Seek Clarity

Bush is blocking news of Iraq offensives. There are no news reporters on the ground to document what is going on in Falluja. Our domestic media spins like a dervish for the bushites. You wonder why the people are confused...they go to church for guidance and get more political pap. Christian churches in the US have become equivalent to Islamic Hawzas, make no mistake. The Bush gov't is using religiuos fervor to fuel a war against an equally obstinate religious opponent.

It is happening. Our country is declaring those who don't bow down to them as outlaws, despite the fact we invaded their country and are attempting to import our view of the world and shove it down their throats. They aren't taking kindly to this and have organized their own tea party. I wonder what the revolution in the 13 colonies would have looked like if reported from the british angle...

Remember, we invaded a sovereign country on multiple, since debunked, pretexts and get in a huff when they fight back. We have no business there! Time to leave as we are beginning to look like a bunch of jack booted thugs and disgusting colonialists. We have destabilized an entire country. Saddaam was no saint, but he was able to keep the disparate factions under some control. When will our mass graves exceed his in the name of freedom????

Bring our boys home now!!! I don't want them to end up psychologically impaired as a result of having to kill so many innocents in their "precise surgical strikes". They didn't sign up to fight for curious george's ego!

2. It is frustrating

As a christian and a progressive, I am very sensitive in
church about political speech. The first hint of republican
propaganda and i'm pulling my family out of the church. So
far the pastors have stayed above the political speech. I can
honestly say I do not know if my pastor is a democrat or a republican.
I would rather it stay that way.
I don't know what it is going to take for the majority of America to
see the corruption and self serving nature of this administration.

3. It's as if we keep fighting 2000 year old battles

We have more destructive weapons so it's not even a fair fight. We are in their land, uninvited. We are being spun as if it is a call on our patriotism, but it's a big fat lie.

Our money, which could be better spent is being wasted on an unnecessary wasteful war waged to expand the Israeli sphere of influence, make no mistake. those who tell the truth are declared anti-semites, but Israel is a violent state, imposed on occupied territory and now we seek to do the same in Iraq.

Of course they are fighting back! We are seeking to install Chalabi, a felon in Jordan due to bank fraud (BCCI maybe??), a man who has been out of Iraq for 40 years. Ya think maybe they aren't cool with that???? kinda like sending Florida Cubans back to depose Castro, which I'm sure is on their agenda if they get 4 more years, NOT!!!!!!

5. I opposed this war from the start

But I do think that we have the responsibility of cleaning up the mess now that we got involved. Hopefully we can convince NATO to join us once John Kerry is president.

However at this point I am not sure that Iraq has rebuilt its own military sufficiently to prevent a civil war, there are many different factions fighting for power now that Saddam is gone.
