If, as Hillary Clinton suggests, it takes a village to raise a child, then it is equally true that it takes a Bush to destroy that village, and kill that child. And I am not speaking of all those children slaughtered in their beds in Mosul, Fallujah and Baghdad during this President’s murderous invasion and occupation of Iraq.
No, on this occasion I am condemning, in advance, the upcoming invasions of Malaysia, Syria, Yemen, Algeria and Sudan, in addition of course to the first target, Iran, for which extremely detailed plans for strikes and invasion have already been drawn up. The New Yorker article by Seymour Hersh documents in exquisitely painful detail just what the Bush White House has planned as its next steps to extend the American Empire. Anyone who like myself wants to tell the President and his legions, “This far, but no further”, had best write, call, e-mail and visit their representatives in the U.S. House and the Senate and protest strongly against such an obviously criminal and immoral extension of American power.
It takes a nation to stop a Caesar.
