Ranting and Venting

You'll see links to news articles, snippets from interviews and other web paraphenalia. This will also be a dumping ground for various stuff that I might need to get off my chest. Hence the Ranting and Venting title.

Bush said a lot of things before Iraq war

Bush said a lot of things before Iraq war

This Opinion Piece is a good listing of the promises and the reasons to invade Iraq. All of them were outright lies or blatant stupidity.

We're stuck in Iraq now because of this. Bush is right about one thing. We can't pull out early. It would destabilize the entire region, and turn Iraq into a worse Dictatorship then what they were faced with.

He is going about things in a wrong way though. Terrorists and militants flood across the unprotected borders while troops protected a tiny little piece of Baghdad called the Green Zone. That almost failed a few weeks back when a Cement Truck full of explosives almost made it through a hole in the wall made by a previous bomb. Fortunately, he got stuck on debris and didn't make it to the hotels. The explosion seemed big enough to level an entire building. I would hate to see what would have happened if it made it through.

I think the video of the explosion made it to the internet. I'll try to find it for you.


Update: I found an article with a link to the video. It's small but most of the other sites have deleted it already. That's the ADHD nature of the Internet unfortunately.
