Red Blogule to the "COMMANDER IN THIEF" (continued)

Archives 20040817

(discussion following the previous blogule: some newsflash for Bush, part of the planning and training for 9/11 was performed in Germany)

Here's another newsflash, Dubya: there may be oil in Iraq, but there may be nukes in North Korea and the former soviet states. Too bad your Texas buddies don't give a Hoover Dam about other energy sources...

Red Blogule to the "COMMANDER IN THIEF"

Archives 20040816 (see blogules 2004)

Caught stealing bases, our "Commander In Thief" manages to collect a few hundred thousand votes withdrawing troops from countries where the US are unlikely to strike soon (unless the neocons want to hunt some "weasels" in Germany, that is).

How are the boys supposed to take that in Baghdad, Dubya ? Do 70,000 happy families compensate the 1,000 or so stricken by a death provoked by your stubbornness, the few thousands coping with a wounded relative ?

Now you pretend to be a "Peace President". Considering the excuse of a war you set up, I'd rather not see you destroy the image of peace I have. Go back to your ranch and shoot some ducks with your pal Dick (tip: book in advance). Leave the commands to someone who knows about risking his own skin, dodging real bullets (and sometimes receiving others) instead of dodging his duties (and sometimes stealing others).

Red Blogule to the Bush imposture - Bush is neither FDR nor Churchill

FRENCH VERSION PUBLISHED IN "LE FIGARO" (20040606)

France cannot thank the US enough for the 1944 Liberation.

But I cannot accept the indecence of Bush when he dares comparing himself to FDR and Churchill, comparing post-war Iraq and post-war Europe. If a comparison were to be made, 1918-19 would be more suitable than 1944-45. The poor handling of the victory vs Germany shaped the next World War and was key to the rise of Hitler.

As a Frenchman I'm ashamed of the way we humiliated Germany back then with the Versailles treaty, even occupying part of their country and exploiting their natural ressources in key industrial regions (without the help of Halliburton but as boldly).

Among the frustrated, a young wounded Austrian soldier overwhelmed by his own anger. His name : Adolf Hitler.
