Search for Banned Arms In Iraq Ended Last Month (washingtonpost.com): "The hunt for biological, chemical and nuclear weapons in Iraq has come to an end nearly two years after President Bush ordered U.S. troops to disarm Saddam Hussein. The top CIA weapons hunter is home, and analysts are back at Langley." It would be nice if all those people that said that we (the anti-war people) were traitors and terrorist sympathizers would all come over and make nice; maybe bring over some chip and dip, salsa and a movie. And apologize, saying "Hey, you know you guys really WERE putting the best interests of the American people first and saying what needed to be said in the face of extreme political pressure. We need more people like you that will stand up for truth!" But I'm a grownup and I know better. People won't stop identifying with those political leaders that were wrong just because the truth has come out. I understand that its about power. Its still hard to be against the Iraq invasion and occupation, even now, after its become obvious that this little adventure has become a huge noose around our necks. Its not as scary as it used to be. Bush, the Military and Wall Street are still the face of power for the upper class of American society, and sadly most working and middle class Americans still think that they can ride the coat-tails of the powerful to a better life. How much abuse will we take before we wake up? |
