41. this is Vietnam regurgitated....and the purpose is not 'to win'.....
Edited on Mon Dec-27-04 08:54 PM by diamond14
the purpose is to put as much of OUR Nation's money into the pockets of war-profiteers (halliburton, lockheed-martin, dyncorp, saic, etc) for as long as possible....which thrills reTHUGlicans, because the HUGE military costs are already strangling off what they HATE most: social programs and educational programs...and nobody cares, because PATRIOTISM trumps all....OUR troops lives are totally incidental to this money grab...and this is bush* war-on-the-cheap... so not too much armor and vests, which cut into the profits...

indeed, the war-profiteers are the SAME companies that did up Vietnam (for Vietnam, brown and root, which is now halliburton, the rest are the same)...Colin Powell is the SAME military general who ordered and covered up war crimes in Vietnam.....every step of the bush* war is the SAME as Vietnam, all the same mistakes...nobody cares about the bush* mistakes, because guess what: BILLIONS of DOLLARS are disappearing EVERYDAY into the pockets of the war-profiteers with NO QUESTIONS ASKED and no accounting needed (it's pentagoon stuff after all, and there's no oversight EVER done on that corruption....they all know it...that's why WAR is the tool, the key to a successful money grab of OUR money...and maybe a little bonus: THEIR oil, but that's not the purpose either)....

bush* wars will continue for many many years....there is no pressure, sadly, the "rah rah go troops cheer cheer" period seems to be flowing WAY LONGER than Vietnam did, so far, no one even considers burning ROTC buildings and our cities are relatively calm....Americans are still enthralled with bush* and his wars...cheers.....


sooooo, after years and years of this debacle (14 years for Vietnam)....there MAY be some pressure from the American People to CUT OFF THE MONEY to the war-profiteers...that's what ended the Vietnam quagmire...CONGRESS was forced to CHOKE OFF THE MONEY...and then it was a quick fleeing in helicopters and boats for our once proud American troops....nixon replacement PresidentGerald Ford thought the 'escape ladder' on our embassy roof was SO EXCITING, that he wanted it for his Presidential museum after Vietnam re-opened due to John Kerry's work....the ladder sits there with this glorious title: the Ladder to Freedom....our economy was in shambles after Vietnam, and jobs were very very scare, and OUR Treasury was LOOTED (the purpose)....


and this WILL happen in Iraq: which many reTHUGlicans still refuse to believe happened and present all kinds of dribble crap if you mention it...but the BOTTOM LINE was that the GREATEST MILITARY IN THE WORLD, the USA, with the MOST ADVANCED WEAPONS AND WEAPON SYSTEMS for that era, using CHEMICAL WARFARE, BIOLOGICAL WARFARE, NAPALM, burning their food and villages to the ground...the great USA...the BIGGEST AND HIGHEST COST MILITARY was HUMILIATED by a third-world country that had NO AirForce and NO Navy.....we were HUMILIATED AND DEFEATED... and at the end, we fled with our tails between our legs, with Americans punching their way onto the last helicopters and hanging for their lives on overloaded airlifts...it was embarrassing AND humiliating....

that is what will happen in Iraq, with perhaps some slight variations on the theme....but it's the same song...so far, every single step of the Iraqmire has been following the playbook from Vietnam.....it only makes sense if you realize: the purpose is not to win the war...the purpose to STEAL as much money from the American Treasury as possible, and put it into the pockets of the war-profitteers (like a huge money-laundering operation)...as long as those money-laundering operations continue...the tool that makes that happen (bush* wars) WILL continue....guaranteed....

don't be fooled by the bush* cabal sinister PHOTO-OPS of troops with Iraq children and handing out chickens and all that....it's sinister...those kinds of PR barf have been keeping Americans in that 'rah rah go troops rah rah' phase of the bush* wars....the photos are little events, not representative of anything in the reality of Iraq life, but VERY EFFECTIVE in keeping the cheers coming....for the war-profiteers that's a lesson from Vietnam....because as the economy tanked because of Vietnam, American cities went into ECONOMIC riots and looting (which were falsely painted as 'racial riots by those nig**rs') and ROTC buildings were burned on college campuses.....so far, bush* has been able to STEAL all the money, tanking OUR enconomy, with happy Iraqi pictures and stink-tank talk show lies on the economy...even the so-called 'protests' are more like easter day parades, with porta potties, and first aid tents and permits (a PERMIT for a PROTEST???) and all bushites orders are politely complied with right down to NOTIFYING them what you are doing and where you are doing it........people remain calm and very obedient and continue to sacrifice their own children as cannon-fodder to their beloved bush*...and that's VERY IMPORTANT to the war-profiteers, so their THEFT can continue unhindered....the war-profiteers are so thrilled with bush* wars, that they are have a HUGE coronation (money that COULD be used to provide armor and vests for OUR troops, but war-profiteers DON"T do that), and are in the process of the most amazingly decadent luxury parties in DC right now, in time of war CELEBRATE CELEBRATE !!!!! it's all about bush* successful theft of OUR money....that's how it all works...
