What do Bush, Cheney, Rice, Rumsfeld and Powell have in common. May 12, 2016 12:29 pm bowser

They are war criminals who are living free, comfortable lives protected by the US government.   Saddam’s regime looks peaceful compared to what they have done to Iraq.

Remember how freedom, peace and democracy was going to spring up all over the Middle East?  The war would pay for itself after a $20 billion investment?  No one would die?  How American troops rushed to save the oil fields and let the infrastructure be destroyed?

Sometimes I wonder how we Americans can live with ourselves.  (I know, I know, that’s life, or death, happens all the time, has gone on forever, just tough on the folks over there, they should move if they don’t like it.  Hang former SS guards, and protect current US politicians.)

Strong words, I know, and if you choose to defend those actions and the corruption which has gone with it you have opted out of the human race.)
