Bush's Nobel Cause
So this is the "noble cause" the troops are dying for and King George is occupying a country for. A theocratic country that will be modeled after that great beacon of democracy itself...IRAN. Congratulations George you did one hell of a job of promoting democracy and freedom there!!
Via WaPo,a draft constitution has been submitted the Iraqi Parliament. Here are some of the highlites of that draft:Shiites and Kurds were sending a draft constitution to parliament on Monday that would fundamentally change Iraq, transforming the country into a loose federation, with a weak central administration governed by Islamic law, negotiators said. The draft, slated for action by a Monday deadline, would be a sweeping rejection of the demands of Iraq's disaffected Sunni minority, which has called the proposed federal system the start of the breakup of Iraq. Shiites and Kurds indicated they were in no mood to compromise[snip] The draft, slated for action by a Monday deadline, would be a sweeping rejection of the demands of Iraq's disaffected Sunni minority, which has called the proposed federal system the start of the breakup of Iraq. Shiites and Kurds indicated they were in no mood to compromise.[snip] Key provisions of the draft would formalize an already autonomous Kurdish state in the north, under a federal system. The rest of the country also would be allowed to form federal systems -- opening the way for the demand by the dominant Shiite Supreme Council for Islamic Revolution in Iraq to create a southern Shiite sub-state out of up to half of Iraq's 18 regions. Sunnis and others say such a state would be under heavy influence from neighboring, Shiite-ruled Iran. The draft also stipulates that Iraq is an Islamic state and that no law can contradict the principles of Islam, Shiite and Kurdish negotiators said. Opponents have charged that last provision would subject Iraqis to religious edicts by individual clerics.Yep, King George at his best. Now we have two versions of Iran to be concerned about. I sure hope George doesn't plan on having any control over that oil or permanent military bases there. And womens' rights? HA! FAT CHANCE!! If this is even close to how the final constitution will look like, I have a news flash for ya Georgie............YOU LOST THE WAR........and worse......ALL THOSE YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN DIED FOR NOTHING!!!!! Some noble cause that all turned out to be. Can you say Vietnam? UPDATED....Via Reuters "The establishment of a democratic constitution will be a landmark event in the history of Iraq, in the history of the Middle East," Bush said in a speech to U.S. veterans. He said all of Iraq's main ethnic and religious groups are working together on it and "made a courageous choice to join the political process and together they will produce a constitution that reflects the values and traditions of the Iraqi people."Now we have King George calling a country with its' people living under Islamic Shia law, a country that all but ignores the minority Sunni population, a democracy. What a total sham. This traitor to all that is American should be brought before the international court on war crimes charges. And to think the right-wing media mouthpieces denegrde Cindy Sheehan. You mean to tell me he was killed for THIS?? What a friggin outrage. And George is too damn stupid to even see what is happening right before his eyes, while at the same time Afghanistan is falling to the Taliban once again. Why? Because King George left it high and dry to head for the oil in Iraq. |

Doesn't sound like democracy to me either.
