Strained relations between Maliki and Petraeus.

Strained relations between Maliki and Petraeus.
A key aide to to Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki said that “relations with U.S. commander Gen. David Petraeus are so poor the Iraqi leader may ask Washington to withdraw the well-regarded U.S. military leader from duty here. The Iraqi foreign minister calls the relationship ‘difficult.’”

Maliki can’t be trusted!

Comment by Mr. President — July 27, 2007
And yet another thing we have in common w/ our Iraqi brothers and sisters. We can’t trust our president either.

Then he shall be gone:

I agree.
Petraeus can’t be trusted!
(Mr. P?)
July 27th, 2007 at 10:23 pmI truly wish that Mr. PeePee mouth would just shut up.
July 27th, 2007 at 10:23 pmfrom october 2004:
“MCINTYRE: There’s a big dispute, Paula, about whether the Pentagon is overstating the number of Iraqis that are truly combat ready.
But the general who’s in charge of the training, very respected general, General Petraeus, insists that 100,000 is the right number out of 164,000 in Iraq.”
Petraeus is an administration hack.
July 27th, 2007 at 10:23 pmHmmmm. I suspect Maliki may simply ask all the US troops to withdraw. The UN mandate expires at the end of the year.
July 27th, 2007 at 10:24 pmMaliki is Mucktard al-Sadist’s little b!tch.

But… but… Maliki was the duly elected President, correct? Or did the nascent Iraqi Supreme Court throw the election his way? (Yet ANOTHER thing we have in common!)
I mean, isn’t Maliki proof that AMERICAN democracy is working in Iraq, making all the death and gore worhtwhile? Proves the surge is working?
July 27th, 2007 at 10:29 pmCan’t wait to see how Tony Snow is gonna spin this..
July 27th, 2007 at 10:31 pmImpeach Bush for war crimes against humanity and put him in jail.

It’s a new term on Wall Street. It’s like an IOU. Instead of actually buying the stock you agreed to sell at a certain price, you create a non-existent stock in its place – it’s called a naked short. This is what’s going on in the Hedge Funds.
July 27th, 2007 at 10:44 pmMaliki, be careful, Cheney is only letting you stay in power if you don’t make waves. He may just have to get his shotgun out…….and you know what THAT means!

I really believe at that level, there is no loyalty to any person or country. It is all about money and power.
I just read here that the WH is now making a deal with the Saudis for arms in the price range of $20 BILLION! Someone please explain this to me.. Supposedly we were attacked on 9/11 by 15 Saudis, 1 Egyptian, 1 Lebanese, 2 from union of Arab Emirates, and instead we bombed the sh*t out of Iraq and have spent over half a TRILLION on this war..

Sounds like you’re having synchonicities which is a term coined by C.G. Jung and which is essentially a meaningful coincidence. My belief is that synchonicities are a good thing!

That’s what “The Celestine Prophecy” said. But since I doubt I’ll ever explore my birth drama or anything, I’m going to have to settle for going nuts seeing these things happen. I never read Jung. Does he sound grounded in non-sexually explicit reality? or does he start with the idea that everything is about sex, unless in those rare instances when it’s not.

In the year 2010 would president Kucinich appreciate a commanding general from another country that has massacred our infrastructure, murdered, raped and tortured our citizens and then trying to steal our resources occupying our country?
July 28th, 2007 at 12:52 amThe rats turn on the rats. Looks like Iraq is ready to join the rest of the Middle East now that they have played the White House. Even the Saudi’s are finished with Bush. Let’s see how well the Middle East made out as Bush/Cheney gave them US land and US tax dollars. Big Business made out real good too. Look the voters thought they had a President as Bush used God’s name for the votes. Now we see the Middle East knew Bush was a drunken idiot and Cheney was an evil greedy old man so the Middle East played them for the fools they are. Now Americans will pay the price for letting Bush steal the White House twice. Iran/Syria/Jordan and all the Middle East countries are laughing at how easy it was to use the US. Oh Israel just sets back and using the US for what they can get. At lease China has moved ahead to the number one spot as the US moves down.
July 28th, 2007 at 12:55 amLol Bush loves General Be-Tray-Us, so I guess Dubya will have Maliki overthrown or murdered. Heck he did Tillman, so icing an Iraqi is no big deal to him.
July 28th, 2007 at 12:58 am“Hmmmm. I suspect Maliki may simply ask all the US troops to withdraw. The UN mandate expires at the end of the year.

Bush would never allow that to happen. He will try to overthrow Maliki and if that doesn’t work he will have Maliki assassinated.
July 28th, 2007 at 1:21 amSpy Agency OKs Bloggers as Journalists:
The U.S. government — led by two of its most secretive agencies — is increasingly saying, “Yes, they are.”
Despite the rap that bloggers simply “bloviate” and “don’t try to find things out,” as conservative newspaper columnist Robert Novak once sniffed, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and the National Security Agency (NSA) have altered policies to indicate they’re taking blogs seriously, and a growing number of public offices are actively reaching out to the blogosphere.
The CIA recently updated its policies on Freedom of Information Act requests to allow bloggers to qualify for special treatment once reserved for old-school reporters. And last August, the NSA issued a directive to its employees to report leaks of classified information to the media — “including blogs,” the order said.
Experts say it’s part of a trend. Earlier this year, the criminal trial of former White House aide I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby was the first time a federal court had issued press credentials to bloggers. A rotating pool of five to 10 bloggers sat alongside dozens of traditional media reporters to hear the government try and convict one-time aide to Vice President Dick Cheney on perjury and obstruction of justice charges stemming from the leak of an undercover CIA operative’s identity.

July 28th, 2007 at 1:24 amUSA selling 20 billion dollars of weapons to Saudi’s
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/28/washington/28weapons.html?_r=1&hp&oref=slogin
Never ending wars coming.
July 28th, 2007 at 1:24 am“USA selling 20 billion dollars of weapons to Saudi’s”
Wow, what a sweet deal for the war profiteers. First we give them gobs of our tax dollars to arm our military to destabilize the middle east. Then we give the war profiteers gobs of money to the Saudis to protect themselves from the mess we have caused. And to top it all off we offer Israel $30.4 billion in military aid over the next decade.
Do we profit from this endless war? I think not. The only people who profit from endless war are the war profiteers like Halliburton and Bechtel.
This was all part of Bush’s plan in the first place. Destabilize the Middle East to give his fat cat friends endless profits from wars and to give his fat cat oil friends the oil in the area he has destabilized. If Bush is ever assassinated, it won’t be by someone in our country, it will be by someone from one of the many countries he has put in jeopardy by his warmongering.
July 28th, 2007 at 1:34 amIraq is engaged in a civil war. Maliki represents one side and Petraeus is arming and training the other side. It’s not hard to see why they don’t get along. There is a bit of irony here though. We are arming and training the very Saddamists that we removed from power when we invaded. This also qualifies as a major Oops.
July 28th, 2007 at 1:36 amRemember when Republicans gave Saddam the weapons look what happen. Now India will to the same and so will the Saudis. The Middle East have some smart leaders they knew the US President was and idiot and they used him for all he is worth. They studied Dick Cheney and knew he was greedy and would fall for anything that looked like gold but really was coal. Now the new age begins and the US has to rebuild but future generation will see the weapons Bush gave away will come back to bite the US in the butt. Look for higher taxes as the GOP says it was all Bill Clinton’s fault, Bush had nothing to do with the past 6 1/2 years of crimes and stealing.

Wayne,
I’m certainly not an expert and I’ve only read a small amount of Jung, but my impression is that Jung was light years ahead of Freud. I think I read somewhere that Freud who wrote about sexual repression was also himself sexually repressed and so as a result he had an obsession with sex (kinda like today’s Republicans). Anyway, even though Freud did some important work, I believe he was way off base on a lot of things, whereas I think Jung was much more on the mark.
July 28th, 2007 at 2:28 amWayne,
Oh, and to answer your question, I believe Jung rejected Freud’s assertions that everything was based on sex and so Jung was much more reality-based.
July 28th, 2007 at 2:32 amThanks, willy. That’s the general impression I got from other refences I’ve encountered. Amazing how much trivia you can pick up and retain from the of oddest of places. I’ll have to find the Cliff’s Notes “review” of his work to catch up, or consult my “Incomplete Education” books.

Do you think this means the Iraqis wont be greeting us as liberators? Wolfie said they would do that. Now I’m afraid (four years after the fact) that they might not because Maliki doesn’t like our resident occupier.

Mr. Pee, Jake, whatever your name is this week, I really have to say.. just when I’ve thought I’ve heard the dumbest thing possible, you come along and break a new record.
Is it really you saying this, or someone apeing you? Because you know, Maliki is the leader chosen by the FREE , DEMOCRATIC Iraq system…..
Don’t you like Iraqis having the freedom to choose the leaders they want? You allegedly support a free, democratic Iraq, so why shouldn’t
you support the results of that democracy in action? I mean, if a majority of Iraqis choose to breakaway the southern half and make it a satelite of Iran, don’t you support their right to make this choice?
I take it you don’t like Maliki because you’ve figured out he’s esentially a pawn for the radical shia death squads. Well, this is the freedom you insisted the Iraqis must have, and that americans must die to give them, and now your p1ssed about how they used it.
Typical, hypocritical republican.
July 28th, 2007 at 9:26 amAnd now bush wants to give Billions of $ worth of arms to the Saudis and other “pro-western” gulf states.
Things in Baghdad just got wa-aay hotter.
July 28th, 2007 at 9:45 amMaybe Bush should bring back Perle and Wolfowitz and Bremer, get their advice, then just to the exact opposite of what they say (since EVERYTHING they predicted has been WRONG). Bush assigns clowns like these guys and Rumsfeld to ledership roles in our Gov’t and he wonders why he’s getting his ass kicked in Iraq?
July 28th, 2007 at 10:02 am“Bush gave away will come back to bite the US in the butt. “
It’s already biting us in the but. We train and equip the Iraqi army and then they walk away taking their training and arms to join the insurgents. One has to wonder how many of our brave men and women have been killed by a US made weapon (besides Pat Tillman, of course).
July 28th, 2007 at 10:08 am#64 Bush & the Saudis? Why is that surprising to anyone? Pappy Bush is in bed with them in the Carlyle Group and what about the plane load of Saudis who were flown out immediately following 9/11 when airspace was, ostensibly, closed to ALL air traffic?
Besides, when we were in bed with Saddam, Pappy Bush sold him WMD’s, etc. Why is this surprising? We get to “play god” and decide whom to arm and support and when? After all, that’s every good Bully’s MO. Likewise, we trained our public enemy #1, OBL, when we wanted him to help us drive the Russians out of Afghanistan.
Our allegiance and support is predicated not on anything logical or moral; it’s all a matter of whom we intend to play with in our sandbox and when. Who can wonder why our credibility is around zero these days?
July 28th, 2007 at 10:09 amWhat Bush is doing right now with the Saudis is absolutely no different than what this schizophrenic group of thugs has been doing since the days of #41. Nothing’s changed one iota.
July 28th, 2007 at 10:09 amI can’t wait for the new President to out the members of PNAC and the self-dubbed “architects” of this amoral, highly illegal war based on lies and propaganda. We’ll all get to see who they are: Perle, Kristol, Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld, Cheney, Bush, Rice and others. The american people will see to it that they are all brought to justice.
July 28th, 2007 at 10:11 amThis administration (and Pappy’s) play people for personal and political gain. They set them up and then topple them. I wonder if Abu Gonzo will resign during the recess so Bush can appoint another “recess appointee” to his post? Anyone taking bets yet?

July 28th, 2007 at 10:25 amthe fact that the US is now supplying weapons to some of the same Sunnis that have been blowing up Shiites might be a bit of a problem.
Shiites must realize that the Bush’s are treacherous people. Just like Poppy Bush screwed them in 1991 so is his son doing to them in 2007.

July 28th, 2007 at 10:39 amI wonder if Abu Gonzo will resign during the recess so Bush can appoint another “recess appointee†to his post? Anyone taking bets yet?
I forgot about that trick! This is why Congress must impeach Gonzo immediately. Since the president’s pardon authority does not extend to “cases of impeachment”, it means he not only can’t prevent the trial and subsequent conviction and removal of Gonzo from office, but he can’t use it to protect Gonzo from facing criminal prosecution for lying because it would be a “case of impeachment”, and the constitution says that the removed party “shall be liable” for any crimes. Act fast, before Gonzo resigns, gets pardoned, and stays out of jail (as long as he can keep his mouth shut after that.)
July 28th, 2007 at 11:04 amThat MUST mean that the General is getting ready to “hose down” the PM come September 15th!

That would be a good plan, but if they do that, look for the Bush Admin to re-define “recess” as the next lunch break.

The other thought is that they are destroying documents as fast as the shredders and dick cleaners can move, buying time, then Gonzo suddenly leaves the country for either Paraguay or Dubai, neither of which have extradition to the US. Then we get John Yoo as new AG during the recess.

Comment by Wayne A. Schneider — July 27, 2007 @ 11:09 pm at # 35
The problem with Jung’s theory of synchronicity is determining which coincidences are meaningful. Superstitions, and many religious beliefs are based on coincidences that are not meaningful. Jung was worried that some meaningful serial events were buried by the rule of large numbers used in most research. Most statistical formulas used in research require and least 30 events or an N of 30 to be valid, but the more the better and more events decrease the margin of error. However, Jung wasn’t talking about mere coincidence, but serial events where some phenomena may occur 8 or 10 times in a row, but then be buried in the numbers of hundreds of the same phenomena. Usually that serial occurrence of phenomena wouldn’t be statistically significant.
July 28th, 2007 at 12:09 pmAct fast, before Gonzo resigns, gets pardoned, and stays out of jail (as long as he can keep his mouth shut after that.)
I didn’t even think of that.. That would be terrible.
July 28th, 2007 at 12:13 pmIf Bush were smart, he would nominate US Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald. I am not 100% sure, but I thought he was a VERY smart straight up guy. Who really knows though. It would go a long ways towards giving the DOJ some credibility and regaining the trust of Americans.
Although.. on the other hand.. I am long past wanting Bush to make things right. I want Bush GONE. I want all of his (and Cheney’s and Rove’s) misdeeds exposed and I want them to be made accountable in a VERY big way so this can’t happen again.
Yikes! Now that’s a scary thought. I remember thinking “great, Asscroft is out, who could be worse?â€â€¦..then Gonzo showed up. Before I even had time to seriously consider who could be worse than Gonzo, you’ve answered the question Upside….

And I have not been able to find anything of significance to the coincidences. They’re random, and unrelated to winning the lottery. No useful purpose.
