"After the Thanksgiving Day Massacre of Shiites by Sunnis," Maureen Dowd says, "President Bush should go on ...Fox News and give an interview headlined: 'If I did it, here's how the civil war in Iraq happened.'"
Funny.
The NYT columnist adds that Bush could describe "a series of naïve, arrogant and self-defeating blunders, including his team's failure to comprehend that in the Arab world, revenge and religious zealotry can be stronger compulsions than democracy and prosperity."
Sigh, she started so well.
"...in the Arab world, revenge and religious zealotry can be stronger compulsions than democracy and prosperity" is pure BS, worthy of the Bushit master himself.
What went wrong in Iraq was the decision to invade and slaughter Iraqis. It had nothing to do with 'Arab revenge and religious zealotry.'
What we did was wrong. What we did was evil. And the corporate media, including Dowd's New York Times, bears a major responsibility for it.
Major corporate media spokesmen should go on Fox 'news' and say, 'If I did it, here's how I encouraged the cowardly attack on a helpless nation that had never done us any harm."
