Destroy all other countries: The Bush/Cheney foreign policy carried out to its logical conclusion
Edited on Mon Nov-05-07 07:50 AM by LuckyTheDog
When you think about it, the ultimate expression of Bush foreign policy would be for the U.S. to destroy every other country.

Cheney says we should lash out with military force if there is even a 1% chance that we might be attacked. And Bush says it is too dangerous to wait for solid evidence that a country is a threat before launching a preemptive attack. He says that's the only way to be "safe."

Well, heck, then, why be middling about it? There is at least SOME chance that ANY country might attack the U.S. or support those who could attack us. The world is dangerous, right? We must not shrink from taking "muscular action" whenever we feel threatened, right?

It seems to me that the only way to be "safe," according to the loyal Bushie idea, is to stop screwing around. We should just go ahead and destroy all the other countries.

Anyone who thinks otherwise is on the side of the terrorists and/or is an appeaser.
:crazy:

1. The freakiest thing is- starting WWIII over no WMD- it's sheer madness.

All manufactured. He/they are manufacturing WWIII. How completely inept and absolutely crazy is this?

He/they created the problem.

And, where is our congress? What are they doing? Nothing!

And you here about "legacy" -- how tough he had it will be part of it-- and yet, it's all created, he created how tough it was.

3. Yes, they have
And the thing about it is that, once the other countries have been taken out, the next job would be to get Americans to turn on each other in an even bigger way.

ENEMIES ARE EVERYWHERE! Or, so the fascists would have us believe.

4. Welll...
They're certainly destroying America, no question.

They are the tools of the globalist elite when it comes
to other countries, the purpose of which is to exploit
resources and labor for the profit and power of the
elite.

They have been very successful in this regard, and
it's pure evil.

One little snag might be a separate banking system and
a regional economy independent of the IMF, World Bank,
and USA free trade agreements.

7. Putin has caught on. He said something to that effect
in his last speech. He didn't call out the U.S. by name, but he talked about those who
would like to take over all countries and divide up their resources (I don't remember exactly how he said it).
