• Impeach the War Criminals, Put The Scoundrels Leading You In Prison

  [Read the article: Beyond the Multiplex]

  I don't understand what all the fuss is about. The reality is very simple indeed:

  GW Bush and Gang, far from being 'the good guys', LIED in all directions to get get the US into the war that had actually been planned long before 9/11. (In fact, there were very simple ways by which the whole world, including most of the Islamic world, could have been brought to fight a real war against terror after 9/11 - check out: "Avoid Osama's Trap", by Bernard Haykel, published 25th September, 2001 - http://www.hinduonnet.com/thehindu/2001/09/25/stories/05252523.htm. Instead of doing the moral, correct (and commonsense) things that they could have, GW Bush and Gang deliberately ignored all of that for their own mad reasons - and went out like Rambo to fight their phony wars (in Afghanistan and then in Iraq).

  -- GW Bush and Gang LIED to US citizens to get them into the 'right mood for war'. (And US citizens, scared witless and shitless by 9/11, bought the lying arguments of GW Bush and Gang).

  -- They LIED to the US Congress to get the funding for their war. (And most members of the US Congress, also scared witless and shitless by 9/11, bought the lying arguments of GW Bush and Gang and gave them all the funds needed to fight that phony war - the real cost of GW Bush's foolish wars is well into trillions of dollars by now).

  -- They LIED to the world in attempts to justify their war. (But only the <'coalition of the willing' - more properly known as Bush's poodles) - bought those lying arguments).

  So what is the current argument about? GW Bush and Gang are "the good guys"? Don't make us laugh even more at you than we are already! They are WAR CRIMINALS plain and simple - and they should be treated as war criminals.

  What US citizens need to do with the war criminals currently leading their nation is very simple indeed: IMPEACH GW Bush, Dick Cheney, and whoever in that Gang of War Criminals is impeachable under US law. Then put the whole bunch into prison for their crimes - or hand them over to an International Court of Justice, which should have the courage to put the whole lying bunch into prison for the rest of their natural lives (if found guilty, of course). Then US citizens need to work to become a democracy - government of the people; by the people; of the people. (That would really be 'Mission Accomplished!"). Currently the US is a government of the people - but by war criminals, for war criminals.

  If US citizens are unwilling to do what's right (or at least to publicly proclaim their opposition to the War Criminal Bunch leading them), then they must be adjudged to be complicit in the crimes committed by their 'leaders' (much as many Germans of the 1930s and '40s had been judged to be complicit, on 'moral grounds' at least, in the crimes of the Nazis).

• What King George Should Do NOW!!

  [Read the article: All hail the king]
  [Read more letters about this article: Here]

  Here are a few things that GW Bush, King of the USA, should do NOW to retrieve his falling ratings. He should:

  +++

  1. Put on that itty-bitty, teeny-weeny, polka-dot flying suit (the very same one if possible that he used for his famous flight to the deck of the USS Abraham Lincoln).

  2. Stuff enough handkerchiefs into his pants. (Last time around, with only three handkerchiefs, it didn't look impressive enough. Six is good).

  3. Fly off in one of those fancy jet planes at his command to one of the aircraft carriers roaming around the Persian Gulf. (Ensuring, if course, that there is an experienced and skilled real pilot to take the controls for the take-offs, the landings and all the hard parts of the flight).

  (He should NOT forget to carry plenty of phony, photogenic Thanksgiving turkey with him).

  4. Swagger onto the deck of the chosen and blessed aircraft carrier. (Come to think of it, the USS Abraham Lincoln is, I think, right there in the Persian Gulf, ready and waiting to welcome The Commander-In-Chief onto its flight deck!)

  5. Distribute turkey to his loyal men and women on the aircraft carrier. He should tell them, "I just wanted someplace I could get a hot meal with my troops..." (Aside to handlers: Ensure plenty of TV coverage, press photographs, the whole media blitz!) Just watch how all eyes all over the ship and all over the US will tear up at this powerful demonstration of courage, fellow-feeling and sincerity by the Commander-In-Chief!

  6. Announce very loudly to the world:

  "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!!" (Smirk)

  7. Fly back home to the USA. (Ensuring, of course, that there is an experienced and skilled real pilot to take the controls for the take-offs, the landings and all the hard parts of the flight).

  +++

  And just watch how those ratings will zoom again for sure after this brilliant Rovian exercise!! US citizens have been proven to be stupid enough to buy this kind of display in the past - for sure they will buy it again. You may not be able to fool all of them all the time, but you sure can fool enough of them all the time to do anything you want!
