American Officials Know Best In Iraq. Eat Your Vegetables, Maliki. July 23, 2007

Kim Gamel of the AP has a piece in the Globe today about the U.S. and Iran finally meeting for talks on Iraq. Probably not really going to have talks, just going to have the American rep walk in the room, lecture the Iranians about not helping the Iraqi fighters, create bad feelings, and leave. That’s pretty much what passes for diplomacy from the Bush bunch.

But the real laugher comes later on:

American officials have pressed Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and Parliament to pass laws the United States deems essential to restoring stability in Iraq, and the oil bill is at the top of the list.

Oh, yeah, let’s restore stability. We invade, illegally, we occupy, illegally, we slaughter, illegally. We destroy the country based on a tissue of lies from a pack of ignorant, arrogant, money- and power-hungry psychotics. And now these people are telling the Iraqis what laws to pass to ‘restore stability’.

American Officialdom: arrogant know-nothings who do maximum damage while hiding behind desks in Washington.

The Iraqis, and the Iranians, should spit in our face.

Joe Lieberman, Neo-Con Lovebug June 11, 2007

Joe Lieberman, the fake Democrat from Connecticut, wants ‘us’ to attack Iran. We should first note that when a clown like Lieberman says ‘we’ in situations like this, he means your kid should go die, and a bunch of innocent people of non-American nationality should be shredded by U. S. weaponry, while he and his stand safely far behind the action and don’t stand to lose a penny.

The Associated Press says:

“I think we’ve got to be prepared to take aggressive military action against the Iranians to stop them from killing Americans in Iraq,” said Lieberman.

…”We’ve said so publicly that the Iranians have a base in Iran at which they are training Iraqis who are coming in and killing Americans. By some estimates, they have killed as many as 200 American soldiers,” Lieberman said on CBS’s ‘Face the Nation’.

Wait, wait, so it’s not Iranians killing Americans, Joe, it’s Iraqi fighters who are smart enough to go get some good training so they return to their country to kill the soldiers who illegally invaded and occupied Iraq and are responsible for the utter maelstrom of death and destruction there.

So Lieberman wants to kill Iranians because Iraqi patriots are killing American invaders? Joe, Joe, Joe, c’mon, you’ve proven your irrelevance and the complete failure of reason inside your brain. Stand down and let the Republicans make such ridiculous arguments. It suits them. You just look silly doing it.
