So I heard on the radio news today that its the 3 year anniversary of the war in Iraq. Apparently there is still a need for allied forces to be there to stop terrorists entering and causing another attack. I’m pretty sure that is what George Bush said. But he certainly doesn’t appear to want to let control of Iraq go.
Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t the main culprit for the September 11 attacks Osama Bin Laden and isn’t he in Afganistan somewhere?
I only caught a bit of Farenheit 911 and I must make an effort to see it all but it really made me think. What if it’s true? What is the relationship between the Bin Laden’s and the Bushes?
I was always amazed at how the fight moved from Bin Laden to the need to get Saddam Hussain. Was George Bush Jnr trying to finish what his father started back in the early 1990’s? A lot of other nations got pulled into the Iraq war, Australia included. And what of Bin Laden? Is he really dead or is he still floating around somewhere. Granted Saddam was evil to his people but he certainly didn’t mount a strike as devasting to another nation as September 11 was.
I guess we’ll never find out the truth. I just hope that it all ends soon and I know there will never be world peace but its nice to hope sometimes.
It’s a bit scary that I’m blogging something that borders on serious 😉

Yep Baby Bush Is finishing up for Daddy Bush
Thanks Nicki for stating your opinion.
Though I thought that the dicudrama was about the Bush connections to the Saudi Royal Family and their connections to Bin Ladin … but since I haven't seen the film I should not stick my nose in! LOL

Ugg! Nicki I hate politics! Mainly because I have very strong opinioins and they aren't always the popular ones. I don't mean to imply that I shy away from taking a stand, quite the contrary but I do attempt to talk about other things in an attempt to avoid alienating others.
I've avoided your blog for days for this reason. But your not adding and letting me talk about anything else so… 🙂 You asked for it!!!!
Just kidding – I won't say much. I happen to agree with Jenne. And for the most part am sick and tired of hearing the reporters talking nonstop about how we should have done this or we shouldn't be doing this. Hello!! If we all could have seen into the future 9/11 wouldn't have happened. Hind sight is always *clear*. And I for one believe the individual soldier's reports that the *people* are happy we're there to help them. I also feel that we'd be letting them down if we left now. Nothing like letting the big bad bully back into control. Just like on a school ground(take it back to the basics). The teacher stops the bully and deciplines and then walks away. What happens then? Do you think the *bully* suddenly has a turn of heart? Does he suddenly leave those who do not fight alone? NO. He doesn't. I wish to high heaven he did. But let's face the truth – we all know he's not going to. And that is a truth known the world around. No matter what culture, no matter what religion, no matter what race. If you look at the kids you see these actions echoed before we become adults…and you know what is going to happen.
Now do me a favor, cause I really, really like reading your posts and hearing about your spot in the world – no more POLITICS!!!! 🙂
Of course I'm just one person's opinion on that and maybe others like it. 🙂
Have a great day!
