| | It's President Bush's lucky day...
Four years seems to be long enough in the government's mind for Americans to forget everything they were told. We got into Iraq because Bush and his pals kept on repeating over and over again that Sadaam had weapons. Forget the fact that he didn't give us any proof, just saying the same lie over and over again turns out to be a surprisingly effective tactic to make someone believe you, and they're at it again pretending to tattle on Iran.
You know how the terrorists in the Middle East get people to believe their perverted view of things? That the West (and especially the Jews) are determined to wipe out their culture and way of life and replace it with their own? It's because THEY ARE TOLD THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN, AND THEY DON'T LOOK FOR PROOF...aka, brainwashing. This is EXACTLY what this government has already done to it's citizens, and now they're already underway with round two.
I even remember reading and posting another article from BBC about how the UN found that America was trying to falsify evidence to make it seem as if Iran was developing nuclear weapons as opposed to just nuclear energy as it claims. Unfortunately I couldn't find that article.
Feeling skeptical? Good, means you're trying to use your head instead of blindly accepting what I say. But here are a few key excerpts from a BBC news article that should help change your mind. They describe the so-called "proofs" Bush provided that Iran is funding terrorists in Iraq, and more.
Now I'm not saying Iran's a saint here, but there are a whole lot of other places that are far more deserving of military intervention. Places like N. Korea and Darfur come to mind. Oh, and I almost forgot about AFGHANISTAN where the Taliban are slowly returning! And it might be worth mentioning a certain other country (that shall remain unnamed since I don't like be called an anti-semetic) that likes to level cities and kill thousands of innocent civilians in a country it illegally occupied for twenty years (and still has other territories being occupied illegally) all for the supposed sake of getting back two low ranking soldiers.
Of course, the U.S. is buddy buddy with them so I don't think that'll be happening anytime soon.
Edit: Here's another pic that I just found on Leonidas' xanga. It speaks volumes about the current state of affairs, and it was found on yahoo news of all places! Pay special attention to the reports on the second and third lines...ring any bells?:

" No evidence was produced, other than a suggestion that
the Iranian-supported Lebanese group Hezbollah had also used such
charges, so the common origin had to be Iran."
"At the moment, the US lacks a casus belli and by
claiming that Iran is responsible for killing USA troops, it could be
laying the groundwork for a 'self-defence' justification, according to
this theory. The new chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee,
Senator John Rockefeller said recently: 'To be quite honest, I'm a
little concerned that it's Iraq again.' "
"Many people will not distinguish between the Shia
militias that Iran is said to supply - and which have ties to the Iraqi
government - and the Sunni insurgents who have been the cause of much
of the violence. The allegedly Iranian supplied bombs are said to have
caused the deaths of 170 American soldiers, but overall 2497 soldiers
have been killed in hostile incidents, most of them at hands of the
Sunnis. The claim serves the purpose of helping to lay the blame for the whole insurgency at Iran's door.""[The weapons Iran is allegedly supplying] are said to be provided by Iran in kit form and to be smuggled across the often-open border. However the officials who presented the evidence could not make a direct link to Iran." "Against the inference that this all comes from Iran is
the concept that Iraqis themselves would be capable of copying a design
and therefore do not need to get bombs from Iran.
And there have been a number of news reports over the
last year expressing scepticism, even among military personnel, about
the link to Iran.
The Washington Post reported last October that British troops in the south doubted the claim.
A year ago, the London Times said that British officers
in Basra had stopped making any such claim, saying only that the
technology matched bomb-making found elsewhere in the Middle East,
including Lebanon and Syria." |
