A frantically spinning White House
Make sense of this, if you can:
The number of U.S. soldiers killed in the occupation of Iraq now
exceeds the American death toll in the "liberation" of that unhappy
country, the demarcation day of May 1 having been announced by G.I.
George while disguised as a fighter pilot.
The American administrator says the reconstruction of Iraq cannot be
achieved without "several tens of billions of dollars" to rebuild its
war-torn infrastructure and shattered economy.
And President Bush has a new explanation for why we're there:
It's the new battleground for the war on terror.
We must press on, he says, until "total victory," confronting the
terrorist menace in the desert so that "our people will not have to
confront terrorist violence in New York or St. Louis or Los Angeles."
Bush has turned Iraq into a one stop shopping mall for "terrorism" and now
he is saying it was done with malice and forethought. A sort of "Bring 'em
on" with a chorus. and "look how good we are at exporting our violence."
But this is a new day and the reason for invading gets morphed again.
Today's cognitive dissonance is that Saddan tricked US intelligence by
sending agent defectors to tell lies about his weapons programs.
The only was out of this mess is with public hangings of the whole
administration to show the world they really are not America's
representatives. But that won't happen so the other alternative is a super
volcano rising out of Yellowstone Park.
