George Bush calls for continued support of al-Qaeda
Our King George is not so mad as to come out and directly say so but consider what is already occurring because of his single minded devotion to attacking and then staying in Iraq.
So let's see, he has given us death, destruction,huge debts, severe damage to our military (which he loves so much), great moral and actual support for terrorists while attacking the freedoms that he says Osama wants to destroy. And he wants to stay another two years at least to complete the job. Impeachment would be a blessing for our country.
In one of the most troubling trends, U.S. officials said that Al Qaeda's command base in Pakistan is increasingly being funded by cash coming out of Iraq, where the terrorist network's operatives are raising substantial sums from donations to the anti-American insurgency as well as kidnappings of wealthy Iraqis and other criminal activity.In four short years, Iraq has gone from being a country where there was no Al Qaeda, except in the US protected northern no-fly zone, to being a major cash cow for Osama as well as recruiting poster and training facility for new recruits. And let us not forget that they are also perfecting weapons and tactics for dealing with the US military. I doubt that even a gaggle of Hollywood screenwriters could have developed a better scenario for building and developing Osama's mob than Our Dear Befuddled Leader has done in his GWOT.
The influx of money has bolstered Al Qaeda's leadership ranks at a time when the core command is regrouping and reasserting influence over its far-flung network. The trend also signals a reversal in the traditional flow of Al Qaeda funds, with the network's leadership surviving to a large extent on money coming in from its most profitable franchise, rather than distributing funds from headquarters to distant cells.
Al Qaeda's efforts were aided, intelligence officials said, by Pakistan's withdrawal in September of tens of thousands of troops from the tribal areas along the Afghanistan border where Bin Laden and his top deputy, Ayman Zawahiri, are believed to be hiding.
Little more than a year ago, Al Qaeda's core command was thought to be in a financial crunch. But U.S. officials said cash shipped from Iraq has eased those troubles.
"Iraq is a big moneymaker for them," said a senior U.S. counter-terrorism official.
So let's see, he has given us death, destruction,huge debts, severe damage to our military (which he loves so much), great moral and actual support for terrorists while attacking the freedoms that he says Osama wants to destroy. And he wants to stay another two years at least to complete the job. Impeachment would be a blessing for our country.
