Why the fuck are we in Iraq?

Iraq is like Macbeth: we've killed so many now we may as well kill some more to reach the other side.
Or as it's called: "staying the course"

Tom Titmouse

The four so-called "civilian contractors" torn to pieces by enraged Iraqis - prompting the equally vicious U.S. attack on Fallujah - were apparently "security contractors". In other words: just more fucken mercenaries. Indeed, some serving in that role once worked for the brutal former apartheid government of South Africa, and certain bloodthirsty Latin American dictatorships. Fuck 'em all!

This also is very much to the point:

"When the BBC's reporters covered the atrocities in Madrid last month their horror and outrage were palpable ... I have seen nothing comparable in BBC1 reporting on Falluja. Where is the sense of outrage and horror at the killing of 600 and wounding of 1700 Iraqis, including many women and children, by a high-tech superpower?"

The Bush regime is fanning the flames of terrorism and is making an international pariah of the USA.

Why the fuck are we on this earth at all? Often I wish someone would shoot me. How much do you get as a mercenary? Where does one apply; I want to help spread democracy as well! what the hell is there to do? Besides, all of those cunts kneeling down en masse and bowing is freaky. Rob

AND WHAT IF THEY FART AT THE SAME TIME? SURELY THAT IS THE wmd WE HAVE OFTEN HEARD OF!

"We" are in Iraq to save Sharon's evil ass and crush all hope of a Palestinian state.

"We" are not in Iraq. "We" are sitting on my balcony, cold beer in hand, watching cockatoos glide through the green canopy of gum trees as sunset turns the sky a soothing smokey blue.

So when an we expect another reluctant motley "Coalition of the Willing" to gather for a U.S. attack on say, Iran or Syria?

But hey, why not just drop the fucken charade and just start dumping napalm and mini-nukes on Gaza and the West Bank? I mean, that's what this shit is really all about anyway!

Less like Macbeth and more like Richard the Third!

is that one "My kingdom for a horse"?

You can't "spread democracy" with violence, intidimidation, ignorance and greed as your chief tools. You can, however, spread the current, bastardised, corrupt U.S. version of "democracy".
