Annals of Liberation: The Noble Fruits of 9/11

By Chris Floyd
09/11/06 "Information Clearing House"' -- -- Let us pause on this day of solemn remembrance and take stock of what our noble Leader has done in the world with the vast storehouse of "political capital" he received from the "new Pearl Harbor" that his noble captains Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Libby (and brother Jeb) once openly called for – in September 2000 – in a document published by their noble organization of selfless zealots for global altruism, The Project for a New American Century. Now, on this solemn occasion, as the noble Leader himself takes to the airwaves to remind us of his nobility in those dark days after the attack that his noble captains had so presciently yearned for, let us assay just one small gleaning of the great and noble crop of freedom the Leader has harvested with the seeds from what he has often called the "opportunity" provided by the murder of almost 3,000 American citizens and nationals from many other countries.



Let us turn our tear-filled eyes away from the noble Leader's sentimental journey through the three sites of mass murder in which his greatness is firmly rooted, and look for a moment to Mesopotamia, to the great and ancient land of Babylon, where the noble Leader has bestowed – entirely unasked, an act of purest noblesse oblige – the benefits of liberation, democracy and the free market. Let us sojourn to a place that was once a zone of darkness under the harsh rule of Saddam Hussein, a symbol of torture, of the bestiality that lurks in the nether chambers of the human heart, a place whose name sent shivers of atavistic fear through the breast of every Iraqi: Abu Ghraib.



Let us recall the overwhelming joy that greeted our noble Leader's declaration that he would tear down this fortress of evil – and recall too his later, more considered wisdom that it would in fact make a handy-dandy place to keep the captives of his own mild and benevolent rule. Now, in accordance with his noble intent to turn over full sovereignty of the Iraqi government to the, uh, Iraqis, he has relinquished control of Abu Ghraib to his protégés, to the security forces that he himself has raised up and trained for service to the Iraqi people. Let us see what has transpired since this auspicious and historic turnover -- but let us not, on this solemn day, resort for this information to any of those media outlets who have made themselves a vessel for traitorous doubts and terroristic manipulation by editorially opposing the noble Leader's humanitarian intervention in Iraq or taking his noble captains to task for supposed incompetence, venality, corruption and deceit.



No, no, on this most solemn of days above all, let us have recourse instead to a fine, reliably conservative journal, which has staunchly supported the Leader's noble mission in Iraq from the very start. Let us see what the Sunday Telegraph, pro-war, pro-Bush, has to say about what has been happening in Abu Ghraib since the Leader's favored Iraqi factions have taken it over. Let us see the kind of liberation that the exploited deaths of almost 3 ,000 people on 9/11, and the deaths of more than 2,600 Americans killed in Iraq since then, and the deaths of more than 100,000 innocent Iraqi civilians has produced. Let us see what Bush has purchased with so much blood.

Tortured screams ring out as Iraqis take over Abu Ghraib (Sunday Telegraph)

And the number of Iraqi children who have perished plus those who are in deep deprivations and traumatized.
