2. I would like to know who he thinks will fight it ...
unless he thinks that he will nuclearize all of his enemies and then when all hell breaks loose he will hide in his bunker while we are left to face his and the neocons mess. The best laid plans don't usually go as planned especially when it comes to this ass...

4. Bushco?
Edited on Tue Aug-15-06 09:04 PM by LUHiWY
Bushco = neocons = Israeli foreign policy?

The US has been trying to follow the great successes (?) of Israel's buttkicking foreign policy and apply it around the globe.


Now what do we have?

We have Islamic terrorists after us just like Israel.

We have essentially a police state formed or being formed.

We have the fools in charge attempting to do even more of the SOS...all the while blowing wind about freedom.


But now it looks like Israel has met some resistance?

And so has the US?


Remember...the bigger the chicken...the bigger the egg it lays.

Israel lays small eggs...and the big chicken backs it up.

But the US has laid a REALLY BIG EGG?

"In conversation with Israel’s three most important ambassadors to the West, Dayan explained why he was totally opposed - whatever the pressure from the West - to the idea that Israel should abandon its policy of reprisal attacks. They were, he said, “a life drug.” What he meant, he also explained, was that reprisal attacks enabled the Israeli government “to maintain a high degree of tension in the country and the army.” What, really, did that mean?Israel’s standing or full-time army was (as it still is and must be) relatively small, not more than about 23,000 souls in all. The other quarter of a million fighting men and women who could be mobilised in 48 hours were reservists from every walk of Israel’s civil society. The real point? Without Israeli reprisal attacks and all that they implied ­ that the Zionist state was in constant danger of being annihilated - there was a possibility that some and perhaps many reservists would not be motivated enough to respond to Zionism’s calls to arms.Put another way, what Dayan really feared was the TRUTH. He knew, as all of Israel’s leaders knew, that Israel’s existence was NOT in danger from any combination of Arab forces. And that was the truth which had to be kept from the Jews of Israel. Dayan’s fear was that if they became aware of it, they might insist on peace on terms the Arab regimes could accept but which were not acceptable to Zionism. Among those present when Dayan explained the need for Israeli reprisal attacks as a “life drug” was the Foreign Ministry’s Gideon Rafael. He reported what Dayan told the ambassadors to Prime Minister Moshe Sharret ­ in my view, and with the arguable exception of Yitzhak Rabin, the only completely rational prime minister Israel has ever had. And we know from Sharret’s diaries what Rafael then said to him: “This is how fascism began in Italy and Germany!”"

The ABOVE is how the little chicken got started......now we will start to see the egg hatch?

7. I believe that it he doesn't know how to..
and he thinks that if he says it, they will do it because he is the decider. I have been saying all along that he wants the draft that is why he is causing conflicts so that we have no choice. But Cheney is the one who is doing this with his five deferment draft dodging ass.

fight them over here.Never mind that Iran can sink our ships, destroy our planes and over run Iraq with our troops the primary and ill equiped target for an Iranian invasion now.
