Neocon Nuttery See other Neocon Nuttery Articles Title: Lord Shiva’s Dance (SCOTT HORTON ON BUSH'S GOD) Lord Shiva’s Dance George W. Bush seems to have fits of divine inspiration whenever he gets into the vicinity of the Middle East. Back in 2003, shortly after the invasion of Iraq, he met with a delegation of Palestinians in the Egyptian resort of Sharm el-Sheikh. One participant told the Guardian: Mr Bush went on: “And now, again, I feel God’s words coming to me, ‘Go get the Palestinians their state and get the Israelis their security, and get peace in the Middle East’. And, by God, I’m gonna do it.” Of course, looking back on Bush’s divinely inspired works, one wonders about the identity of the deity with whom Bush is conversing. That he was the God of Abraham seems highly improbable. Cartoonists in the United States have regularly given Bush’s God the bodily manifestation and voice of a Yale dropout and retired corporate executive named Dick Cheney. But this lacks imagination. No one doubts the involvement of Dick Cheney in this orgy of blood and destruction, but he himself is merely a mortal vessel serving the god of war and destruction. I’m zeroing in on the Godhead in question, and I’m increasingly convinced that he’s a denizen of the South Asian subcontinent, and in particular the Lord Shiva. He’s famous for a dance of destruction, creating the way for Lord Brahma, the creator. But no doubt about it, Bush is in the gallery of presidents a tremendously potent destructive force. Lord Brahma may, of course, follow in his wake. But I wouldn’t count on it. And now that he’s back on the last Middle Eastern junket of his presidency, the Lord of Darkness and Destruction once again has the president’s ear. Michael Hirsh writes in Newsweek of a president full of Kriegslust who repudiates the calming tones of the latest National Intelligence Estimate and its downplaying of the nuclear threat from Iran: A source close to the Israeli leader said Bush first briefed Olmert about the intelligence estimate a week before it was published, during talks in Washington that preceded the Annapolis peace conference in November. According to the source, who also refused to be named discussing the issue, Bush told Olmert he was uncomfortable with the findings and seemed almost apologetic. And there is a certain thematic continuity that joins Bush’s dialogue with Israeli leaders and with the Arabs. He’s obsessed with one topic, and that is making war on Iran. Consider for instance this Washington Post report from his meetings with Gulf state leaders by Michael Abramowitz: Bush is trying to persuade Arab countries to join U.S. efforts to pressure Iran, though many appear ambivalent about the administration’s campaign following a new U.S. intelligence report that concluded Iran stopped a nuclear weapons program in 2003. Funny, isn’t it, how the inspired Leader’s visit to the Middle East was immediately preceded by an Iranian act of provocation which was promptly touted as a casus belli by the Neocon war party. Then it turns out that the nation’s military leadership was itself hardly convinced that the dramatic incidents widely spread in the media had occurred as reported. And then we learn that the acts of provocation were, most likely, the pranks of a Filipino hacker. Americans can feel secure. The Maker of Empires and Creator of Separate Realities is out making the world safe from its greatest threat, namely Iranian speedboats not build to code and Filipino pranksters. Why should he be troubled about trivia like the collapsing political situation in Iraq, the resurgence of the Taliban in Afghanistan, or the rapidly approaching implosion of Pakistan, a nation with nuclear weapons and delivery systems that is the undisputed epicenter of radicalized political Islam? Why that figures nowhere on the agenda. Now back to the dance. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top • Page Up • Full Thread • Page Down • Bottom/Latest

Mr Bush went on: “And now, again, I feel God’s words coming to me, ‘Go get the Palestinians their state and get the Israelis their security, and get peace in the Middle East’. And, by God, I’m gonna do it.” It smells like the Onion, but it isn't, it's the Guardian.
Ron Paul for President - Join a Ron Paul Meetup group today! We are an embarrassment to the world. Former colonies are wondering why we attempted to set ourselves apart from their former tormentors. Of course they have been undermining our revolution for 220 years.
They've got loony tunes in the WH spouting strange religious sounding rhetoric which they hope will resonate with the confused Bible thumpers. All the while they are cutting deals, using blackmail, bribery & extortion, to benefit themselves and their evil, bizarro NWO plan, but there may be objections from another powerful faction. The war with Iran has been delayed. Considering CIA-acknowledged evil from the 50s and 60s, there's no telling what may happen next.
Ron Paul for President - Join a Ron Paul Meetup group today! I had a strange insight the other day. It struck me that the voter fraud could be built into our system. Then someone on TOS2 who claims to have had a parent in one of the services said that computerized machines were intended to defend us against the communists. Of course Ron Paul is a massive threat to the bureaucracies of our government. It's not too far-fetched to imagine that they can see him as an enemy even though he advocates a return to the Constitution. All of this is pure speculation on my part, call it political speculative fiction. Except for the comment I read.
That's not speculation. This corrupt system they've built depends upon dirty politicians (even full-fledged traitors). RP is so in the way.
Ron Paul for President - Join a Ron Paul Meetup group today! They need to understand that they become the enemy themselves if they decide to take our elections into their own hands. They are the communists at that point.
He's gotta be from Itzrahell, and everyone knows it.
