Bush’s bloody legacy — exposing Bush the liar, the mass murderer, the war criminal

MSNBC’s Olbermann BLASTS Bush on Iraq

The Crude and Cruel Truth About Iraq.

George W. Bush is a war criminal, a mass murderer and a barefaced liar. Someone with courage should take this man and his evil clique of cronies, who hijacked their country, democracy and the world, on a murderous ecstasy of assassination and destruction, just because of corporate greed, to the dock in a court of law, where they belong. — Pravda

Facts: THIS PRESENTATION OF BUSH’S LIES AND THE TRUTH, IS BASED ON MEDIA REPORTS AND EYE WITNESS ACCOUNTS.

1. The attack against Iraq was planned long before 9/11 - the Bush family had some unfinished business with Saddam Hussein.Daddys Little War Criminal

2. Colin Powell then lied through his teeth at the UN building in New York, presenting what he claimed as magnificent intelligence work, complete with reports, satellite photographs and mock-ups with arrows and labels, such as “mobile laboratory“, which he later claimed were being “driven around the desert in vehicles“. Later they claimed that the intelligence was faulty. They have never admitted these lies, for fear of prosecution.

4. There are not, and never were, Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq.

5. The heroic liberators of Iraq were supposed to be welcomed by a grateful population. Great care was taken to photograph what were supposed to be cheering throngs. What we saw were a few dozen bemused and shocked citizens watching on as US troops committed acts of vandalism and wanton destruction, to add to the purposeful targeting of civilian infrastructures which have not recovered today.

6. Bush decided to utterly and totally destroy Iraq to pave the way for reconstruction contracts to be doled out to the clique of the corporate elite which dictate the White House’s policy (not the voters), some of these without tender. Paul Bremer SOLD Iraq and its people to foreign institutions controlled by Bush and his cronies.

7. Long after the US troops pull out (or retreat), the Project Management Office and the US Embassy in Baghdad will continue to control the reconstruction process and funding. Neither will all the troops leave, since there are plans to station over 100, 000 in the country for several years at the 14 permanent military bases being set up around the country, advance bases for strikes against other countries as Washington goes for the throat of the world’s richest region in mineral resources.The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder

8. George Bush’s freedom and democracy is translated into horrific statistics about human casualties, the people he said God had told him to save. The “great care” taken by Washington to reduce civilian casualties included the dropping of brightly-colored, shiny cluster bombs into civilian areas for children to mistake as sweets, only for the explosive fragments to blow up, blowing away their faces, their hands, their legs, their eyes or even their lives. UNICEF estimates that at least 1 million children were mutilated for life in this way.

9. Independent estimates point towards a civilian death rate of between 135,000 and 1,000,000 and a further hundreds of thousands wounded, including women and children, the elderly and babies, blasted through their roofs by George Bush’s freedom and democracy and by the great care of his murderous forces. As for Iraqi soldiers, the estimates are even much higher, for the wounded and dead. Allied casualties are impossible to estimate because of Washington’s lies.

10. Between one and two thousand tonnes of depleted uranium was deployed by the invading forces, polluting the atmosphere and water supply for years to come. The country is strewn with unexploded cluster bombs, mines, grenades, 40% of the water supply was destroyed, sewage treatment plants devastated, spreading disease among a population purposefully weakened by a decade of cruel sanctions, while Iraq was disarming.

11. Electricity supply systems were targeted with such savagery that experts estimate it will take three years to rebuild (a juicy ten billion dollar contract). 7% of the hospitals were hit in military strikes, the country’s vaccine supplies were hit, placing 210, 000+ newborn babies at risk of dying.

An Al Qaeda tape has surfaced on militant Islamic web sites, containing a statement made by al Qaeda’s No. 2 on Wednesday.

In the tape, Ayman al-Zawahiri of Al Qaeda has this message for President-Elect Barack Obama: “A ‘legacy of crimes‘ await you. “A heavy legacy of failure and crimes awaits you,” al-Zawahiri allegedly threatens.

Ayman al-Zawahiri, castigated Obama, saying “in you and in Colin Powell, (Condoleezza) Rice and your likes, the words of Malcolm X (may Allah have mercy on him) concerning ‘House Negroes‘ are confirmed.” — [ READ MORE ]

‘Reverend Pork Chop’ Jesse Lee Peterson: ‘Most black people today are racist’

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,


On his radio show, Bill Cunningham asked Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, “If Obama was white as chalk, do you think that [Colin] Powell would be endorsing the Democrat? He didn’t endorse Gore, he didn’t endorse Kerry. I think color trumps everything in his mind.” Peterson responded: “That’s right, because if it was about what Barack Obama stood for, then he would have endorsed Gore and all those guys, but he did not. You know, it’s so sad, my friend, that most black people today are racist. Not all, not all — but most of them are racist.”

Jesse Lee Peterson is a prime example of “Black Poodles” running around the United States, from racist talk-show host to another, disparaging other people of color.

Fox News Channel, the “snake-pit” of American TV Racism, loves people like Jesse Lee Peterson, ever eager to slander non-whites, especially Blacks, as threats to Euro-American white ‘civilization.

The Fox News Audience | McCain & Palin Stroking Hate

And, they (Fox), the official mouthpiece of John “Kill Obama” McCain don’t even bother to veil their bigotry. If it’s not casting the Obamas as ‘un-American,‘ it’s calling them terrorists, or questioning their ties to “Extremist Friends,” or insinuating that Michelle Obama is a “Whore.

One of most vile of these troglodyte “Anchor Men,” Mr. Sean Hannity, a goon who suffers from Tertiary Syphilis, ignored Barack Obama’s written disavowals of a Mr. Frank Marshall Davis (see video below) and used one biased guest, author of an anti-Obama book, to stoke racial fears about Obama. (Ref: Hannity’s America, 10/19/08.)

Peterson & Co Being Used To Disparage Blacks & Obama

Reverend Pork Chop,” Jesse Lee Peterson and Michael Steele, the chairman of GOPAC and a former Lieutenant Governor of Maryland, are “5 Star” Uncle Toms at Fox news, and if they are not, should be listed in the American Directory of Certified Uncle Toms — and charged with undermining black freedom struggles by ingratiating themselves with white racist overseers like Sean Hannity, Bill O’Reilly and co.

Media Matters Reports:

On the October 20 edition of Clear Channel’s The Big Show with Bill Cunningham, guest Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson said of former Secretary of State Colin Powell’s endorsement of Sen. Barack Obama: “He’s clearly for the color of the man and not the character.” Cunningham replied, “Great comments, and if Obama was white as chalk, do you think that Powell would be endorsing the Democrat? He didn’t endorse Al Gore, he didn’t endorse Sen. John Kerry. I think color trumps everything in his mind.” Peterson responded: “That’s right, because if it was about what Barack Obama stood for, then he would have endorsed Gore and all those guys, but he did not. You know, it’s so sad, my friend, that most black people today are racist. Not all, not all — but most of them are racist.

Rev. Jesse Lee PetersonLater in the discussion, Peterson said: “Most black people are — have a socialist mentality. They depend on the government, they don’t get married, most of them don’t work hard, they look to the government to take care of them, and if we allow the socialist Barack Obama to get in, our country would become that way, and we will be in real trouble.”

In previous media appearances, Peterson has called the NAACP “a hate group,” claimed the organization is “a tool of the liberal elite socialist wing of the Democratic Party,” and stated that “crime and out-of-wedlock birth, black folks having babies without being married, and stuff like that is out of control.” According to Peterson, “Not all … but most of them lack moral character. Look what they did to the Louisiana Superdome. In three days, they turned the Dome into a ghetto.

Additionally, Cunningham said to Peterson: “Another sad thing about this whole thing is that Planned Parenthood has thrown all of its resources behind Obama.” Cunningham went on to assert: “And there has been no institution in America that’s killed more black babies than Planned Parenthood. And Planned Parenthood endorses Obama, who, of course, claims to be black, although his mother’s white. And you have the circumstance where Planned Parenthood is in the business of killing black babies in the black community, and so many African-Americans can’t figure it out.”

Peterson: Plant Parenthood is RacistPeterson said of abortion: “It’s a — it’s a genocide upon the black community, and yet you have Barack Obama and Colin Powell who support abortion.” He added: “As a matter of fact, Barack Obama supports abortion at any point — whether it’s partial-birth abortion or if a baby should come out alive after the woman has a botched abortion — Barack Obama wants the baby to die on the table, do not give the baby medical care, but let it die.”

Peterson’s claim was based on Obama’s opposition to a bill amending the Illinois Abortion Law of 1975, which, as Media Matters for America has repeatedly noted, Obama and other opponents said posed a threat to abortion rights and was, they said, unnecessary because Illinois law already prohibited the conduct being addressed by the bill. Indeed, as Media Matters noted, when tasked by the Illinois attorney general’s office with investigating allegations that fetuses born alive at an Illinois hospital were abandoned without treatment, the Illinois Department of Public Health reportedly said it was unable to substantiate the allegations but said that if the allegations had proved true, the conduct alleged would have been a violation of existing Illinois law.

Barack Obama Shouldn’t Accept Colin Powell’s Endorsement

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,


“(AHN) - Former Secretary of State Colin Powell said on Wednesday that he will not attend the Democratic National Convention as claimed by Bill Kristol, Weekly Standard editor.

‘I do not have time to waste on Bill Kristol’s musings,’ Powell told ABC. ‘I am not going to the convention. I have made this clear.’

Kristol said in a Fox report earlier in the day that Powell was planning to endorse Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) on the third night of the convention, the day Democrats speak about the theme “Securing America’s Future.” He added that Powell is scheduled to give a speech explaining his support for Obama.” — Kris Alingod/AHN News Writer

Colin Powell was a voice of moderation and reason in the Bush Administration. He was frequently at odds with Dick Cheney and the rest of the neocons, who had an ill-fated pipe dream of invading Iraq and turning the Muslim country into a bastion of democracy.

“In July 2007 Powell revealed that he spent two and a half hours trying to persuade George W. Bush not to invade Iraq but that he did not prevail.” — Quotation from Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colin_Powell)

Powell was deeply opposed to the invasion and occupation of Iraq, but instead of doing the honorable thing and resigning he went before the United Nations to present his “dog and pony” show in favor of attacking Iraq.

Colin Powell: The Speech that led to WAR (1/8)

Powell’s speech before the UN was such an egregious betrayal of everything that he stood for, that it forever mars an otherwise sterling political and military career.

Sen. Barack Obama’s early claim to fame was that he was against the Iraq war from the start. His vehement opposition to the Iraq war is the main reason why he is the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee.

Under no circumstances should Obama accept Powell’s endorsement, it would be a betrayal of everything he stands for.

Powell’s timidity and cowardice at a critical juncture in history has forever stained his legacy, and if Obama accepts his endorsement it will compromise his moral legitimacy.

Singer Harry Belafonte Slams Colin Powell — Calls Him A “Sellout”
TUES OCT 17, 2002 15:30:38 ET

Singer Harry Belafonte took to the AM radiowaves on Tuesday morning to slam Secretary of State Colin Powell as a sellout to the black race!

Belafonte, appearing on San Diego’s 760 KFMB, told host Ted Leitner that Powell was like a plantation slave who moves into the slave owner’s house and only says what his master wants him to say.

“There’s an old saying,” Belafonte began. “In the days of slavery, there were those slaves who lived on the plantation and were those slaves that lived in the house. You got the privilege of living in the house if you served the master… exactly the way the master intended to have you serve him.

“Colin Powell’s committed to come into the house of the master. When Colin Powell dares to suggest something other than what the master wants to hear, he will be turned back out to pasture.”

For close to twenty minutes, Belafonte ripped the entire Bush administration, including an attack on Attorney General John Ashcroft.

“There’s something wrong with men who think the way Ashcroft does and who manipulate the justice system the way he does.”

Belafonte likened Ashcroft’s tactics to the McCarthy era:

“Families were destroyed, neighbors spied on neighbors. Now we find Ashcroft cutting in under the guise of catching terrorists, suspending liberties and rights. To deny those rights, to any citizen, to any people, is to cast a great shame on us and lead us back to another dark period.”

Belafonte also sang the praises of the United Nations as a pillar of global democracy, and decried President Bush for failing to attend the UN World Conference Against Racism in Durban, South Africa earlier this year.

“There were tens of thousands of peoples and leaders from all over the world gathered to discuss the issue of race. It was an honorable arena… But by not showing up, by sticking it to the government of Nelson Mandela… It was a dark page on our foreign policy.”

Belafonte is best known for the international hit “Day-O (The Banana Boat Song)”.
