  Bush wanted to bomb al-jazeeraok, first I heard of this, I thought it was bullshit. But it's rather widespread news, apparently.
http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&ned=u ... 20-ap.html According to the articles, a memo was leaked that showed Tony Blair talking George W out of bombing Al-Jazeera headquarters in Qatar. 
Qatar = friendly country. Al-Jazeera = journalists. If this is true, I'm a shocked. And wonderful. Like America doesn't have enough of a reputation of being a bunch of psychotic cowboys. _________________ They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. |

Isn't one of the goals of the war on terror to spread democracy and freedom of speach to the middle east? If so mr. Bush seems to make great progress.

Re: Bush wanted to bomb al-jazeera
So you're saying they're not?  I'm shocked! hehe, jk
And yeah, wtf is up with that...that would have been insane, Bush and his think tanks are getting a little too ideological imho...why don't we just bomb hospitals too, so that they wounded can't get up and fight again? Or mosques, to kill all the radicalists hiding in them?
Bush is getting close to one of the worst presidents in American history...still behind Reagan, but hey.  He'll get there some day.
More Bush moronity: http://www.dumpalink.com/media/11325789 ... Is_Blocked the first part is normal, but then watch as he thinks he pwns the journalists by being a dick, then tries to walk off really cool...and gets pwned himself by a closed door. Notice the burst of laughter. _________________ "I find a Burger Tank in this place? I'm-a be a one-man cheeseburger apocalypse." - Coach |

Re: Bush wanted to bomb al-jazeera
I dont know anything about the other presidents, but for some reason, this doesn't sound unreasonable. _________________ "Well a very, very hevate, ah, heavy duh burtation tonight.

Re: Bush wanted to bomb al-jazeera Least Blair has some sort of intelligence. Bush hasn't seemed to realise that HAMs (Hearts and Minds) works a lot better than having fun playing soldiers.

Nixon? Horrible president, but did really well after he stopped being president. Same with Jimmy Carter. I think we'll just have to agree to disagree on Reagan. Some could argue that he helped end the cold war, y'know.
Heh...I heard about the video. Thanks for linking. _________________ They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. |
