Other recent leaks have included the contents of classified reports drawn up by CIA analysts before the invasion of Iraq, warning the White House about the dangers of post-war instability. Specifically, the reports said that rogue Ba'athist elements might team up with terrorist groups to wage a guerrilla war. Critics of the White House include officials who have served in previous Republican administrations such as Vince Cannistraro, a former CIA head of counter-terrorism and member of the National Security Council under Ronald Reagan. "These have been an extraordinary four years for the CIA and the political pressure to come up with the right results has been enormous, particularly from Vice-President Cheney. "I'm afraid that the agency is guilty of bending over backwards to please the administration. George Tenet was desperate to give them what they wanted and that was a complete disaster." With the simmering rows breaking out in public, the Wall Street Journal declared in an editorial that the administration was now fighting two insurgencies: one in Iraq and one at the CIA.

Bottomfeeder 244 Posted October 12, 2004 Author Share Posted October 12, 2004 Any notion that Bush is a 'terrorist' is the height of absurdity. 110432[/snapback] You're entitled to your opinion, just I am. IMO, he should be classified as a terrorists, that is, if he truly believes in the policies he endorses. If he, being a puppet, as most americans believe he is, then maybe he should be taken off the terrorism watch list. While our definition of a terrorist uses examples with regard to the United State(no typo) of America, we must look outside of our clouded vision to get the world's definition. Heck, they have been dealing with it much longer than we have. 1. The European legislation in question is a proposal on combating terrorism that the EU Council of Ministers of Justice and Home Affairs is scheduled to discuss later this week. The proposal defines terrorism as, "offenses intentionally committed by an individual or a group against one or more countries, their institutions or people, with the aim of intimidating them and seriously altering or destroying the political, economic, or social structures of a country." UN- The law defines a terrorist act as the use or threat of action to influence a government, or to intimidate or endanger the public, to advance a political, religious or ideological cause. Based on UNSC resolution 1373, it gives the government the power to freeze funds believed to be linked with terrorism and criminalises the act of funding terrorism. Doesn't our own CIA influence our other countries' governmental poilicies? So, if Bush has yet to issue an Executive Order to stop such intimidation or outright COUP D'ETAT in other countries, then make the case that he is no terrorist. Cite all of the threats, we supposedly face, until you are blue in the face, but we are the freaking terrorist. Or, I mean, our government as the fat swine from hell. What we, presently, do abroad is no different than what the Union Army did to the innocent southern civilians during the Civil War. As a matter of fact, it's just an extension of the same policies Lincoln imposed on the Confederate States. Now that the Neocons face extermination, they are pushing certain legislation that should have never seen the light of day. http://www.wired.com/news/politics/0,1283,...n_story_related Bush Submits His Laws for War "Mobilization Against Terrorism Act" (MATA) http://www.wired.com/news/privacy/0,1848,44072,00.html http://www.wired.com/news/politics/0,1283,46852,00.html http://www.fromthewilderness.com/free/ww3/...t_america.shtml Coup d'Etat in America? by Michel Chossudovsky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AURaptor 1,125 Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 You're gorram nuts. Bush is no damn terrorist. Period. If anything, he's the only thing on this planet that gives a damn about killing the terrorist. Well, him and Tony Blair and those who are helping us. But one thing is clear, were it not for Bush, Saddam would still be feeding prisoners into giant chippers, feet first. The 'neocons ' face "extermination"? From who? LOL . Only in your sad, pathetic dream. And why the use of NAZI type language toward those you oppose ? Face it Bottomfeeder, it's all you can do to project your warped view of the world onto others, but that's as far as it'll ever get..in your mind.
