BUSH: "I know Hezbollah is connected to Iran"
Edited on Thu Jul-27-06 01:46 PM by kpete
Bush cites Iran's role in Lebanon conflict
Declines to criticize Israel's tactics in offensive against Hezbollah

WASHINGTON - President Bush declined Thursday to criticize Israel's tactics in its continuing offensive against Hezbollah guerrillas in southern Lebanon, and gave a sharp condemnation of Iran's role in the bloody fighting.

"Hezbollah attacked Israel. I know Hezbollah is connected to Iran," Bush said tersely at the end of Oval Office meetings with Romanian President Traian Basescu. "Now is the time for the world to confront this danger," Bush said.

...................

"Now is the time to address the root cause of the problem and the root cause of the problem is terrorist groups trying to stop the advance of democracy," he said. "Our objective is to make sure that those who use terrorist tactics are not rewarded."

8. "Our objective is to make sure that those who use terrorist tactics are
not rewarded"

So we'll reward them by escalating the war they want, thus making their recruiting efforts much easier.

So continues the endless cycle of wars upon wars.

9. Those who do advance "democracy" aren't rewarded either.
Lebanon: We're killing it to save it.

Holy crap. Even if you didn't know the PNAC game plan you'd have to believe this man was way beyond delusional.

11. Methinks lying us into another war ain't gonna work this time.
'Murikans are sick of his first war. I'd be shocked if they followed him into another.

14. Hell, EVERYONE knows Hezbollah is connected to Iran!
It was founded by supporters of the Ayatollah Khomeni, for starters, and Iran supplies its weapons. This is hardly a revelation.

21. It's funny that whenever he mentions ANY fact about world politics
he says it like he's only just found it out himself. I don't know if you've been reading Doonesbury lately, but there's been a funny series about him not being to keep track of all the different parties in the Middle East - Thinking Hezbollah is the same as ebola, and so on ...

19. Isn't Hezbollah also connected to Syria?
What the hey, might as well bomb them to rubble too, seeing as how they're right on the way to Iran. :sarcasm:
