The Bush administration has reiterated its offer to grease the palms of reluctant allies. It needs countries to support their plans for worldwide dominion through the ‘war against terror’. Since most people outside of the United States do not support this war the government has been out making the rounds trying to buy support.
The payoffs are termed assistance and aid. I’m glad to see my hard earned money is at work enslaving the world. Bush doing his best Big Brother impression added:
Today he offered only a paragraph of solace to the victims’ families, saying that “each day brings new pain, each day requires new courage,” yet “your grace and strength have been an example to our nation.” Americans, he added, “will not forget the lives that were taken, and the justice their death requires.”
Then he quickly moved on to describe the second phase of the war against terrorism, which he defined as “a sustained campaign to deny sanctuary to terrorists who would threaten our citizens from anywhere in the world.” In Afghanistan, he said, “hundreds of trained killers are now dead” as a battle in the Shah-i- Kot Mountains continues.
(Aren’t American military personnel trained killers too?)
“And we’re winning,” Mr. Bush said. “Yet it will not be the last battle in Afghanistan, and there will be other battles beyond that nation.”
