Iraq Reviews > War in Iraq, George W. Bush : SOUTHERNHELL.COM

[SOUTHERNHELL.COM]  The all-powerful dictator who once had thirty-seven palaces was living in a few cubic feet underneath a mud hut.  Bush immediately went on television to trumpet his capture, “I say to the Iraqi people, ‘You will not have to live in fear of Saddam ever again.’”  But elsewhere, there was little to crow about.

[Truthdig: Drilling Beneath the Headlines] Fred Branfman: 5 Million Iraqis Killed, Maimed, Tortured ...: Does it matter that those who justified the Iraqi invasion in the name of the people of Iraq have largely ignored their unimaginable suffering under U.S. occupation, as more than 5 million civilians have been murdered, maimed, made homeless, unjustly imprisoned and tortured—and millions more impoverished? Would war supporters serve themselves and their nation if they wrote about both the humanity and suffering of, say, just 10 Iraqi victims—and sought to convey how each represents at least 500,000 more?

[Truthout - All Articles] t r u t h o u t | Out of Iraq? Maybe Not.: The responses I read here seem to lean along the vein of "get us out and forget the Iraqis." While it was the stupidity of Bush and Cheney that got our nation involved in Iraq to begin with, at this point we all have an obligation to leave the people of Iraq in a better situation than we made for them.

[Truthout - All Articles] t r u t h o u t | In Final Days, Bush Pushes for Iraq's Oil: This is not tit for tat it means answering all the Cindy Sheehan`s right to hear the truth or at the very least take some solace in the knowledge BUSHCO INC choked on "yellowcake" and the world decides who runs Iraq`s oil NOT "US and British oil companies and the Bush administration have been circling their wagons in Iraq over the last few months to bring both the SOFA and the Iraq oil law to a conclusion before Bush's term in office officially comes to a close," Juhasz told Truthout. "The Bush administration, US oil companies and the al-Maliki government are all on the same timeline for trying to lock in the continued presence of the US military in Iraq, which is the al-Maliki government's only hope of holding on to power - and US oil corporations' only hope of securing their long-sought control over Iraqi oil."

However, as the sectarian violence escalated in central Iraq throughout 2006 and the first half of 2007, the Coalition Forces requested these Kurdish guards and army units to temporarily be deployed to the provinces of Baghdad, Diyala, Salahaddin, and Mosul to keep the peace and participate in civil military affairs.

[Marc Jampole's Blog] Jampole Communications: No one knew how to get out of it.  The unstated assumption that I think most of us would share is that no one knew how to leave Afghanistan without getting bludgeoned by the right wing media that now sets the terms of debate in the mainstream news media.  Right-wingers would shout out their typical litany of incendiary catch-phrases: Weak on defense!  Couldn’t do what was needed! Put America’s security at risk!  In fact I think the reason that President Obama escalated the Afghanistan War was so he wouldn’t take heat for drawing down Iraqi troops.  Escalate in Afghanistan while leaving Iraq was his plan even as a candidate.
