US military limits Uzbek activity
By Adam Brookes
BBC Pentagon correspondent



Gen Abizaid commands US forces
in the Middle East and Central
Asia

The head of US Central Command, Gen John Abizaid, says the US military is limiting its operations in Uzbekistan because of the recent violence there.
(snip)

US forces will continue their work in Uzbekistan but on a limited scale, Gen Abizaid said.

He said the move was prudent in light of recent violence there.

Bt he insisted this was not intended to be a political message of disapproval to Uzbekistan's president, Islam Karimov.

1. And when Karimov becomes a "monster" and an "evil-doer" and
"worse than Hitler"...oops I forgot to add the hysteria;

MONSTER! EVIL-DOER! WORSE THAN HITLER!

...all the photos and video of rice and powell and cheney the dick and bush shaking Karimov's hand and hugging him will never be shown by the US State Media and rightwingnuts will deny such pics ever existed (they're all photo-shopped by them evel libruls!) exactly as the photos of rummy shaking Hussein's hand were never shown by the US State Media and denied by the rightwingnuts (evel libruls!).


And good Americans will die in that War of Lies.

3. Why should bushites disapprove of a torturing murderer?

Birds of a feather.

Headline is false. We are not limiting Uzbek activity one bit. We support it.
