War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Al-Jazeera broadcast on Thursday an audiotape on which a voice identified as Osama bin Laden declares “Iraq is the perfect base to set up the jihad to liberate Palestine.” The voice calls on “Muslims in neighboring countries” to “do their best in supporting their mujahedeen brothers in Iraq.” “My speech to you is about the…
March 19, 2003: Today five years ago. Better yet is yesterday five years ago. Then there was still a chance, a flicker of a remote possibility something could have stopped the horror from happening; a 24-hour window for a back-to-the future trek to rescue the world from the clutches of crazy people. Alas, however, the day is…
Even in a clenched-teeth lie, Decider George is incapable of talking straight. In a press conference Thursday, amid a gaggle of bullshit about the failing economy, Decider George waded into the current presidential race, offering a back-stabbing, fear-mongering, twisted-history view of Barack Obama’s position during the debate this week of withdrawing US troops from Iraq, but…
The scenario would be hilarious if death wasn’t the outcome. Gen. David Petraeus, Decider George’s head lackey in Iraq, went on NBC Tuesday morning with a tongue-wrapping excuse to continue the horror that’s Iraq. “We think we won’t know that we’ve reached a turning point until we’re six months past it. We have repeatedly said…
Happy Frankenstein Month! We here at Compatible Creatures adore creative ideas, especially those creative ideas engaging our most-disturbing interest as of late: The Catastrophic Legacy of Decider George. One of the most creative ideas to catch our eyes in recent memory was a piece by Los Angeles Times columnist Rosa Brooks, which appeared Thursday under…
Despite the talk about US troops leaving Iraq as soon as the disheveled country can defend itself, the real timeline is blowing in the wind, and it’s a long-range wind. Although Decider George’s so-called “surge” has seen some improvements, Iraq will most likely never be able to stand on it own two feet. The Iraqi…
As we scanned the online news sources this morning there was nothing at all about this in any of the US mainstream or alternate news operations: Hamas has blamed George Bush’s tour of the Middle East for Israel’s latest deadly incursion into the Gaza Strip that has left at least 16 Palestinians dead and at…
“It’s just this war and that lying sonofabitch Johnson. I would never hurt you. You know that.” Jenny’s activist ‘boyfriend’ in Forrest Gump Despite creating a living hell for the Iraqi people, Decider George wants the horror to continue. Despite all the reality staring him in the face, and like a retarded turtle who won’t…
Shame: synonyms — humiliate, ridicule, insult, demean, disrespect, soul-murder; see Bush, George W. Not only do the US peoples have to put up with Decider George’s arrogant incompetence in everything he touches, now they have to bear the shame of the man as he blunders from one spot in the Middle East to another. As…
Hubris is an interesting word. We here at Compatible Creatures have a dour longing for words which look weird and are rarely used in general-public discourse. However, hubris have been used a lot the last five or six years, mainly to describe on the horrifying achievements of Decider George and his bunch. Greek in orgin,…
