Has anyone noticed how the issue of Iraq has started to “fade” from the front headlines? Has anyone noticed that the primary issue at hand is the turn-over from U.N. control to U.S. control?
Did anyone read the Newsweek article last week about Kofi Anan? Is the U.N. good for anything anymore? Will other countries up and go to war without consent? We have striven for diplomacy for so long…but, strong-arming seems to be the thrust of what this world is really heading toward.
U.S. interests rule all and those oil fields seem to be the only thing we’ve found of note.
Where ARE those weapons of mass destruction? Those chemicals?
Some of my friends believed that Bush did have concrete evidence he could not share before the war. Maybe there were black ops inside that could not be ratted out and telling the information would leak the whereabouts of those operatives. However, the war is over. Wouldn’t those knowledgeable black ops be safe now? At least some of them? Wouldn’t it now be time to reveal what they knew? Even if it does not reveal current locations of weapons or chemicals; at least we would know we went in for something, that there was evidence prior to the war.
Many who were in support of the war before are now hesitant to back it up. When evidence falls short, supporters fall silent. Now, Bush looks to North Korea to not only cover up the economy’s downward spiral here at home, but to cover up the fact that Iraq is beginning to look like the U.S.’s bid for control in the Middle East oil game. I’m just conjecturing…but, wouldn’t that be a hoot. And, we wonder why the world hates us.
