Thrasyboulos commented on the blog post Genocidal Harridan Starting To Warm Up To Muslim Mudpeople
The more Israel cultists Abrams and Rubin froth, the more obvious it becomes that they and their like mean to push US foreign policy into two more wars. Never mind the economy, never mind the trillions wasted, never mind the dead, never mind the hatred directed at America. We can afford all that, right?
As if PNAC, the OSP, Judith Miller, Wolfowitz, Perle, Kristol, Feith, et al were not enough. On to Syria and Iran.
Lest we forget, it’s all about oil™.

Must be those famous US/UN unprincipled principles at work.
OK, let’s stop this. I’ll give you my view, which to me fits the facts.
The US, Britain, and now France under the penguin, will militate, always, against secular, nationalist, Arab states.
They will mollycoddle the degenerates in the Gulf, cause the degenerates in the Gulf will not move a finger to harm either oil or Israel. In fact, the three would bend over backward to protect the Gulf degenerate torturers.
The three will also do their utmost to keep their client armies intact, see Egypt. The last thing they want to see is the degradation of the client armies like in Turkey.
Even if they could, on principle (here’s that word again) they will never move against these clients.
The Israelis and their supporters freaked out over Mubarak, and they cheered the imminent destruction of Ghadafi.
And it’s not because of principles like democracy and like balderdash.
You will see this scenario in Syria, in South Lebanon, and probably Iran.

The US in fact has kept Gaddafi in power for decades.
Is this why they bombed his tent and killed his daughter?

I never claimed the US is principled!
So, the US is unprincipled, but it’s acting on principle now because the UN told it to IN THIS CASE?
Is that what you’re saying?
Also, lets abandon “the UN”. The “UN” in this case is five countries, and two abstained. The general assembly, of course, would more logically be called “the UN”, but the three warmongering entities wouldn’t dare take it there. So let’s not bullshit ourselves about “the UN” and its “principles.”
Anyway, I’m long past my nap time. Have fun counting the angels on the head of the pin.

Well, the UN has the opportunity to do good for the Gaza Palestinians (love that US veto…so principled), the shiites in Bahrein, the Haitians, the Yemenis, on and on.
Oh?

Anyway, nice meeting you all.
Next stop, Syria and Iran, with a sidetrip to southern Lebanon.
See you there.

Pick and choose, that’s the ticket.
Principles must be obeyed, after all. Oil, for example, and the destruction of Arab secular nationalists, and those which threaten Israel, now and in the future.
Those we can choose to bomb. The others, of course, receive mild tongue lashings.

Well, the US is doing all it can, short of military intervention so as not to provoke the mighty Saudis into retaliation., to move Bahrain to majority rule, that is, democracy, human rights, and the age of twitter.
Oh? Hillary gave a speech somewhere? Well, that’s all right then.

Hopey did Rumsfeld one better.
“The president had a caveat, though. The American involvement in military action in Libya should be limited — no ground troops — and finite. ‘Days, not weeks,’ a senior White House official recalled him saying.”

Lol! Way to thread the needle.
Congratulations.

The US deposed the democratically elected President of Haiti via an invasion, or doesn’t your memory go that far back.

The message has been refined and given a patina of humanitarian concern. What’s new!
It’s an old game, and cretinous liberals who couldn’t tell you where Libya is located on a map two weeks ago, are now following like mesmerized zombies what the western media dishes out, as if this hasn’t happened before.
Enjoy Iraq, Afghanistan, and now Libya. You’re in the poorhouse, with the Chinese looking in.

As usual, mostly willing media victims are the last to catch on.
Some never do, of course, since what we’re dealing with are happy consumers. And now we have the authority of Twitter, where history and memory go back, oh, ten, twenty minutes, tops.
The role of the media in western societies is to make people stupid and ignorant, and reduce memory to the size of a gnat’s.
Enjoy the bombing.

The plan of the United States (and Israel) is to destroy Arab secular/nationalist regimes.
They’ll accept window dressed events (Egypt) but they’ll retain the essential elements of repression (army, tame clerics) so as not to scare the zionist horses. Tame(d) islamic parties (MB) will be allowed to participate (by far the best option).
Syria’s turn will come, and then Iran’s.
Hopey/Clinton can window dress all they want, but only naive media victims will consume the bullshit about democracy in the ME.

Hopey is good at this handwringing Hamlet act.
Plays well with the innocent media victims back home.

Hopey is going out of his way to show he’s Lieberman’s bitch.
A hypocritical gasbag lighter than air.
Being Wall Street’s lapdog is not enough, it seems.
He’ll be tradee in, no question. They’ll want a real butler this time.
