Whiplash: Bushevik Iran War Preparations Buried in Between Big Breasts
and Diapers

A BUZZFLASH EDITORIAL

It was a week of startling revelations that included:

The Pentagon issuing a report admitting that they had a department set
up that helped create lies to convince America to go to war with Iraq.

The Libby trial further revealing that Cheney orchestrated a campaign,
with the approval of Bush, that included outing a CIA operative who
specialized in tracking the illicit sale and possession of WMD=E2=80=99s,=

very reason Cheney and Bush claimed that we went to war with Iraq
over, but lied about.

Congressional hearings unearthed multiple Bush Administration
betrayals and deceptions including that the Iranians had offered
awhile back to have comprehensive negotiations with the U.S. to help
stabilize Iraq and even potentially recognize Israel.

The Bush Administration ignored their offer.
Among the many other Congressional hearing bombshells, we learned that
the Bush "Viceroy" for Iraq, L. Paul Bremer, allowed the distribution
of $12 billion in cash without requiring any record keeping.

The Bush Administration continued putting naval and military resources
in place to launch a nuclear airstrike on Iran.

But these and so many other bombshells =E2=80=93 which strung together in=

one week would merit the exploration of high crimes and misdemeanors
(as in the impeachment of Bush and Cheney) =E2=80=93 got buried in the su=

death of the only bombshell that really matters to television news
ratings: the mysterious death of a bodacious blonde female celebrity.

Oh, and let=E2=80=99s not forget the astronaut who wore diapers as she dr=

cross the south to presumably do harm to a romantic rival. (Given that
this is America, the astronaut charged with the crime will probably
end up as a spokesperson for "Depends.")

We could go on and on with a list of how severely the White House has
betrayed the national security of the United States =E2=80=93 and how Con=

still can=E2=80=99t stop "Thelma and Louise" (as TomDispatch.com calls th=

from sending more American GIs to die for a conflict born of deceit =E2=

and now fueled by hubris, delusions, ego, arrogance and lies. (Not to
mention the real gas that keeps the endless Iraq War continuing:
rural, poor and immigrant GI cannon fodder and hundreds of billions of
American tax dollars.)

But with news having formally merged with the entertainment industry,
a dead curvy blonde with a soap opera personal history always beats
out a highly possible Armageddon-initiating nuclear attack on Iran.

By Saturday, at least the media covered the launch of Barack Obama=E2=80=

campaign in our home state of Illinois =E2=80=93 and included the Lincoln=

ins that the Obama strategists were hoping for. (And trust us, in
Springfield, Illinois, the state government and the Lincoln legacy are
the only industries to speak of.)

Which brings us to the script rewrite department.

Because the flip side of the Obama coverage was the eerie, freakish
New York Times rewrite of the Iraq WMD story, this time claiming that
Iran has a sophisticated roadside bomb it is supplying to the Bushevik
enemy of the week in Iraq.

Here we go again: the same vague sources without attribution. The same
third person omniscience of something that was right out of a pre-Iraq
War Judith Miller article for which the New York Times previously
apologized! The same lack of context and alternative perspectives. (It
may even be true, who knows? =C2=A0But isn't Pakistan supplying arms to t=

Taliban and sheltering Osama bin Laden? =C2=A0Aren't Saudi Arabians
supplying money and arms to the Sunnis? Because of the Bush/Cheney
fiasco, everyone has got their fingers in Iraq.)

It=E2=80=99s d=C3=A9j=C3=A0 vu all over again, with the script not even c=

White House or the New York Times! In fact, the NYT reporter who wrote
the "Iran bomb" story co-wrote with Miller before.

By Sunday, we have a bad case of diaper, breast and pre-Armageddon
(the nuking of Iran by "Thelma and Louise") whiplash at BuzzFlash.com.

Still, as we rub our sore neck from the infotainment "reporting" train
wreck of the week past, we do hope for the mental health recovery of
the romantically desperate astronaut, and we are sorry for Nicole
Smith that being a celebrity in America has cost another life.

But we are also profoundly concerned that Congress is not moving fast
enough to keep Cheney and Bush from initiating "the Rapture" by
bombing Iran.

Because in that case, the corporate tabloid television networks =E2=80=93=

can=E2=80=99t distinguish between the news value of breasts, diapers and
delusional, deceitful wars =E2=80=93 won=E2=80=99t be around as the final=

awe display of the Bush-Cheney administration lights the fuse that
leads to World War III.

What would happen if the world blew up and no one saw it on
television?

And would we ever find out the fate of Natalee Holloway in Aruba?
