Everyone, Less We All Forget, We Must Remember:

The....Bush Sr. War......the 1st Gulf War......

Deliberately............... "Let to Happen".........

How you say?...when the Bush Administration's Iraq Ambassador was ask why she did not get it straight with the Iraqi Leader that he was going into a War with Kuwait that the USA would counter! .....she told the US News Media ( it is on Tape) she said....and I quote her "I guess I didn't make it clear enough" and smiled.................

1 what it "That War the 1st Gulf War" did do was increase Oil Prices 400%

2 profited Bush supporters, they got billions of dollars

3 profited the Saudi Royal Family, they got 100's billion dollars

( news of the present just a small side note here "they, the Saudis want to kill the development of Electric Cars, their Oil Minister told 60 mins which aired just last weekend )

4 but in reality over a period of 50 yrs these Needless Bush Wars destroy Global Values in infrastructure, kill needlessly millions of people those that are heads of households: soldiers with families in the USA, Fathers of Iraqi families and now Afghan families, destroy their homes and businesses. Bush Jr's Iraq War was an International Illegal War!

No matter what Congress stated it is and was an Illegal Action by the USA and its Leaders......Like Nazi Germany!

This next fact is absolutely Telling of How Criminally Corrupt the The George Bush Family really are, through their Leadership, by and through George Bush Sr and his cronies like James Baker.......and Margaret Thatcher, the PM of Britain at the time of the 1st Gulf War.........Fact

Question: Can anyone time me where they (Bush & Thatcher) were ..... when the Iraqi Leader invaded Kuwait? The 1st Gulf War Well can anyone remember?

They were both Bush Sr. & Thatcher in Aspen, Colorado...........Fact

Now They just organized a Multi-Nation counter attack force, including thousands of U.S. and British Soldiers, and Bush and Thatcher go off to Aspen,...................................Fact

Then there is this.....when Bush Sr. was ask in Aspen "why the multi- national force was not attacking the invasion forces 1 day, 2 days after Iraqi forces were actually inside Kuwait"....this ask directly to Bush Sr. while he was on camera.........(it is all on Tape)...........

George Bush Sr. the President of the USA......said this and I quote him here, "well it is hard to run a War from here" meaning Aspen, Colorado......Fact

On the 3rd day Bush Sr. and Thatcher finally left Aspen and arrived back in DC.......which by any form of the Presidential Fleet of Planes is no more than 3 to 4 hrs away............but Aspen the Ski Resort is owned by a Texas Oil Family............I am sure they all were very happy$$$$$$$$.

So Do You Now Know ....it...the 1st Iraq War "Was a Setup"....It was "Let to Happen"

as the rest of the World now knows it was.........

Now we go to his "Boy George".......George Bush Jr.......

Again.......Oil Prices are in the tank..............................

The new Bush Jr War will again increase oil prices by 400%

It has been 10 yrs.....guys.... come on..... time to raise oil prices.

Time for another needless Bush War.....................

Time to kill 100,000s of thousands of Iraqis and thousands of US Soldiers....most young kids from Poor American Families.

Just what Cheney and Bush need to profit their companies like Halliburton, and Oil companies from Wyoming to Texas and the Saudi Royal Family and even the British Monarch who holds stock in the North Sea Oil Companies........another needless Bush War.

Cheney and Bush with the Full Support of Bush Sr..........remember

"Father like Son".............a perverted family like the Bush Family

Bush Sr .....needless.... "Let to Happen War".... followed by a National Economic Collapse of 1988,89,90,91,and part of 92. which included the Real Estate market collapse. Bush Jr.......needless... "Created War"............. followed by another National Economic Collapse of 2008,09,10,11,12 and included again a Real Estate market collapse, but this time they both were much larger........Trillions of Dollars in losses larger. But their companies and supporters made billions, 100s of billions.

"Like Father Like Son"..............."Let to Happen or Created"

Cheney, Bush, Powell, Rumfelt and the rest dreamed up WMDs for the 2nd Iraq War...remember: Weapons of Mass Destruction......

but there weren't any....no atomic weapons, no chemical lab trucks running around Iraq creating chemical or bio weapons as Colin Powell told the UN General Assemble....remember......, Iraq did not buy Yellow Cake from South Africa as Cheney stated and when it was discovered Cheney and Bush were deliberately lying, criminally lying they outed CIA agent Valerie Plame because her Husband, Joe Wilson's fact finding mission to South Africa found absolutely no evidence of South Africa selling Yellow Cake material for a WMD weapon to Iraq...none.

Iraq had NO missiles, NO long range air force, NO weapons of mass destruction. It was all a deliberate lie. One that killed 100,000s thousands.

Bush, Cheney, Rumfelt, Powell, and continuing on with Connie Rice and the rest of their perverted War Criminal Gang...........illegally invaded a Country and killed 600,000 to 1,000,000 Iraqi Civilians...and thousand of US Soldiers.....

Bush Sr and Margaret Thatcher killed another 200,000...10 yrs earlier....many dying in that War from Leukemia...men, women and children, fathers, mothers, sons and daughters from contaminated shell casings that had once contained nuclear material...........A War Crime!

Now we have a President in Obama who not only continued these needless Wars as did Nixon years earlier for the same reasons, failed leadership...and for the continuing profits for the Defense Industries and companies like the Bechtel Group out of San Francisco in the rebuilding of Iraq which cost US Taxpayers 100's of billions, but made a Bush supporter like Bechtel billions......look at their corporate and personal political contributions to the Bush Campaigns.

It is time to End.... War....it is time to make it .....a Global Crime!

It is time to follow the lead of.... "The Prosecution of George Bush for Murder"... by U.S. Attorney and L.A. Prosecutor Vincent Bolglosi. His case for the prosecution is Solid. It is time for a Citizens Group Arrest and Trial of GW Bush Jr., for War Crimes & International Terrorism both Social and Economic Terrorism,

and in my Opinion it is the time for a Citizens Group Arrest and Trial of criminally corrupt father: GHW Bush for War Crimes in Panama and the deliberate setup of drug cartel money laundering through Panamanian Banks, into Banks such as HSBC.

Do Not Wait any longer for Obama,

Do Not Wait any longer for the FBI

Do Not Wait any longer for the US Attorney General

............work with Panamanians and Switzerland and bring father and son...both..Global Terrorists to Trial and Execution...........................

..................Now is the time to end War.............................JPE

There are so many inaccuracies in your post, its not even funny.

Above all though, comparing US conflicts with Iraq to Nazi Germany is just disgusting, and proves how ignorant, and ill-informed you are. I'd be concerned about you spreading lies to those more ignorant than you, but your post just seems like poorly-typed rambling non-sense, that I don't think you make a convincing argument on any of your points.

So we should not have gone after the terrorists from 9/11. Remeber all these wars were backed by a coalition of countries.
