THE PAST IS OVER
Why are we expected to forget the past (like Ronny and Rummy), while you guys go on and on about things which don't matter any more.
De Gaulle trusted the US because they hadn't done all the shitty things you've done since WWII.
NOBODY in the world trusts or even likes the US any more. You've managed to piss of nearly every nation on this globe and are continuing to make more and more enemies everywhere, especially in countries, like the UK, which you think are your friends. You will see how much you are liked come the next UK elections. Blair is behind the Social Democrats! Even UKIP is beating Labour's ass in areas they used to dominate.
The war in Iraq is hugely unpopular in Britain, but I doubt you know that, seeing as you didn't even know about the effects of the 45 minutes scandal on Tony Blair's political career!
Why are you telling Taiwan to aim missiles (which you sold them) at the
Three Gorges Dam! Why are you fucking with the Chinese? Why did you not apologise to them when one of your spy planes got knocked down? You said you were sorry that your plane went down, not that it was in Chinese airspace, in the first place. I don't think that this was quite the answer you Why does your current administration think it can ignore internationally-agreed treaties, like Kyoto, when the rest of the world agreed; tearing up arms limitation agreements and laughing at anyone who tried to tell you that wasn't cool?
Why do you not see that having a president whose Daddy has (had?) an oil services company, and a vice president who was CEO of a major oil-industry-related company and who is still a major shareholder; when the majority of Bush's campaign funds comes from oil-related donors. Why does this not make the rest of the world think that the fact that you invaded Iraq was because you wanted to control the oil supply?
I know that you think this all this power is great and that watching GI's kicking Iraqi ass on Fox makes you think that your country is the mightiest and the best and that you are invincible... but how long can you continue to fight? I understand you are still pissed about 9/11. I was too. It was the single most shocking thing I have ever witnessed and I could not believe it was actually happening. I wept for the people I saw jumping to their deaths and for everybody else who died that day. But lashing out blindly at Afghanistan, in pain and rage was a mistake. It was exactly what the perpetrators wanted you to do. Whoever planned and executed it knew what you would do next. The UN helped you to eject the Taliban from Afghanistan and we thought you'd be satisfied, but it was just the beginning. Afghanistan was barely under control when you started demanding we attack Iraq, a country that had no proven ties with Al Queda and no current WMD manufacturing program. Now you want to attack Iran and are already starting the old "they're building a bomb" chicken little stylee rhetoric.
Will you stop when you get OBL? Why haven't you managed to find him? You are somewhat better-equipped than he is. You have satellites which can read the lettering on the side of an AK-47 and yet he remains At Large. Why is that? Has it ever occured to you that he might be the Boogie Man, or whatever terrible monster it was that your parents might have made up to scare you into doing what they wanted? Without him you don't really have a reason to continue wreaking vengeance on the Arab World for 9/11. Maybe that's why he's managed to disappear.
You can't maintain this. Your deficit is reaching unbelievable levels. You buy far, far, faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar more than you sell. You've deliberately devalued your currency and it's still huge. You are making yourselves more and more vulnerable to collapse and if you carry on fighting unsustainable wars in the Middle East, it will. And if the US economy collapses (again, remember the Great Depression) then we all feel the pinch.
Your Ivory Towers are rotting and crumbling at the base. Multinationals are exporting your jobs at an unbelievable rate and the government's blaming the job shortage on the immigrants. Never mind, when your government finally bans anybody from entering the US, which is what it seems to be trying to do, then YOU can do all the shitty jobs that they currently do, because all the IT, service, farming, manufacturing, etc. jobs will be in countries where highly skilled workers will do you job for a fraction of the price. This is not a political issue, it is purely economic and will happen regardless of who you vote for.
The scales have shifted, my friends. Bush and his buddies are selling your country from under your feet while Rupert Murdoch tells you everything's OK and when you suddenly find that your job's been Offshored, Bush and Cheney will be sitting, out of reach, on an enormous stack of money, smoking cuban cigars and laughing at you. They are politicians, they are oilmen and they do NOT have anybody's best interests at heart, other than their own.
