BULLY BOY PRESS & CEDRIC'S BIG MIX -- THE KOOL AID TABLE
THURSDAY, THE MAYOR OF LOS ANGELES, ERIC GARCETTI, ENDORSED CRANKY CLINTON.
AN HOUR LATER, HE TOOK BACK THE APOLOGY.
REPLIED CRANKY TO THESE REPORTERS, "EVERY MAN BREAKS THEIR PROMISES TO ME -- OR VOW, VOW TO BE FAITHFUL! HA!"
FROM THE TCI WIRE:
Turning to Iraq . . .
The failed Operation Inherent Resolve continues with US President Barack
Obama promising 'liberation' to Iraq via bombs dropped from overhead.
The Defense Dept announced today:

Since August of 2014, these bombings have taken place.
And the Islamic State is still not on the run.
All the money wasted on these bombs and the Islamic State is still not on the run.
All the civilians killed in these bombings and the Islamic State is still not on the run.
All this destruction to Iraq -- yes, bombs dropped from the air landing on Iraq causes destruction -- and the Islamic State is still not on the run.
Operation Inherent Failure is Barack's big solution.

It it any wonder a growing chorus of voices register that they are unimpressed with Barack's plan or 'plan.'
For example, Nicholas Watt (Guardian) reports, "Jeremy Corbyn has suggested Britain should review its involvement in coalition airstrikes against Islamic State
targets in Iraq, as the government confirmed it had no current plans to
seek parliamentary approval to extend the bombing campaign to Syria."
ITV's Chris Ship interviewed Corbyn and they note:
"I'm not sure how successful it [military action in Iraq] has been
because most of the action appears to have moved into Syria so I think
we have to look again at that decision," the Labour leader told Chris Ship.
Mr Corbyn was speaking as Downing Street denied reports that Prime Minister David Cameron has abandoned hope of winning parliamentary approval to extend RAF operations into Syria.

The name changes of the groups fighting in Syria and Iraq should not
fool anyone. In essence they are the same forces; they are “agents of
chaos” being using to create insecurity against U.S. rivals and any
governments or entities that are resisting U.S. edicts. With the erosion
of Al-Qaeda and the fading of Osama bin Laden from the limelight,
Washington created new legends or myths to replace them in the eyes of
the public and the world as a means to sustain its foreign policy. Soon
Jubhat Al-Nusra, ISIL/ISIS, and Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi were all conjured
up and fostered as new bogeymen and monsters to sustain Washington’s
“long war” and to justify the militarism of the United States. These
bogymen also have been used to fan the flames of sedition, drive out
Christians and other minorities, and fuel sectarianism among Muslims
with the objective of dividing the region and pushing Sunni Muslims and
Shiite Muslims to kill one another.
Time to beat a dead corpse, Tuesday brought the joyful news that Ahmed Chalabi had died.
He was a destructive force who did huge damage.
We noted his role in fueling the Iraq War Tuesday. We did not blame him for the Iraq War.
Adam Johnson (FAIR) and a 'writer' at Salon are among a group of xenophobic and, yes, racist whiners.
They're offended that some news outlets are taking so much blame to Chalabi.
They whine that Bully Boy Bush and Dick Cheney are getting off easy.
Bully Boy Bush is a War Criminal and Dick Cheney is so much worse that there's not even a term -- not one we can use in a work safe environment -- that can describe him.
But let's stop being so damn xenophobic.
America is not the great god of the world.
Every thing that happens does not require an American lead or guide.
For Sunnis in Iraq, Chalabi was a bigger obstacle than Bully Boy Bush.
Bully Boy Bush (with aid from Democrats and Republicans in Congress) went to war on Iraq.
Guess what?
The history of Iraq is a history of western countries going to war on it.
Bully Boy Bush is just one in a long parade of ants masking as leaders who tried to destroy Iraq.
He inflicted harm, no question.
But stop pretending that the story begins and ends there.
