Here is an interesting conundrum for you and your people to chew on: The Pentagon is hastily moving US troops stationed in Europe and Asia either to Iraq or to nearby areas like Italy. They are moving two divisions from Germany, one from South Korea and others from different areas. Also, main headquarters is being shifted from England to Italy. Now couple this information with the extension of tours of duty of all American military units now on active service, Kerrey’s “backdoor draft” and we have an interesting situation. If Bush wants to withdraw from Iraq within a month, why all of these troop movements? I had dinner with a friend of my wife’s whose husband is a civilian with the DoD and from that source I learn that we are not going to get out of Iraq. Loud proclamations that we are going to leave will be made but at the very last moment, the new puppet régime there, bought and paid for by the US, will make an “impassioned appeal” to Bush to allow American troops to remain “for just a little while” until the fledgling new and democratic Iraqi government can get safely off the ground.
This request, as I understand it, was written in the White House, sent to the Pentagon and forwarded to Iraq. The scenario has been carefully scripted, down to the last “sad but resolute” GI interview from a soldier that really wants to go home but realizes now that our beloved President has the vision and compassion to assist the growth of democracy in an area where it has never been before. Sounds just like something Josef Stalin would order done. No, we are not going to get out of Iraq at all; we will be there for at least five more years according to three sources who ought to know. Recruitment has effectively stopped so the military won’t release those men whose tours are over. They will stay in either until Bush is defeated in November or, if he is reelected, he can institute the draft he and his people have carefully planned for all along.
When I said a few days ago that the witch hunt for leakers has died down, I was wrong. It has just gone underground but is still just as intense. Bush is in a crazy rage about all the resistance he has been facing. He believes very firmly that he is acting on the orders of God Almighty and that anyone, be it the head of the CIA or some rogue reporter, must be punished for daring to thwart the Will of God! Some of the saner staffers here are becoming distinctly edgy and some are thinking of quitting but God help any of them who quit and talk! They have signed agreements to never, never discuss anything that they have learned while in the White House. I said before that Bush was a mean, vicious man and it is starting to slop out of the Presidential bedpan into the halls of power. I said there is something really wrong with this man (I personally think that he is as crazy as a loon…an unscientific diagnosis but given what I have seen and heard of him, not inaccurate) and events will prove me right!
