Are you ing joking??? I don't care what way you lean politically, but suggesting that Clinton is even in the same ball-park as the Bush family shows how little you know.
Do your homework on Prescott and George Sr. before opening your mouth. Look into Prescott's involvement with Hitler and the Nazi's... Read up on Goerge's involvement with Iran-Contra... he was the point man for the whole thing. Look into all the the CIA did when George was at the healm. It makes their present day covertness look like childs play.
I personally think Reagan was a good president and did alot of good things to turn the US around. However, his VP was always up to no good. Taking what he learned in the CIA and applying it to the vice-presidency.

I know...but it was my nice way of saying that we should be civil to a TA rather than behave like a wanker.
Cheers :D |

Damn, he is my fav president in my lifetime from what I learn and gathered through the years. Every president has their faults but I dont think it deserves them to go to hell. . . .maybe bush. . . but thats off topic.
We cant forget Pres. RR for contributing to the end of the cold war. That was key. |

Beneath the Surface
From time to time, accounts of how the United States helped Iraq develop those chemical Weapons of Mass Destruction break to the surface. For example, in 1992 the Los Angeles Times published a must-read article by Douglas Frantz and Murray Waas:
In the fall of 1989, at a time when Iraq's invasion of Kuwait was only nine months away and Saddam Hussein was desperate for money to buy arms, President Bush signed a top-secret National Security Decision directive ordering closer ties with Baghdad and opening the way for $1 billion in new aid, according to classified documents and interviews....
Getting new aid from Washington was critical for Iraq in the waning months of 1989 and the early months of 1990 because international bankers had cut off virtually all loans to Baghdad. They were alarmed that it was falling behind in repaying its debts but continuing to pour millions of dollars into arms purchases, even though the Iran-Iraq War had ended in the summer of 1988.
In addition to clearing the way for new financial aid, senior Bush aides as late as the spring of 1990 overrode concern among other government officials and insisted that Hussein continue to be allowed to buy so-called "dual use" technology -- advanced equipment that could be used for both civilian and military purposes. The Iraqis were given continued access to such equipment, despite emerging evidence that they were working on nuclear arms and other weapons of mass destruction. ...
And the pressure in 1989 and 1990 to give Hussein crucial financial assistance and maintain his access to sophisticated U.S. technology were not isolated incidents.
Rather, classified documents obtained by The Times show, they reflected a long-secret pattern of personal efforts by Bush -- both as President and as vice president -- to support and placate the Iraqi dictator. Repeatedly, when serious objections to helping Hussein arose within the government, Bush and aides following his directives intervened to suppress the resistance. [Frantz and Waas, "Bush Secret Effort Helped Iraq Build its War Machine," Los Angeles Times, February 23, 1992]
(...)
The pro-Iraq strategy was embraced by Bush when he became President. His Administration continued to encourage the transfer of U.S.-supplied arms to Iraq from Arab allies, according to interviews and classified documents. [Frantz and Waas, ibid.]
(...)
BNL was involved in $4 billion in unauthorized loans to Iraq, including $900 million guaranteed by an Agriculture Department program pushed by President Bush I.
...this only leaves one thing to conclude: Weapons of Mass Destruction are out there, manufactured by Iraq because the US provided the funding for them!!! (same goes for the training the CIA provided Osama with...)
in my opinion, 'what goes around comes around'. serves them right for being the no-good opportunistic bastards they are! the tables have turned - you shot yourself in the foot, mr president! didn't think those WMD would backfire, did you? |
