggest mistakes President Obama has made as President.
