Bush Setting Up Next Terror Speech

[Robbien]

(AP) The White House is bringing representatives from countries that have suffered terrorist attacks to populate the audience at President Bush's next war-on-terror speech, to emphasize the global nature of the enemy.

. . .

In a speech Thursday that launched a new offensive to build support for the Iraq war and for Republicans in the fall elections, Bush said various factions of terrorists belong under the same umbrella, even though many terrorism experts do not agree.

. . .

On Tuesday, the president plans to expand on this description of the enemy, said White House spokeswoman Dana Perino. The speech is being delivered to the Military Officers Association of America. Members of the diplomatic corps, all representatives of countries that have been attacked, will also be there, she said. Bush will describe how Islamic militants think, what they have said about their aims and why the world should take them seriously, Perino said.

The speech is to be the second in Bush's latest round of addresses on Iraq and the war on terror. This round is to culminate in remarks on Sept. 19 before the U.N. General Assembly in New York.

Other speeches are expected to focus on successes and setbacks in the war on terror and on the Bush administration's strategy to win.

2. They might be making a new Osama video too

I am sorry I don't have a link but I read an article on here that said something about they were thinking about doing a new one. There has not been one of him in a long time, so if they have to use the fat one again it will have more credibility.

8. Wonderful...he's going to teach us how the terrorists think - like he'd

have an f'ing clue.

So he's moved from "they hate us for our freedoms" to "they share the rigid conviction that free societies are a threat to their twisted view of Islam". Let's not forget his "so-called 'homegrown' terrorists with more local grievances." And he's going to expand on this description of terrorists in the next "terror speech"? How lovely. :eyes:

[Robbien]

9. So you saw that too. Bushie is all about the teaching.

Teach us all about it Bushie. Teach us all about those brown skinned non-christan people whom the US administration has not been in direct contact for your whole term in the WH.

14. You know what? Bush doesn't believe a word he says...

...he is the ultimate whore, this "watch my swing" pResident. He lives in an amoral dimension of which 99.0% of us can never fathom. It's the oligarchy that put him there that we should really be frightened of, they don't go away in 2008.
