Today on AMERICAblog, Patriot Vicki dissented beautifully about Bush's 9/11/06 speech...
Notice the blatant bigotry in Bush’s speech tonight? He said the war on terror is a clash of civilizations. Another words, he is again blaming the entire Muslim and Arab world for terrorism. That is they are inherently terrorists or their religion or race is. As I’ve said many times before, he is a bigot and his war has no basis except his bigotry. He is condemning the entire Middle East based on his racism and religious hatred of the Muslims. Regardless of his denial, he views all Muslims and Arabs as responsible for 9/11 and all of them as supporting bin Laden. I can’t deny they hate us, but consider how we have repeatedly, abused them, their culture, invaded their lands, stolen their oil, deposed their leaders and governments to replace them with our puppets, indiscriminately murdered and butchered their people. Why shouldn’t they hate us? We never have treated them as equals or as even anything but inferiors to be abused, kicked around, murdered and steal their possessions.
At that, Bush lies about the threat they represent. I doubt they can repeat another terrorist attack of the scale of 9/11. Yes, they are capable of smaller attacks and they probably will happen. However, his rhetoric about fighting them in our streets and that they can destroy us is bullshit, they really aren’t able to mount a serious threat to the security of this nation. The terrorism as seen in Europe is what we have earned and is the reality for the rest of the world, but Bush is such a bigot, that he thinks America is sacred. Not only wrong, if anything, he as done more to discredit America than any enemy could ever dream of, beyond the wildest dreams of bin Laden. That sacred land called America is the one he is working so hard to dismantle, the land of peace freedom and democracy, equality and opportunity for everyone, regardless of race, creed, sexual lifestyle or economic status. He hates America the Free far more than bin Laden, far more than entire Middle East.
Isn’t that world of terrorism what we’ve created and deserve after what we did to them in Iraq and Afghanistan? Moreover, rather than realizing the vile crime of those wars, Bush wants now to do the same or even nuclear carpet bomb, Iran and Syria. Doubt he would stop there. If he could, he’d turn the entire Middle East into a vast radioactive, smoking field of death. After that, what, kill off the continent of Africa, then Asia, then the inferior peoples of Europe. Eventually, the asso ends up killing off those of his clones who aren’t enough like the original, long ago having killed Laura, Jenna, Barbara and the rest of his family.
It’s not that we all aren’t upset when others disagree with us. But mature humans don’t seek to resolve our differences with guns, bombs and nuclear weapons. Rather, despite our differences, we try to honor that everyone is entitled to their own opinions, religion, way of life and to have brown, black or yellow skin. I don’t agree with the musical, South Pacific’s sentiment that you have to be taught to hate. No, rather you have to be taught to accept and live with other people and it is a sign of maturity that we struggle to overcome our base human nature. Bush’s behavior and that of his administration is the behavior of 5 year old children playing in the kindergarten yard, too immature to have yet been taught to accept people different from themselves. But even 5 year olds already accept their parents, and adults. Bush never even got that far ... or he regressed back to the immaturity of a toddler or infant who is only capable of caring about his own selfish wants.
