now i'll have to wait out the few days of american celebration but -- let's see if the attacks on american troops actually stop. i mean, as President Bush said over and over again (anbd actually about every single mastermind of terror he was actually after), this was only one man and thus of very little importance. someone on the left needs to get those quotes out before Bush straddles up in front of the press and smirks before the world.
it is good news. but lets remember that it has actually nothing to do with the War on Terror.
and that the daily attacks will continue. even more so now, i believe.
. . . . . . .
update:
watching all the media coverage of this on tv this morning, i couldn't help but a) feel sick after 10 minutes of watching and hearing the same stuff over and over again on every avalable network, b) notice how no one except the CBC mentioned for more than a second if this would have an actual impact on the bloodshed in Iraq, and c) how much the Hussein medical examination video (btw, why was this released? why not just footage of him getting hauled off or something? no one gets their med exam video released to the entire public. the morals involved are sketchy at best) reminded me of Hannibal. mean, that med guy looking Hussein up, from up close, he must've felt shivers down his spine, uh? i know i would.
i actually feel sorry for Hussein today. not because he's been captured. he was a tyrant. but now he looks resigned. he knows what's coming and he's accepted it. fine. thank god he didn't put up a fight. thank god the americans now have no choice but to put him in a public trial. thank god the entre world is watching.
i would assume he has a whole lot of things to say to the world population about the u.s.
btw, tell me one thing he ever did to the u.s. to warrant his country being bombed and invaded. just one thing.
al-qaeda, bin laden, and saudi arabia attacked new york on sept 11. ...and the u.s. attacked iraq. nice going. now they gotta see this to the end if they wanna leave better off than before they attacked it. again, nice going.
this is not the guy we wanted. this man never attacked the u.s. of a.
i just hope people can remember that in all this "brutal dictatorship/mass graves" resume the american news organizations keep throwing on the air today.
a brutal dictator has been caught.
but then what?
you can keep saying he was "terrorizing" his people but that doesn't have anything to do with the actual "war on terror" this administration so proudly trademarked to justify this invasion of iraq. other countries are doing far worse things to their people than hussein ever did. why not bomb them? why was iraq such a pressing target?
can you say "the bushies have no balls and their friends were the ones who hit new york on sept 11 so let's find us a target - fast"?
let's not forget that small simple fact, okay?
i hope the Dems get their balls back on for once and stop being such pussies about this administration. Clark was starting to look really good in the past few weeks. i hope he continues.
what do they have to lose, anyway??
