JERRY TENUTO
A power mad brutal, psychopathic murderer is nothing more than what he is, whether his reign of terror emanates from the Chicago suburb of Cicero, or the Baghdad suburb of Baquba, or Washington, D.C.

King George XLIII continually referred to al-Zarkawi as a brutal, sadistic murderer of thousands, who beheaded innocent foreign workers in Iraq.

The part that His Excellency omits is how the door was opened to al-Zarkawi, allowing him access into the Iraqi insurgency network: Had the BushCheney illegal Fascist regime not lied to the entire world and overrun Iraq in a blitzkrieg highly reminiscent of the 1939 German takeover of Poland, Abu Mussab al-Zarkawi never would have approached anywhere near the position he achieved.

Had George W. Bush not ordered the deaths of what is now approaching a quarter-million innocent Iraqi civilians, and some 2,500 American troops ? plus the countless tens of thousands more who are scarred or maimed for life, physically as well as emotionally ? al-Zarkawi could never have instigated his disciples to kill and maim thousands more. Without Bush?s self-serving war he wouldn?t have even had most of those disciples; there would not have been any reason.

However, as I stated at the top, by bombing Iraq?s latest mass-murderer the American master-mass-murderer has made a martyr out of al-Zarkawi. And we all know what happens when Muslims get themselves a new martyr, don?t we?

They go on killing sprees in the name of that martyr!

I was thinking the following, then saw Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del. on the telly speaking my thoughts: Okay, we got this guy (I?m paraphrasing here), and things might quiet down for a while. But in two weeks or so, people will begin to be pulled off of buses again and shot, workers will be kidnapped and beheaded, car bombs will be set off in crowded areas. And there will be yet another fanatical leader our troops will have to ferret out.

It?s an endless cycle.


I?ve written this before, but it requires repeating: George W. Bush should have really paid more attention in Early American History class. Our Nation?s founders were the insurgents to the king?s occupation forces. George Washington?s Continental Army, despite being overmatched in every possible way, never gave up.

The British eventually went back across the pond.

No insurgent movement ever quits.

Even the French Resistance fought off German invaders. (Well, there were women to help show the men how to be brave.)

There was a Bush, and Rummy, behind the creation of Saddam Hussein. There was a Bush, and Rummy, behind the ruination of Hussein and Iraq. There was a Bush, and Rummy, behind the creation of Abu Mussab al-Zarkawi. There was a Bush, and Rummy, behind the ruination of al-Zarkawi.

There will be a Bush, and Rummy, behind the creation of the next Hussein/al-Zarkawi.

Thousands more will die and be maimed.

And none of this needed to ever happen.
