Pat Buchanan Says That Warmongering Consevatives Hijacked the Government!!!

[ozzymandius]

Now don't get me wrong, I am no Pat Buchanan fan. But when the most right-wing mainstream (or semi-mainstream) politician lamblasts that "a conservative clique" has taken over and are leading us into global war, both the right AND the left should pay attention. It's not like Hillary Clinton is saying this. It's Pat Buchanan for christ sake!!!

this is a very interesting article. I will post the first few paragraphs and then a link for anyone who wants to chew on the rest.....

Whose War?

A neoconservative clique seeks to ensnare our country in a series of wars that are not in America?s interest.

by Patrick J. Buchanan


The War Party may have gotten its war. But it has also gotten something it did not bargain for. Its membership lists and associations have been exposed and its motives challenged. In a rare moment in U.S. journalism, Tim Russert put this question directly to Richard Perle: ?Can you assure American viewers ... that we?re in this situation against Saddam Hussein and his removal for American security interests? And what would be the link in terms of Israel??

We charge that a cabal of polemicists and public officials seek to ensnare our country in a series of wars that are not in America?s interests. We charge them with colluding with Israel to ignite those wars and destroy the Oslo Accords. We charge them with deliberately damaging U.S. relations with every state in the Arab world that defies Israel or supports the Palestinian people?s right to a homeland of their own. We charge that they have alienated friends and allies all over the Islamic and Western world through their arrogance, hubris, and bellicosity.

Not in our lifetimes has America been so isolated from old friends. Far worse, President Bush is being lured into a trap baited for him by these neocons that could cost him his office and cause America to forfeit years of peace won for us by the sacrifices of two generations in the Cold War.

Whose War?

[Elephant_Gut]

hmmmm..... well that is quite interesting. There is no doubt that Israel is the co-benefactor or maybe lead benefactor in this war.

let's see:

1.) We Americans get the trillions of dollars of Iraqi oil (and soon Saudi and Iranian oil)


2.) Israel gets to dominate all the arab countries in the region and make them into virtual vassal states, ensuring Israel's absolute security (in theory)


But ya have to hand it to the Israelis. They have as much if not more to gain from this war yet they are going to sit on the sidelines while someone else duz the dirty work for them. Ha! Ha! That's brilliant. Some might start slinging anti-semetic rants at Israel but I think they are genius. No question about it.
