the "war"

written by Dr. Clyde Wilson
http://www.dixienet.org/dnframeset.html

Was ever so much deadly power at the command of
one so lacking in wisdom and
gravitas?

After briefing by his handlers, the President
shifted from describing the situation as
terrorism to describing it as "war." In law,
international and domestic, "war" has a rather
exact meaning. Constitutionally, that grave
evocation can come only from a declaration
by Congress of the existence of such a state
between the United States and another
state.

But the rhetorical "war" allows a shift from
hunting terrorists to a war against the
institutions and civil population of another
state alleged to have sheltered the terrorists
and one that is surely not on board the "New
World Order" proclaimed by George Senior.

continuation of prev. post;

George Senior had the same disconnect. I recall
his fuming about Panamanian rowdies
harrassing the wife of an American officer.
There was an unacknowledged racist
implication, but the disconnect was that,
thanks to the federal government, such
incidents occur a thousand times a day in the
United States. And Senior was "sickened"
by the video of Los Angeles police officers’
tactics in subduing a muscular felon high on
PCP. At the same time he was authorizing the
"turkey shoot" that murdered thousands
of unresisting non-felonious Iraqui soldiers
(not to mention the civilians).

And then, our born-again leader proclaims
"Operation Infinite Justice." One would think
that a Christian would understand that there
is only one Source of infinite justice. But
America and God are the same thing in minds
like those of our leaders. We had to get
rid of that slogan, not because it offends a
Christian majority but because it offends
Muslim sensibilities.

And while fighting a war against Muslim
terrorists, we must be so obedient to ethnic
sensibilities that airport security must body
search little old ladies whose families have
been in the country since the 1600s – to
avoid "profiling." And how about the disconnect
between fighting Muslim terrorists in the
East while killing Christian men, women, and
children in the Balkans in aid of Muslim
terrorists?
