Irregular Times Diaries: Unfit Discussion

Catch a load of this one: George W. Bush went further out into fantasyland yesterday, when he suggested that the killing of civilians by Israel in Qana over the weekend was “part of a larger struggle between the forces of freedom and the forces of terror”.

Please, will someone explain this to me? Will someone explain to me why the “forces of freedom” took part in the killing something like 30 children, and adult civilians as well?

Were those children part of the forces of terror? Is that it? What, were they terrorizing neighborhood cats or something? Does Bush think that Muslims shouldn’t be allowed to breed, and those children were the next generation’s terrorists? Better to nip it in the bud, Mr. Bush? Is that it?

What fucking twisted kind of freedom is it that the people of Lebanon are getting? Is it the kind of freedom you get only after you’re blown to bits first? What do they call that? The freedom to have your vital fluids soak into the ground to fertilize the soils of future generations?

Blood! Bloody! Bloody doublespeak!
