"Kill the one" and "destroy the other", you people say in your frustration, but when your leaders won't follow those pieces of advice (and they most definitely won't, and I'm quite sure you know it), will any of you criticize those inactions?
I doubt it. I think most of you will just blame the "Eurabians" instead, or the media, or some "leftist intellectuals" -- namely all the people *except* the ones that had the power to act or not act.
These from the people that claim to believe in personal responsibility.
Once upon a time I told you all that it was Syria (not Iraq) that should have been invaded, that it was an active imperialism whereas Iraq was a contained one, that Syria's occupation would be easier due to its smaller size, that its democratization would have been easier due to its more homogeneous population, that the benefits would have been immediate due to to the relief of Lebanon and Israel, both under external pressure from Syria.
But you didn't listen. So, now reap the fruits of your idiocy -- or rather you won't reap those fruits, it's Israel and Lebanon that have been sadly reaping them. And the American soldiers you sent to your fool's expedition, ofcourse. It's always the innocent that suffer when the idiots mess up.
I can even offer suggestions for the proper course of action from now on, and they won't be of the ludicrous variety like "Smash Iran" -- you *can't* smash Iran, while its agents have you by the balls throughout Iraq and everyone knows it. And you can't even smash Syria anymore either, as you don't have the troops to send there anymore. That ship has sailed.
But you won't bother to listen to those suggestions either, and your leaders don't plan to follow any half-sane policy if it would cause them to lose face in the slightest degree. (Just like any other bully, the Bush government doesn't give a damn about moral standing, but it does give a lot of damn about face. So they're just hoping that they'll keep things together long enough, that the utter failure of the Iraqi expedition will only become undeniably visible even to die-hard Republicans during a Democrat Presidency. Then they'll blame the failure on that administration, not the one that actually originated and guided the insanity.)
PS: Some admin seems to have messed up and unbanned me. Really, if you don't want the sort of commentary like the one I just made, you should just ban me again. Cheers, all. |
