Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7Freedom fighters were not killed in Fallujah.
The citizens murdered by Bush's Marine murderers was innocent and civilian.
Just as in New Orleans - murdered by Bush's policies!!
The white hillbillies of Louisiana who voted for Bush - how come none of them were left in the superdome to rape and riot???
72 billiondollars were approved for the reinforcement of the levee system surrounding New Orelans last year. The money never materialised instead it went to 'other projects'. The only other project putting a dint in the US budget is Iraq.
So you can see clearly now how if Bush stopped bombing Fallujah, his fellow Americans in the South may not have had to die.
He dosent care,he's incapable of it. He refers to refugees as "those people in that part of the world"
He might also have an education system in which 64% of the male population is barley literate, or a health service which could take care of all the sick who cannot afford it. But if people are healthy AND educated you might have a problem of control which wouldn't make the mulitnational Cheney, woolfowitz, pearle, Rummy, Gates Amoco,Shell etc...etc.. companies happy.
Who benefits from this Bush created hurricane?
You can rest assured only BIG BUSINESS will get the rebuilding contracts for New Orleans!!! No small time, self-employed brickies or plumbers will get the big contracts. Wake up!! Qui bono?
FOLLOW THE MONEY!
Why are they always talking about how angry "Mother Nature" is with them ? It God Stupid!
The Big Lie that has been Amerika since they pretended to land a man on the moon is crumbling like a wet digestive.
An this is only the beginning.......yeehhhhhaaaaaaw!
Roll on the second American civil war (that IS what the homeland security is really for)
This is what America gets when they start fighting wars in the name of God - the WRATH of God! Only the innocent people get hurt not the neo-cons that rule america.
What goes around comes around..........
And this is only the beginning.
When Bush gets around to appointing his fascist cronies to the Supreme Court then the fireworks begin.
Just wait until they ban abortions - claiming to save the lives of unborn children.
But who benefits??? - Big business like Halliburton!!!
