Slagle, Let's continue to see what intelligent observers see as "George Bush, war criminal and mafia gangster". Here's a recent article: context.themoscowtimes.com <SNIP> So let's have no illusions about where we are. Gangsters are in charge, and nothing and no one will be allowed to challenge their dominion. They are waging aggressive war to cement their position and that of their allies: the energy barons, the arms merchants, the construction and services cartels, the investment bankers. These power blocs now command monstrous resources and unfathomable profits; they can buy out, buy off or bury any force that opposes them. Meanwhile, they use the loot of the stolen Republic -- its blood and treasure -- as fuel for their ever-expanding war machine: Bush now has a "secret watch-list" of 25 more countries ripe for military intervention, the Financial Times reported. With more war crimes afoot, last month Bush issued an official "National Defense Strategy" that openly declares "judicial processes" as one of the enemies confronting the United States, actually equating them with terrorism, The Associated Press reported. Law is "a strategy of the weak," says the Bush Doctrine, in a chilling echo of Hitlerian machtpolitik: Might makes right. The judicial process must not be allowed to "constrain or shape" American behavior in any way, the gangsters declared. Think of it: Law is now the enemy. Democracy, as we've seen above, is the enemy. This, the demented code of criminals and tyrants, has become the ruling doctrine of the United States -- replacing the Constitution, replacing the noble struggle for liberty and enlightenment with the howl of the beast, with a freak show of avarice and death. <END SNIP> Cited DoD planning document, The National Defense Strategy: defenselink.mil But wait, there's more! Here's a snippet from a Wall Street Journal article describing the hoped for capabilities as envisioned by the National Defense Strategy: globalresearch.ca One "dream capability" might be an unmanned AC-130 gunship that could circle an area at relatively low altitude until it is needed, then swoop in to lay down a withering line of fire, said a defense official. I defy you to call this the policy of a "Christian gentleman". I am absolutely certain that the victims of such a brassy, aggressive and hostile militarism would declare Mr. Bush to be a "MARAUDING CRUSADER!" and, it should go without say, they would be completely accrurate in that description of a war criminal.
