Don't flinch in fight against terror, warns White House
By Alec Russell in Washington
(Filed: 15/03/2004)




Washington gave a thinly-veiled warning to Spain and other European countries yesterday that to waver in the fight against global terrorism would lead to catastrophe.

With anxiety growing that Spain's victorious Socialists might deal a wounding blow to America's coalition by withdrawing Spanish troops from Iraq, the White House launched a co-ordinated offensive clearly tailored to pre-empt calls for a new approach to the fight against terrorism.

Hailing the staunch support of Jose Maria Aznar, Spain's prime minister, Colin Powell, the US secretary of state, said he hoped that other leaders would not "shrink from our responsibility, collective
responsibility, to go after terrorists wherever they surface".

1. The BFEE is a terrorist organization, and everyone knows it.
The more Bush and his gang of thugs try to squirm away from 911, the more obvious it becomes that they have something to hide. If they think the other countries will just ignore that fact, than they are bigger fools than I originally thought.

2. We shall stand fast
We will not flinch in the fight against those who would put our country in further danger. One down, two to go.

4. Easy for the NeoCons to talk since they're not the ones being...
...called upon to engage in combat in Iraq.

They don't call them chickenhawks for no good reason, do they?

5. he's trying to convince himself and his weirdo followers... and even the
weakest-minded among them will eventually have to come to grips with this incontrovertable fact:

bush is a mindless goofball, who failed at everything he ever did, especially being president of the greatest country on earth.

not only that, he couldn't even find the right people to keep his head above water. down the drain of history he goes.

6. Telegraph, with Richard Perle on the board
The Telegraph is a Bushco/PNAC mouthpiece.

10. Don't manipulate and lie over the backs of cadavers, say Spaniards
Doing just that is a costly exercise - ask your friend Aznar how costly...
