Rumsfeld on Increased Resistance
#2540077 - 04/08/04 04:14 PM (19 years, 11 months ago) |

from the Chicago Tribune:
"What we're witnessing in Iraq today is a power play between those who favor terrorism and a return to oppression, and those determined to have freedom and self-government," said Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld in a news briefing Wednesday. "The United States and our partners and free Iraqi forces are taking the battle to the terrorists."
I see US marines fighting, but where are the serious Pro-coalition Iraqi troops joining the battle alongside US troops?
-------------------- The proof is in the pudding.

Depends on who's side you're on, and who's propaganda you've been listening to.
Or, more probable, it's one oppressor fighting another oppressor. Neither care for freedom, both care for power, and this war is still completely unjustified.
-------------------- So long as you are praised think only that you are not yet on your own path but on that of another.

We don't need any help. We're only facing pockets of resistance.

I don't take anything Rumsfeld says seriously. The man is either a fucking liar or grossly incompetent, dangerous either way.
-------------------- The above is an extract from my fictional novel, "The random postings of Edame". In the beginning was the word. And man could not handle the word, and the hearing of the word, and he asked God to take away his ears so that he might live in peace without having to hear words which might upset his equinamity or corrupt the unblemished purity of his conscience. And God, hearing this desperate plea from His creation, wrinkled His mighty brow for a moment and then leaned down toward man, beckoning that he should come close so as to hear all that was about to be revealed to him. "Fuck you," He whispered, and frowned upon the pathetic supplicant before retreating to His heavens.
