‘Fahrenheit 9/11’

Share article:

Unlike the bulk of the panicked knee-jerk Rightwing critics, I actually saw it.

And…wow…It’s a remarkable film. Fox News was right! (in general).

And that from a guy who thought I knew everything that I would see. I was wrong.

As are the yutz’ nattering on (and on) and blowing wind about the Saudi Flights and the Afghanistan Pipelines and anything else they are trying to come up with to try and discredit what they are so – justifiably – terrified of. For good reason. They are entirely missing the point. They might find that out if they bothered to see the film first.

More details tomorrow (later today, I guess)…

    So, Bush is sending out the troops to battle Michael Moore without any knowledge of what Michael Moore is saying.

    A leader would have to have incredibly poor judgment to send his forces out againt an enemy when they had no intelligence of the enemy’s strength, arsenal or intentions and no plan for bringing the conflict to a successful conclusion. Yet there’s something strangely familiar about that scenario.

    America has made al Qaeda very successful. Through Reagan, we nurtured, fed and armed them. bin Laden wanted Hussein’s secular government toppled, they wanted free rein in Iraq, and they wanted the world to hate America.

    While al Qaeda operatives roamed freely over most of the world, they couldn’t get a foothold in Iraq, except in the Kurdish north, where the U.S. protected them from Hussein.

    And now, in what must be to Osama bin Laden’s delight, Bush has toppled Saddam Hussein’s secular government, he has allowed al Qaeda into Iraq, giving them free rein, all the while making more people around the world hate the United States than ever have before.

    George W. Bush couldn’t possibly do a better job of giving al Qaeda what they want.

    But that’s OK by Bush and his supporters. Better to stick with what you believe than to ever accept reality.
