Appeasement & Liberal SF Stupidity!
Appeasement & Liberal SF Stupidity!
The Bush administration has given few details of possible military action. “On the military front we're making progress,” President George W. Bush said Monday.
Earlier, British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw told the Labor Party conference that those who oppose strong action against international terrorism are the equivalent of those who sought to appease the Nazis in the 1930s.
"If we believe that those who planned, organized and perpetrated the attacks in New York, Washington and Pittsburgh can be dealt with by negotiation and reason, we wholly delude ourselves," Straw said. "Like fascists, these people are driven by hate, violence and destruction."
Don't you understand that we're attacking the military targets, and infrastructure - not the civilians! We're dropping food to the citizens of Afghanistan and bombing the Taliban's airfields, weaponry, Terrorist training camps & communications etc. - also the coalition of America & the UK in which you live, is not attempting to bomb Osama Bin Laden. Beware of Psychology warfare and Propaganda warfare. Get it straight - or are you purposely ignoring, distorting and exaggerating the facts?
Collateral damage and wounding or killing of individuals will happen. If you purposely exaggerate the collateral damage; you are just jumping on the peacenik bandwagon again.

Straw tells us that "the terrorists" (very vaguely defined term) are like Hitler. That doesn't mean we should believe him. After all, Bush Sr. told us Saddam Hussein is Hitler, but left him in place. The US and its allies have been responsible, from bombings and embargoes, for the deaths of 500,000 children alone - at least a million adults as well.
"we're bombing the infrastructure, not the civilians" - what infrastructure? Barely anything exists in Afghanistan. And plenty of people have died - more than died in WTC. Those daisy cutters - weapons of mass destruction - sure take out a lot.
"we're dropping food" - pure propaganda. Search on the web for what Doctors Without Borders (Medecins Sans Frontiers) say about it.
Are we "purposely ignoring, distorting and exaggerating the facts?" - on the contrary, the US mainstream media is doing this. Inconvenient facts - like more than 3000 civilian casualties - are not mentioned.
Wake up, indeed. Corporate media is taking you for a ride. It's the government's "Psychology warfare and Propaganda warfare".
