Can bush LIE us into other wars? His track record is pretty good.
Yesterday bush revealed that he had fooled us all and the wars were started for reasons other than those originally stated, or, he lied us into two wars, and said if you don't like it, you can suck on it.

Now we are going through the exact same war preludes, it worked swimmingly in Iraq, now we demand that the Iranian president give up his weapons of mass destruction or face sanction, followed by ... well, you know.

The war is all they are pushing, all they are talking about, war war war all the time, popularity be damned, and new wars are now breaking out, Israel, Lebanon, with Syria and Iran being constantly blamed as supporters of terrorism and Hezbolloh.

Is it all about to happen again, like some sick Greek tragedy?

2. You've nailed it, P-raptor...
Sad but true...I hear the same drumbeats, the same rhetoric, the same old song. Plenty of enablers singing harmony too, while we sane folk look on aghast...again.

3. With any size successful terrorist attack on American soil, it will be
IMPOSSIBLE to stop those addicted to violence from creating more Death and Destruction.

I think the basic fuel for this addiction is Racism.

They ARE limited somewhat by the fact that our Armed Forces are over-extended now, but that won't stop them, because they WANT an opportunity to use Tactical Nuclear Weapons. TNWs will establish us as the single pre-eminent Military force on the face of the Earth again. As long as we don't go after any of the big guys directly, as long as we pursue proxy wars, we will get away with it, and the disapproval of other nations won't matter at all, because we've already lost their respect now anyway.
