(Sounds like something Donald Rumsfeld once said. Boy, that’s one man I didn’t shed any tears over when he died. Crossing my fingers that Dick Cheney is next. If not him, then Paul Wolfowitz or Richard Perle, or Abrams, or Bremer. All scum, as far as I’m concerned. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

Happy birthday, Scott Travis of Judas Priest!
Forgive me if I’m mistaken, but out of the six men you mentioned: Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Perle, Abrams, Bremer and Cheney, five of the six are Jewish. I hope this isn’t an antisemitic thing.

C’mon, Rose! If you’re a regular reader, you should know me better by now. If you Google them, you will see that they are ALL prominent NeoCons, and part of the Project for the New American Century (PNAC) “think” tank. Do some research on PNAC and tell me if you think these are good men.

One can’t be anti-Semitic if you’re opposed to six corrupt, self-serving public officials ! 😦
My sincere apologies.

No offense taken, Rose. In this day and age, I realize that just about everybody feels the need to make assumptions, and take offense/express some kind of *outrage*. It is just where the world is today, unfortunately. I’m just glad that you didn’t fly off the handle, as so many are wont to do. — YUR

The six before-mentioned men are just part of the self-appointed Neo-cons who conned George Bush, The Younger, into taking our eye away from the unfinished mess in Afghanistan in order to create another unfinished mess in Iraq.
He was determined to lynch Sadam Hussein for personal reasons regarding his father, George, The Elder.
So, we didn’t leave behind one unfinished mess twenty years later; we left three: Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria, and maybe more coming.
Attaboy, lwc! But it’s even worse than that. This article is nearly ten years old, but I think it’s still valid:
