Sovietization of the US « Thread Started on May 24, 2007, 9:11pm »
I just heard pres. Bush saying: "We are in Iraq on their request".
Did Saddam ask America to invade him? This is exactly the same justification as Soviet Union was giving to the occupation of the Eastern Block countries. They installed their puppet pro-Soviet communistic governments and then these governments were asked Soviets to defend them or liberate them from Nazi occupation.
So, this was done according to the law since the puppet installed by empire was asking for a help to the empire.... I do not think so.
I see more and more analogy between SU and the US - likelimiting the rights of the private citizens, talking about the danger and the enemy - and creating the fear, solving problems through military power rather than dyplomatic power etc etc etc

Interesting thesis Jaga. Some time in the past I heared you making a comparisson between the Communist system in the Peoples republic of your past and certain aspects of the American capitalist system. That was interesting too!

Michael,
Bush junior had easier start since he was born in politically influencial family. Simply, he did not need to do too much....
Besides, different people are on the top: Hitler and Stalin were also on the top as well as Saddam Hussein. Being on the top does not make you better, just more influential

Yes, your information is accurate and currant. Mr. Bush is correct with his information of invitation given by the Iraqi cabinent.
This forwarded to the American President, Mr. Bush for a security partnership. But, this in conjuction of a proposed secuirty package. This will be comensurate with end of mandated multinational forces mission and end of all U.N. ordered restriction to the sovereignty of Iraq. With provision of U.N. mandate to be renewed one finale time with authorization to end in year: 2008.
It has apparantly come to light with Iraq prime Minister-Nouri al-Maliki as representative of the Iraqi goverment. Of the reality of the absence of currant occupational forces, would be not in the best interest of the Iraqi goverment and the people it serves.
For this not of a treaty,but as a new agreement on principal. A proposed formula containing {political/economic/and security} interest.
opinion: the Iraqi goverment has begun to enjoy a tast of the good life. They are holding out on controling interest of oil resorces. The beggers are attempting to dictate to their masters. Let them kiss ass for a while with a better offer.

Charles,
Than you do not have a right to pick on our President, more so, since you do not vote. Otherwise, you act nice also. It is nice that we are free to give our input, but should only do so where we live. And if you work toward correcting any problems.

To all,
I love the U.S.A. and yes it does have fault, but we are working on doing better each day, and it is not easy. If I did not love the U.S.A., I would move, to Poland, my second choice. If I did not have such a large family, as I do, I would move to Poland, anyway. I go to Poland, for a month each year, and this year want to stay longer. It is the second best place to live.

Even without your vote, he did win. Two times. Jr.
Many would tend to disagree with you on that one. (think of Florida) And he did not get there with one of my votes thank God.
I can't think of one great thing or how he even managed to make it as president other than his father's coat tails and even Sr is cringing today of his own son. So what exactly is it that you see that makes him so great.....those beady little lying eyes.

Thank you for your reply and input. It is most appreciated. But, you forget, you are not speaking to a fellow American, I am German, and I do that of what I wish. If perchance, I think and say your president is a goat lover, then I will. But, I do not think or believe so. I actually do admire your president, rather he is wise or he is not wise. At the least, he has balls and will push with all that is within him self to do as his beliefs will carry him.
You see, we Germans even though we do not like what our leadership accomplishes. At least unlike you, we support our leaders and believe in them. For we realize, our leadership are doing what they have to work with, and in leadership, if you are boss, then act and conduct your self as you see fit, for you are boss! But, in acting as such, the weight of a nation lays in balance across your shoulders, so conduct each act accordingly!
You see Michael, I know your profile, for you are a simple man of strong beliefs, you have enjoyed the joys of travel, but do not discuss your adventures. Your weakness is your vanity and self importance. You understand and assimilate information very well, but you disregard that of only what you wish to know.
But Michael, I see much in you. A bit of time, and you will become an asset to the forum.
But Michael, never tell me what I may say or do!
{one reminder: behind each and every computer screen, is a live person. Every each person[and your self] are an important person in them selves, with very important prospect of contribution to add to the wealth of exchange. For we have here, of a small village population, and each and every single person, is very important to the whole}

In my younger days, ahem, I have traveled extensively. And the most important memory I carry is that I would figuratively, upon arrival in the USA, kiss the ground I walk on.
Took my misses with me on one trip. Went to Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong and Kowloon. She found the cultural differences interesting but was really happy to be back in the good ole US of A.

Charles,
I think you know me, but do you? Who am I, and what do I stand for? I don't like outsiders, telling us what to do, to make us better. Look to your own and help them, if they let you. It is easy to find fault, and not try to help, correct things, with actions. I love this, the U.S.A. and would do all to make it better.

Rdywenur,
It looks like you are a crying losser, and could be again, when Clinton does not get in. I just want what is best for all of us. Do you think crazy Gore could do better? Why don't you work for the one you pick, and than you can be a part of it, like I do?
