The princess can't be a king

BULLY BOY PRESS &   CEDRIC'S BIG MIX -- THE KOOL-AID TABLE


YOU KNOW IT'S BAD FOR AMERICA'S FADED PRINCESS WHEN THE PRESS CALLS HIM A KING.  BARRY O'S FACING JUDICIAL REBUKE FOR HIS EFFORT TO BE, IN HIS WORDS, "A STRONG BLACK WOMAN."

SPEAKING TO THESE REPORTERS EARLIER TODAY, THE DAHLI BAMA EXPLAINED, "AMERICA IS JUST NOT READY FOR A STRONG BLACK WOMAN!  THEY COULDN'T HANDLE OMOROSA AND THEY CAN'T HANDLE ME."

WHETHER THAT'S TRUE OR NOT, THE CASE APPEARS TO BE ABOUT THE FORMER SENATOR ATTEMPTING TO LEGISLATE WHICH IS NOT A POWER THE PRESIDENT HAS.

"THEY CAN TWIST IT AROUND ALL THEY LIKE, BOYS, BUT THIS IS JUST ABOUT THEIR REFUSAL TO EMBRACE A STRONG BLACK WOMAN.  HELL, I'M HARRIET TUBMAN, MISS JANE PITTMAN AND CHERYL TIEGS ROLLED INTO ONE!"

INFORMED THAT CHERYL TIEGS IS NOT KNOWN TO BE BLACK, BARRY O RESPONDED, "FINE THEN, CHERYL LADD, OKAY?  WILL THAT WORK FOR YOU?  CHERYL LADD!"

BEFORE THESE REPORTERS COULD INFORM HIM THAT CHERYL LADD WAS ALSO NOT KNOWN TO BE AFRICAN-AMERICAN, BARRY O HAD ALREADY SASHAYED OFF WHILE SINGING "I WILL SURVIVE."

FROM THE TCI WIRE:


For roughly seven weeks, Nouri al-Maliki has assaulted Anbar Province.  The chief thug and prime minister of Iraq has been armed with US weapons which has used on the Iraqi people.  Far from condemning him, the US government has repeatedly congratulated him as he has terrorized the people of Anbar.

National Iraqi News Agency reports:

Fallujah educational Hospital said on Monday 24 Feb. that the number of victims of random shelling on the city of Fallujah was the martyrdom and wounding of / 722 / people since the beginning of military operations. 
 According to Dr. Ahmed Al-Shami head of resident doctors at the hospital in Fallujah told the National Iraqi News Agency / NINA / that the shelling by the army on residential neighborhoods, killed / 106 / persons and wounded / 616 / others, most of them women and children.

They're one of the two hospitals in Falluja that have been repeatedly shelled by Nouri's military in the last weeks (a War Crime -- the other hospital shelled in Falluja is Falluja General Hospital).  They're short on supplies.

They're a hospital serving the Iraqi people and they're short on supplies but Nouri's not shipping in supplies, he's not doing a damn thing.  They're dependent upon the Intenrationl Committee of the Red Cross and Red Crescent.

Nouri's not only terrorizing the people and attacking the hospitals, he's refusing to supply the hospitals.

And the US government backs this despot.  They get in bed with this tyrant.

106 civilians dead, six-hundred-and-sixteen injured.  And the US government doesn't give a damn.

Felicity Arbuthnot, "Iraq Puppet Government Offers Financial Bounty to Extrajudicial Killers" (Global Research).

In a recent article on the website of the publication Foreign Policy, he writes: “Iraq has defeated Al Qaeda before and we have a holistic strategy to defeat Al Qaeda again.” He is surely including in his “holistic strategy” all those across Iraq, not alone in Western Anbar Province, who are demonstrating, rising up and have had heartily enough of his brutal, divisive, sectarian regime.


Military bombing in Falluja today left three civilians injured.  Saturday, NINA reported, "Army forces stationed around Falluja pounded with heavy artillery and tanks" leaving 5 people dead ("including two children") and five more injured.


5 dead from the military shelling Falluja on Saturday.
But that was ignored by western outlets.
Instead, they promoted a ridiculous lie that either demonstrates a lack of character or a greater stupidity than even their strongest critics have ever accused them of.
For example,  WG Dunlop reported that "Iraq announces 72 hour truce in Falluja."  You can also clich here because the story was all over, despite being highly suspect.
Can you do basic math?
I think I can.
72 hours is three days.
The press -- not just AFP -- reported a 72 hour truce.  Saturday, Sunday and Monday would be 72 hours.
Press TV offered video of the false claim.  KUNA put a time on it -- the 72 hours would end at 6:00 am Monday.
For a 72 hour truce to end at 6:00 am Monday (Iraq time), it would have needed to begin Friday morning at six.  Can we all count?
Six a.m. Friday to six a.m. Saturday is 24 hours.  Six a.m. Saturday morning to six a.m. Sunday morning is 24 hours -- our total is now 48.  Sorry to go so slowly but it appears the press can't do basic match so we need to go slow, real slow.  Sunday six a.m. to Monday six a.m. would be 24 more hours.  Add that to our previous 48 -- that's 48 plus 24 -- and you get 72.
AFP and others are either stupid or liars.
On Saturday, five people in Falluja died from the military bombing.  For there to be a 72 hour truce, that attack couldn't have happened.
But they ignored it.
And also pretended that a 72 hour truce could be 24 hours less than 72. 
Along with being unable to count, they're unable to have context or common sense.
Nouri's word is worthless.  His first term as prime minister demonstrated it but it was his second term that really drove it home.
For those with common sense, anyway.  A lot of people don't have common sense, they're more at to 'reason away,' as Aretha Franklin noted in her cover of The Doobie Brothers' "What A Fool Believes" (her cover of the song -- which made it to number 17 on the R&B chart -- first appears on her 1980 album Aretha):
Keeps sending him 
Somewhere back in her long ago
She can still believe there's a place in her life
Hey, someday, someway, she will return
He had a place in her life 
She never made him think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
He's watching her go
Oh, yeah
What a fool believes he sees
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing 
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Nothing at all 
Nothing at all
The press is so adorably as they struggle so desperately to believe in Nouri, hanging on by fingertips.
My fingertips are holding onto 
The cracks in our foundations
And I know that I should let go
But I can't
-- "Foundations," written by Kate Nash, first appears on her Made of Bricks
They should have let go, they wouldn't have looked so foolish trumpeting a truce on only Nouri's word.
Sunday, NINA explained:

5 civilians have been killed and ten others injured on Sunday 23, Feb as a result of the bombing of military forces to Fallujah despite the decision to suspend military operations for three days .
A security source told the reporter of the National Iraqi News Agency / NINA / "The army forces stationed outside the city of Fallujah pounded, with heavy artillery and tanks, Fallujah despite the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces' decision yesterday to stop military operations in Fallujah for / 3 / days ."
He added, "The bombing killed five civilians and wounded / 10 / others , including 3 children ."


Did they note that?

Not AFP.  
Not any western outlet.  They all averted their eyes as though Nouri had walked into the room with his fly open and no one wanted to be the one to tell him to zip up.
NINA reports today:
Army forces are building earthen mounds on all main and branch roads around the city of Fallujah and its villages to prevent the entry of any vehicle or getting out of it.
A security source told the National Iraqi News Agency / NINA / that these measures led to the displacement of hundreds of families from areas near to these mounds as al-Falahat, al- Nasaf and Albu al-Alwan villages.


 Is the US government concerned about that?
