Leaving Iraq is Not Admitting Defeat - It Is Admitting We Were Wrong; And That’s is the Real Truth!

I am American. I love my country. I live every moment of my life reaching out to my fellow citizens in order to teach them how to bypass the cloak of reality wrapped around this nation by the establishment media. And I can say this: I am a patriot when I say: not only can America not win in Iraq, but we have already lost and we should have lost, because we were wrong! Period, end of story.


Trying to blame Democrats for wanting to end the travesty known as the invasion of Iraq is like trying to blame a judge for releasing from prison a person who was innocent of a crime! Again I ask a question that I ask almost every day; are all Americans insane? Is it not now crystal (or should I say Kristol) clear that our invasion of Iraq was a criminal act against a falsely accused adversary?

The moment it became crystal (or should I say Kristol) clear that Iraq did not have WMD, the people of America should have collectively declared an apology to the Iraqi people. The moment it became crystal (or should I say Kristol) clear that Iraq had nothing to do with the events of 9/11, the people of America should have collectively declared an apology to the Iraqi people. And the moment it became crystal (or should I say Kristol) clear that the Bush/PNAC administration knew all along that Iraq posed absolutely no threat or potential threat to the people of the United States, the people of America should have declared a collective citizens arrest of the members of the Bush administration who were hell bent on taking this nation to war with Iraq, even if they had to create a false flag operation as sadistic and brutal as the events of 9/11 in order to do so!

The discussions taking place about trying to win something in Iraq are as immoral and obscene as cheering on a bully who is beating a defenseless, weak, unarmed school kid . While it is no surprise to me that right wing neo-fascist bigots have no problem murdering people who don’t look like them and believe in the same fairy tale god as they do, it is the hypocritical lefties that disgust me the most because they know better and they simply refuse to do and say the right thing because they may lose their jobs.

You know, sometimes you have say what is right. I lost a lot of friends years ago because I tried to inform them about the disconnect between the official story of 9/11 and the official body of evidence as recorded by those same officials who created the myth known as the official 9/11 story. I did not fold, I did not run, I simply repeated the known facts and dealt with the ramifications. Now those former friends are calling me and telling me that I was right all along. In the meantime, my convictions remained steadfast. I saw elections stolen, and I said it. I saw very disturbing aspects of the events of 9/11, and I said it. I saw lie after lie blurted out about Iraq, and I shot back educating those around me about the lies. And time has proven me right about everything.

But I watch with disgust as the political adversaries of the Bush administration , mostly those in the Democratic party, twiddle their thumbs and remain silent because they fear the ramifications that may result from having to accuse a so called American President of the highest crimes ever committed by an American against Americans. (To me, George W. Bush not the President. He is in office via electoral coup and is therefore an enemy of the state; an invader who came in and took over the presidency by force.) Instead of standing up and screaming at the top of their, lungs the opposition plays politics. They follow orders given by people above and beyond the system. They ignore the electorate and they pretend that there is not ample evidence to question virtually every action of the Bush administrations.

I am sick. I am tired. And I am disgusted. We will not win in Iraq because we should not win in Iraq, and that is the truth.

1. As I have said many times, this is about the Repugs PRIDE

They will never admit that they made a mistake, and they don't care how many
lives are lost. It is all about their ego.
After all they are Reublicans first, and Americans second.

2. You are exactly right.
Every reason we were given for going into Iraq was a lie. Every one of them. You don't just go invade a sovereign nation because you don't like the leader.

And, I must point out: We were the ones who more or less installed Saddam into that position. We can thank Reagan and Bush I for that. We create our own problems, and our own enemies, and it's always so that we can line corporate pockets it seems.

Greed is ugly. One look at George Bush and the Republicans prove it. Have you ever seen an attractive Republican? Think about it.

4. The right wing delusion
The right wing delusion is that the United States has the authority ,the power and the ability to control all events and peoples all over the world, all the time. It just isn't true.
