See what Bush has 'accomplished' in Iraq

By Victor Connor


President Bush says there is still more to accomplish in Iraq so he
has vetoed Congress.

Let's review what we have accomplished so far:

Possibly as many as 1 million Iraqi dead, 4 million fled or internally
displaced.

Over 2,000 physicians killed, 250 kidnapped and 18,000 fled.

Over 300 academics assassinated and thousands fled.

One hundred journalists and 37 support workers killed; a number higher
than any other war on Earth.

The destruction of monuments and archeological sites of the cradle of
civilization and of history, in general.

Sectarian strife, militias, introduced with the invasion, between
peoples who had lived together for 1,000 years.

Ongoing suicide bombings in a country where they were unheard of.

Rigged elections, the results achieved by threats, bribery, threat of
ration card confiscation.

Abu Ghraib's torture, forever the U.S. Army's image in the Middle
East.

The disappeared in the thousands.

Destruction of an entire civil society with damage to every
institution, costing hundreds of billions of dollars to fix.

*Missing Iraqi aid in billions of dollars.

* The illegal rewriting of constitutions, both Iraqi and American.

* The installation of a quisling government with loyalties largely, to

anywhere but Iraq, and an American government with loyalties largely
to big business.

Committing Nuremberg's ``supreme crime,'' a war of aggression, based
on a pack of lies.

Demands for impeachment increasing by the day.

Destruction of America's and Britain's image for generations to come
and the inability of their citizens to feel safe anywhere.

A death toll heading toward 4,000 dead U.S troops - admitted to - and
thousands horrifically injured.

*A trillion dollar debt.

Near universal loathing of America.

And President Bush wants to continue this war and occupation
indefinitely.

You STILL don't GET IT. You have been watching his face when you
should have been watching his hands.
The object of the war is NOT what he SAYS: the object of the war was,
has been, and IS -- to transfer the contents of the U.S. Treasury to
his supporters, the war profiteers; to enhance his "Unitary" powers,
and to dominate the oil resources of the middle east.
ALL THE REST IS MISDIRECTION -- SMOKE AND MIRRORS.
THE PEA WAS NEVER UNDER THE SHELL.. GET IT?

Harry deals with facts. The point of the thread is not the war's motive
but what he has brought down on us as Americans.

SEE "*". Those points deal with what you're saying in a general way....
