NOW THAT IS FUNNY, LOL! CB - great rant by Orianna Fallaci indeed - sound like she's talking about George Bush Jr., see below LOL!

"I find it shameful that many Italians and many Europeans [many British and many East Europeans] have chosen as their standard- bearer the gentleman (or so it is polite to say) Arafat [Bush Jr]. This nonentity [yep, Bushie] who thanks to the money of the Saudi Royal Family [the Bush Family, the Corporate Family] plays the Mussolini ad perpetuum [yes, the Mussolini of the U.S. minority elected, split supreme court conservative inflicted, Florida Fraud Baby] and in his megalomania believes he will pass into History as the George Washington of Palestine. [George Washington of the U.S.A., LOL!] This ungrammatical wretch [LOL!] who when I interviewed him was unable even to put together a complete sentence, [LOL!] to make articulate conversation.[LOL! LOL! LOL! Sounds like Georgie Bush Jr. to a T!!! LOL!] So that to put it all together, write it, publish it, cost me a tremendous effort [Pity GWB's speechwriter, LOL!] and I concluded that compared to him even Ghaddafi sounds like Leonardo da Vinci.[yep, spot on!] This false warrior [LOL!] who always goes around in uniform like Pinochet, never putting on civilian garb, and yet despite this has never participated in a battle.[GWB's Vietnam non-participating battle was spent hiding in the National Guard back home, LOL!] War is something he sends, has always sent, others to do for him. That is, the poor souls who believe in him.[Yep, sounds like Georgies plan for the U.S. cannon fodder to be sent out there] This pompous incompetent who playing the part of Head of State [describes GWB to a T, LOL!!!] caused the failure of the Camp David negotiations, Clinton’s mediation. [U.N. negotiations re: Iraq, I'm sure there are many others that fit, including Kyoto etc.]"

Oh, this is just too rich, LOL! I swear, I started reading the Oriana thing with interest, and there I suddenly saw - she's talking about Georgie Junior, LOL!

OK folks, just some good-natured ribbing, no accusations of anti-bushism, please, LOL!
