"When he went braying into Iraq, he thought people would roll over, throw flowers, and have a democratic revolution. This would start a domino effect that would make all the other Muslim countries want to be democracies, too. They would climb over each other to be democracies. They would love us because democracies love each other. He just knew it."Here, the author is lying. From the beginning Bush has said the war would be a "long, tough slog".
As for the domino effect the Libyan domino fell rather quickly. But here the author once again is lying. Bush never promised that "all the other Muslim countries" would want to be democracies.
I mean, hell, I didn't get two paragraphs into this odiferous nonsense before the author started with the big lies.
You can do better than this Bush bashing meandog. Try harder!!!
"Of course, if you have read any history, which Bush hasn't, you will have noticed that people do not like being occupied by force"
Repeats the core lie of the American left and the Europeans on Iraq that "We are fighting the Iraqi people."
It is an absolute lie to say that the insurgents are representative of or supported by the Iraqi people. The truth is that the overwhelming majority of the Iraqi people(even Sunnis) hate and despise the insurgents and want us to help them destroy the terrorists.
Trying to cast this as a war between occupiers and the oppressed is the big lie of our enemy. The freely elected multi-ethnic government of Iraq wants and needs our help.
If you are talking about Iraq and not talking about victory then you are helping the enemy and you need to stop. There will be plenty of time for recriminations later.
