George Bush’s Gulf Tears
- Share via
Buckley turns the propaganda machine on full blast and practically canonizes President Bush for supposedly crying when he decided to order the destruction of Iraq.
Let’s set the record straight as to who this man George Bush is and what he has been involved or associated with in the past. Bush is the former head of the CIA, an agency that has conducted literally thousands of covert operations and destabilization campaigns that have led to the deaths of countless millions of people. The CIA has overthrown functional constitutional democracies in Guatemala, Brazil, Guyana, Chile, the Congo, Iran, Panama, Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador and Uruguay.
And now we are supposed to believe that the man who oversaw and supported the wars in Nicaragua and El Salvador as vice president, and now President, and who formerly headed up the CIA, is a man of compassion? Bull.
Bush is a manipulative, Machiavellian monster who toys with countries with utter disregard for the destruction, death and misery he causes the masses of people in those countries.
