Albright The Hypocrit
This is laughable!
The Associated Press – ATLANTA Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said Thursday that through the war in Iraq the United States has lost its moral authority, and it will be up to the next president to restore the “goodness of American power.” “I think that Iraq is going to go down in history as the greatest disaster in American foreign policy,” Albright said, with former President Jimmy Carter at her side in one of a series of “Conversations at the Carter Center.”
First of all … Jimmy Carter has no business criticizing anyone else’s middle east policy. He played a huge role in showing weakness to the enemy, and they grew in strength all these years in part to his inaction. As for Albright … he she believes we’ve lost our “moral authority” and “goodness?” How? In what way? Is it that we are fighting a war at all? No that can’t be. We fought a couple of conflicts under her watch.
Perhaps it’s because innocent Iraqi children are getting hurt in Iraq (by the terrorists). No … that can’t be it. She doesn’t care about innocent Iraqi children. She went on 60 Minutes in 1996, and was asked about the 500,000 innocent Iraqi children that have died as a result of US sanctions on Iraq … here is her response:
Lesley Stahl on U.S. sanctions against Iraq: We have heard that a half million children have died. I mean, that’s more children than died in Hiroshima. And, you know, is the price worth it? Secretary of State Madeleine Albright: I think this is a very hard choice, but the price–we think the price is worth it. –60 Minutes (5/12/96)
Worth it? That doesn’t sound like the US had “moral authority” or “goodness” under her administration either. Perhaps we didn’t lose our “goodness” during this administration.

Not only can she not back up her “goodness” comments with anything substantive, but she was partly responsible for North Korea’s nuclear success.
As for her comment that Iraq will go down in history as the greatest disaster in American foreign policy … I guess we’ll have to see if we end up in a shooting/nuclear war with North Korea won’t we?
If the picture of Rumsfeld shaking hands with Saddam was a smoking gun … what is this? At least Rummy didn’t have drinks with the enemy.

Stumble It!
Madam Albright is a Zionist. That is a fact.
Most of you live in a world where facts seem to be thought of as leporous.
When you meet someone who actually supports what he believes with ‘facts’ – with reality, you immediately cry out.
“Speaking the Truth in times of universal deceit is a revolutionary act.” Orwell
Carry on, you fit right in here at MND where what is really going on is swept away or swept under the carpet.
It’s interesting nobody noticed the gun in the room. CF wants to convince us that the government is wrong. OK, let’s go with that for a second. But then again something like a Grievance Petition ought to be recognized? By whom? Oh yeah — our government that is wrong anyway. That is a nice fantasy.
That logic indeed doesn’t hold water. Not stop it Charles. You are not permitted to disagree. Bush says resistance is futile, and we must comply. It is only when we are bankrupted that we ought to be concerned. So Uncle Bush says keep your pants on until then.
Patriot,
you might have better luck talking to “the hand.”
Chucky’s brain is was fried up long ago with scrambled eggs. His type of logic is “If A=B, and B=C then A=Q. A=C is a Zionist lie.”
You cannot reason with the insane. You have no mutual frame of reference from which to begin the discussion. To him Yoda is real and George Lucas is just a Zionist trying to claim credit for him.
“You are about to enter a dimension, not just of sight and sound but of imagination. You are about to enter…The Twilight Zone.”
Too late Rod, Charles beat you to it.
Casey,
Don’t forget Madame Halfbright’s decision to oppose any intervention in Darfur during the Clinton administration.
I guess that doesn’t qualify under the heading of a foreign policy disaster.
CF:
There can be no factual discussions with someone as far gone as you.
Once again you defend a few criminals (a.k.a. deserters and other cowards) just as you defend terrorists that purposely target civilians every day.
In your deranged view terrorists and cowards are heroes and our fine troops are “evil”.
You’ve got it all figured out don’t you? But if you’ve got it all figured out then why are you such a loser? It must be because of those ALL POWERFUL JEWS!!
Maybe you should talk nicely about the Jews and they will reward you with their omnipotent power.
“You take one case-mind you-and then portray it as the norm.”
I didn’t take one case. I said there were many more and asked “Have you read any statements by the military personnel who have deserted or gone AWOL from Iraq?” “Or Sgt Benderman’s testimony?”
Pause, take a breath and think before you shoot from the hip. Maybe you won’t look so foolish.
Wait till you ‘dumb stupid animals’ [Kissinger] figure out that 9/11 wasn’t done by “19 Arabs with bocutters.”
What a waste to go to Iraq to find nothing and for nothing and get contaminated with depleted uranium and come back with ‘hot semen’ and then not be able to be intimate with your wife or girlfriend because you’re ‘Uranium positive.”
Oops! the Zionist media didn’t tell you about that sh*t? Well, then, it can’t be true.
“And you know this for a fact? Either put up or shut up moron. You take one case-mind you-and then portray it as the norm. Don’t know who this Bendermen character is…”
Yes, I know this for a fact, but you won’t get the Zionist controlled media to report said facts to you – “Military men [Goyim] are “dumb, stupid animals to be used” as pawns for foreign policy.”
Zionist and dual Israel/US citizen Henry Kissinger
- because guys like Kissinger want dumb stupid animals like you to keep fighing their illegal wars. But hey, I’m the moron – so what do I know?
You don’t know Sgt. Benderman? Why not? He told about the illegal activities going on in Iraq and was court martialled for his talking. But hey, you guys there in the States know everything and who is a moron like me to tell you macho armchair warriors anything?
What about the 1000 and more enlisted men who have signed the Address of Grievance Petition and presented it to Congress? Oops! the Zionist controlled media didn’t tell ya about that one either hey? Well, must not have happened then.
Why didn’t I take the BLUE pill?
“Take the red pill my friends,”
Nah, just have another sip of Kool Aid, Charlie.
American troops are killing innocent men women and children. One soldier, just one mind you, was caught and sentenced to 100 years for raping and murdering a young Iraqi woman. There are many many more that are getting away with it.

And you know this for a fact? Either put up or shut up moron. You take one case-mind you-and then portray it as the norm. Don’t know who this Bendermen character is, but during the Vietnam war there were all kinds of communist sympathizers running around this country portraying themselves as “war vets” and claiming American GI’s were committing all kinds of “atrocities” that turned out to be false. People like you make me sick and it’s the reason I got out of the service. Lowlifes like you just ain’t worth fighting for.
“Perhaps it’s because innocent Iraqi children are getting hurt in Iraq (by the terrorists). No … that can’t be it.”
Have you read any statements by the military personnel who have deserted or gone AWOL from Iraq?
Nah, didn’t think so. Or Sgt. Benderman’s testimony? Nah, didn’t think so. That type of news doesn’t get reported here in the US, so it doesn’t really happen. And you would just ignore it anyway because that round peg reality doesn’t fit your square hole thinking.

Take the red pill my friends, in the long run it’s better medicine than ignoring the fact you might have cancer.
