Did I miss something? When did we as a nation get to completely totally insane land?
It throughly frightens me that our nation has announced that it will gladly use “overwhelming force” to smack around anybody who uses WMD on us, or who we find out is planning on using WMD on us, up to and including nukes. And we don’t have a problem with a preemptive strike, not if it’s in our best interests to shoot first and ask questions later.
This kind of foreign policy is going to make it tough for America to get through the next decade, let alone the next century. We might as well have told the world, “If you even think about messing with Beavis and Butthead, they will throw down and blow your ass away!”
And now Bush has painted himself into a corner with all his rhetoric that war is all but guaranteed. Watch CNN, MSNBC, or any mainstream news program for 30 minutes or so, and be frightened — their “news” coverage plays like an informercial for destruction. This is the helicopter that we’ll use for urban combat. These are the fighters that will fly over Iraq. These are the bombs that we’ll drop on Saddam’s palaces; see how they penetrate deep into this fortified bunker?
Condoleeza Rice sure seems like a smart girl, but I can’t for the life of me figure out why she seems determined to start World War III.
And the polls say most Americans are okay with this, even supportive. I would like to think that the polls are presented purely from a propaganda perspective, but then consider the average American citizen’s grasp of geopolitics (heck, consider the average citizen’s grasp of history, or geography!). I think people just don’t get it. The potential ramifications of what we as a country are saying and doing are of the gravest nature.
I ask you — WTF??
