And then when the Kurds rose up against him in 1992, an uprising alleged to have been encouraged by the CIA, we stood by and watched the Kurds get slaughtered.

We absolutely did. Why did we do this? Because we had made this commitment to the G.D. UN.


So then, O Wise One, why did the CIA encourage the uprising? They couldn't possibly think the Kurds could defeat Saddam on their own.

People talk about Bush 41 having "made a mistake" by not going to Baghdad. WRONG. The mistake was in getting UN approval beforehand. And here we are being screwed by them again.

Let's face facts.......Bush Sr. is a bit of a nincompoop; he can't seem to see the forest for the trees in almost any stituation. And I am afraid the acorn has fallen far from the tree.
