Bush's Big Surge
So yesterday we read the daily carnage - Saturday: 76 Iraqis, 4 GIs Killed; 8 Iraqis Wounded. Every day it's like that now. You've got to wonder what's in store with Iraq, what the warmongers have planned for the near future. There's no harm in conjecture.
When Cheney was summoned to Riyadh three weeks ago it was to tell the US government in no uncertain terms that the Saudis are pissed. They don't like how the americans are being pressured to engage the Iranians and especially are enraged that Shiias are calling the shots in Bush's Iraqi satrapy. The Saudis are flexing their muscles and probably are calling the shots far more than we're told. They told the dark one they will support their brothers if the americans won't. Since Cheney got back things are going in a new direction. Worse.
Iraqi prime minister Maliki was told to hold a let's be friends reconciliation meeting yesterday and nobody showed up. I believe it was all for show anway and everybody knew it.
Codpiece wants to send more troops, estimates range from 20,000 to 70,000, into the bloody meatgrinder. Some reports claim it's to put down the Sunni insurgency. But if you consider the Saudi connection it's probably to instigate a war on Al-Sadr's Shiia Mahdi Army.
This would be bad news. It would also be bad news if new offences were undertaken against Saudis allies, but Bush wants to send the new forces anyway. There's a very real possibility of Iranian backed Shiias going into all out war with Saudi backed Sunnis with an increasingly vulnerable american army caught in the middle. There are no good choices for the american military in Iraq but Sockpuppet will make them anyway, doubling down on a busted flush.
After all, what does he and his cabal care? As Chris Floyd puts it:
" Meanwhile, the makers of the true atrocity, the great atrocity - the unprovoked, unsanctioned, unnecessary act of aggression responsible for all the mass Iraqi deaths in Ishaqi and across the land, all the dead and maimed Americans, all the ruin, all the senseless pain and suffering - will be making the rounds of sumptuous Christmas parties in the coming days. They'll be feasting and toasting, dancing and laughing, swathed in the pomps of wealth and power, forever secure against the consequences of the evil they have done."
