"A lot of people in America see this as a confrontation between good and evil, including me," Bush said during a 1 1/2-hour Oval Office conversation on cultural changes and a battle with terrorists that he sees lasting decades.
When it comes to picking battles, this guy is a complete fool with total disregard for America. Instead of focusing on the hunt for actual terrorists, he is fanning the flames of a war based on religion that will, without a doubt, last decades and create far more terrorism than we initially faced.
That will be the Bush legacy. Hang that in his fucking presidential library.
hat tip - Shakes who lays it out there as well as anyone:
There are causes of terrorism which can be addressed, and just because terrorists are despicable people who use horrendous tactics is not a justification for ignoring what induces them. In reality, dismissing terrorists as blindly evil is to suggest that there’s no solution to the problem except total annihilation, which is simply not even possible. Once again, Bush illustrates that he is patently incapable of engaging this complex problem with the rigorous intricacy it requires.
Damn.. that is good!
U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan said Wednesday that most leaders in the Middle East believe the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq and its aftermath is "a real disaster" for the region. "They believe it has destabilized the region."Annan said many leaders believed the United States should stay until Iraq improves [what are the chances of that?], while others, such as Iran said the United States should leave immediately. That means that the United States has found itself in the difficult position where "it cannot stay and it cannot leave."
What a fine mess....
