Comments on: U.S. Forces Fighting Iranians In Iraq

Former Assistant Secretary Of State: New Efforts Against Iran Significantly Raise Stakes

[randalds]

The fact that Bush's war in a war of choice and not a war of necessity is that same reason so many people get sick of hearing how we've only lost 3000 of our troops when we lost hundreds of thousands in WWII. The truth is that they died for something, but just like in Vietnam, the soldiers in Iraq have died for nothing. It's not the number of soldiers that have died, it's that Bush wasted their lives and that's unforgivable. However since their lives mean nothing to Bush or his supporters he and they just don't get it.

Have you read history at all? The only reason the ex-government had been in power in the first place was because of our CIA forcing it down the throats of the Iraqi people. The Shah was a tool of the CIA, no more, no less. Of course they hated our guts for it.

On the subject of Bush being supposedly insane because he's defending our way of life, you communists, I've learned that, not only are you traitors, but your pop psycologist's as well. It must be great to be such an authority on these issues. Answer this: if your correct in your own psycotic assesment of Bush, how is FDR, Abraham Lincon, and Woodrow Wilson any better?

Oooo, calling me a communist. The power of that insult died decades ago. FDR, Lincoln and Wilson all fought wars that were forced upon them and that they sought to avoid. Bush is fighting a war of choice. An invasion of a weaker nation by a stronger one that was no credible threat and for mostly purposes of conquest. that's actually not just insanity, it's an international war crime, punishable by hanging as a matter of fact. Though I'm sure in Bush's case he has all the evidence he needs to plead insanity. Bush's war is not about preserving our way of life and therefore cannot be compared to the wars of the presidents you mentioned. they fought wars because they had to. Bush fought this one because he wanted to. That's sick and crazy.

We didn't storm the embassy to take hostages, we did it to root out the Iranian network that's killing our troops! Sorry if that offends you.

Very good, grazinggoat.

Are you saying that Iranians did well when they stormed our emabssy in Tehran in 1979? Remember that hostage-taking that lasted for 444 days, that was condemned by the International community, before it was negotiated to an end by Late Ronald Reagan?
Only it was a newly (unstable) government that allowed its students to act in such a way that is illegal. Are you pretending that Walking-Liar is an unstable government to act as such, and kidnapp the Iranians Employees?. Even Iraqi minister of Interior stated the Iranians have established that liaison office long time ago (about 5-10 yrs).

As RandalDS says, Walking-Liar is looking for every single pretext to attack Iran. He is looking for the spark that will inflame the conflict between the two countries. Walking-Liar cannot handle diplomacy anymore, as are his commanders who are based in Israel and who remote-control all decisions regarding the Middle-East conflict.

One can say this war is fought by our American soldiers, by our tax-money, but the decisions and the outcome are not ours...

[randalds]

The problem here is that far too many people still support Bush (though it's dropping faster by the day) because they say things like "Well he wouldn't do that because it doesn't make sense" or "That can't be his reason for doing that because it doesn't make sense". Well it didn't make sense for him to launch a war of choice against a country that had nothing to do with terrorist attacks on us and base it on lies. He successfully lied us and the Congress into it because at the time most people didn't believe that any American president would do something that bad, that wrong and that stupid. Yet he did. We wanted to believe he knew something none of the rest did, but it's been shown that he didn't. He was just insane. And he is getting crazier by the day.

[randalds]

Iran is supporting those who are killing our soldiers as well as Iraqi soldiers, and are also killing civilians. How dare you compare them with George Bush? In war, people (including civilians) die, but it's for a cause. We're there for a cause: uprooting international terrorism, you may say otherwise, goes tell that to our soldiers fighting and dying for you! "...And conquer we must, for our cause it isn%u2019t just...."-exert, Star Spangled Banner. Was Francis Scott Key an inhumane moron too?

I compare them because in his insanity bush is more then willing to sacrifice as many of our troops as is necessary to start this war with Iran. To him they are just an expendable means to an end. He has no humanity when it comes to their deaths. None at all. As for civilians dying in war, yes that certainly does happen. But in this case they are dying for nothing beyond the Neoconservative madness of an American empire in the Middle-East. They are the ones pulling Bush' puppet strings by puffing up his already considerably inflated ego. They have him convinced that he is some sort of godlike crusader. Unless he is stopped, they and he will slaughter millions of innocent people to no good end.

[randalds]

George Bush is trying to preserve our way of life, and is taking extreme measures. Many hate and hated both of them, but that didn't stop their respective re-elections, and they persevered in what they believed was right.

Let's put it this was, if George Bush is there for self-interests, it isn't in his self-interest, because popular support's dropping fast.

Bush is a fanatic and like all fanatics doesnt have to make sense to anyone else to be making sense to himself. He is not try to preserve anything or he wouldn't be on a mission to destroy the very freedom he says he wants to defend. he doesn't care if his popular support is dropping now because he believes he has divine insight. That god has told him history ill show he was right. As for drawing a connection between him and Hitler, that's easy. They both had the same mental illness, Megalomania. Bush is well on his way to ending up every bit as insane as Hitler was. The scary part is that this particular lunatic has his finger on the nuclear trigger, rather then is hiding in a bunker ordering around troops that don't exist, though Bush has already started that process too by trying to start a war with Iran.

[randalds]

Of course his goal is to provoke war with Iran and I'm afraid he'll probably be successful because there are still people in America who can not bring themselves to accept that fact that Bush is mad. Insane. Mentally ill. He honestly sees himself as on a mission from God. he himself has said that God made him president at this point in history to spread god's gift of democracy throughout the middle east. He said that, not some left wing detractor. He did. That is insane. That is mentally unstable. You argue as if he wouldn't do these things because that don't make sense. Well in the normal sense they certainly don't, which is just more evidence of his mental illness. They make sense to him. He really honestly thinks that most Americans still support him because that's what he's chosen to believe. He's a lunatic.
