Comments on: Bolten Says Iraqi Speaker, Who Called U.S. ‘Butchers,’ Appreciates ‘the Sacrifice Americans Have Made’

By: Think Progress » Iraqi Speaker, Defended By White House, Claims America Invaded Iraq ‘With A Pure Zionist Agenda’

[...] Last weekend, the speaker of the Iraqi parliament, Mahmoud al-Mashhadani, described the U.S. occupation of Iraq as “butcher’s work.” Confronted with those remarks on Sunday, White House Chief of Staff Josh Bolten said he had met with al-Mashhadani privately and believes he has an “appreciation for the sacrifice so many Americans have made.” [...]

#17 – Any time the ingrate Mahmoud al-Mashhadani and the rest of the iraqi gov want us to leave they can simply ask. But they dont because they and their fellow countrymen are not man enough to do the job themselves. They would rather let the Americans die doing their dirty work then demagogue the issue.

Did you forget that Iraqi elected officialsi have, in fact, asked Bush for a timetable to withdraw our troops? He (Maliki) did when Bush pulled his “drop in unannounced” photo-op a few weeks ago.

You are also forgetting to remember that the Iraqi people did NOT ask us to enter their country militarily. We invaded them and now we are occupying. Frankly, they shouldn’t HAVE to ask us to leave. Bush himself said a couple years that our Mission was Accomplished, so we have no reason to remain an occupying force.

It is precisely this type of meddling by our government over the years that is the crux of WHY some of the people living there hate our government. It has nothing to do with our “freedom” or our “way of life”. It has to do with our government’s interference in their internal politics and history of toppling democratically elected leaders whom “we” don’t think will serve our interests.

Maybe Bush can get the Israeli Army to handle Iraq for him, too.

#48. Everything you are today you got from heathen/godless societies. Your law, science, architecture, sanitation, philosophy including ethics all come from Greece and Rome – both of which had no idea you would invent your conception of “God” two thousand years later. Oh, and by the way, you got math from the Islamists. If it takes the threat of hell to keep Christians moral then they aren’t worth much, when you are moral and ethical without promises of heaven or threats of hell – that’s a great human being.

I donâ€™t care for you godless atheists either.
Without any concept of divine justice all mankind is left with is dog-eat-dog,and the strong taking the weak ad infinitum.
Mankind is a creature,just like all the beasts of the earth.The moderating force we all have in common is the fear,or love,of God:not the opposite.

#40 – bones,

That is incredibly creepy….ick, ick, ICK!

It wouldn’t be creepy at all if it were simply a collection of photos of different people’s hands, but only one person’s hands? That’s kind of creepy.

And if that one person is not a significant other? Mondo creepy.

And if it’s only GWB’s hands? Ultimate creepazoid, our Mr. Bolten.

Israeli missile strike killed seven members of a Palestinian family picnicking on a Gaza beach, which prompted Hamas to end its 16-month-old informal ceasefire with Israel. Hamas has repeatedly pointed to the Gaza beach incident as one of the central events that prompted its cross-border raid. Hamas also points to the capture of some of its leaders by Israel as the provocation for its raid.

Israel fired 7,000 to 9,000 heavy artillery shells into Gaza, killing and wounding scores of people.

These criminal, TREASONOUS Bushite Zionists (the Bolten twins/Bushiva, L’il Dick and Co.)) and their mass murdering Jewish masters…

…have got balls the size of petrochemical tanks, and brains the size of ant sh*t…

…Bolten (the White(man’s) House Jew) spouted the al Cracker/Zionist propaganda on MTP without batting an eyelash…

…”We’re supporting Israel’s right to defend itself, while not abandoning the Lebanese people”…

…having it both ways…

…creating reality…

…and the reason they’re so successful using these laughable lies and psychological tactics is that the slaves (inbred Bush-worshipping TRAITORS)…

…don’t have the capacity to understand that the so-called “terrorists”…

…even though they bombed the USS Cole, the Khobar Towers, and Marines in Beirut in ‘87…

…STILL did NOTHING to the American people…

…why you ask?

…because the “victims” (military, corporate) were agents of the American corporate criminal culture…

…the soldiers were/are occupying these people’s countries (defiling their holy lands) to protect American (criminal) CORPORATE interests…

…the same corporations that abandoned your dumb al Cracker slave mentality having as*es…

…and who continue to “outsource” your middle class lifestyles…

…but you are too dense to understand such a complicated concept…

#27. From the Stanford Law School Review, interview of “Yosh” (Bush’s nickname for Bolton) …His wall collection of Bush photos, typical throughout the White House complex, is unique. The pictures focus exclusively on Bush’s hands at key moments in his presidency. Not a single photo of Bush’s face can be found. “Josh is extremely eclectic,” explained Card. I’ve got another word for a guy who “exclusively collects photos” of another guys hands. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with it unless you try to look at all the pictures in the darkness of a closet.
