A CYNICAL VIEW OF BUSH'S IRAN FREE SPEECH THRUST Re: Bush's Support For Reformers Backfires in Iran I have come to the opposite conclusion. The speech worked exactly as the Bush puppetmasters intended it to. To wit: A cynic might view this an an extension of the Bush habit of betrayal which was in great evidence in the days after the end of the Gulf War, when Bush 41 encouraged the Kurds and Shias of Shat al Arab to rise up against Saddam, only to be cruelly betrayed by the Bush team. The speechifying by Dubya could very well have been meant to create exactly the reaction achieved in Tehran, thus aiding and abetting those devious scoundrels among the neo-cons who fervently desire "enemies" in order to justify their flagrant war profiteering. Cf.: truthout.org The Bush team need enemies. The rest of us certainly do not. -Ray
