The biggest disaster to have hit us all


I came across this video grab from Sky News and found the text quite amusing. Was someone at the TV station trying to be cheeky with the wordings?

However, after seeing what the president has done and said all this while, it is no wonder that many would feel he IS the worst disaster to have hit not just America, but the world as well.

And he continues his disastrous leadership by totally underplaying the Israeli shelling of Palestine and Lebanon in the past two weeks.

No doubt he finally sends his Secretary of State to talk truce but who is going to listen to her now? Not the Palestinians or the Hizbullah. By the way the Israelis have been acting with impunity in indiscriminate rocket attacks, one just wonder how much of tacit support they have already garnered from White House prior to this.

More disappointingly, Bush had not helped to ease the situation at all. As a leader of a super power, he should not have waited two weeks before trying to propose a ceasefire plan now.

As I see it, Condoleezza Rice’s truce plans will not work. Why? Because her president has prejudiced it by openly proclaiming the guilt of Hizbullah even when the rest of the world know that both Israel and Hizbullah are jointly to be blamed for the human tragedy that is happening in the Middle East now.

On July 17, while attending the G8 summit in Russia, Bush was caught on the mike telling Blair: "See, the irony is that what they need to do is get Syria to get Hizbullah to stop doing this shit, and it's over". (Watch the video clip here)

Getting Hizbullah to stop this s**t? Hello? How about getting Israel to stop their s**t too Mr President. Look at the latest civilian body count – more people have been killed, displaced and terrorized in Lebanon than in Israel.

After days of continued bombing, apparently Lebanon has been pushed back 20 years in terms of development.

And now he sends his Secretary of State to talk peace. Maybe after all the damage that has been done, perhaps Israel will be ready to talk ceasefire. Who knows, that could be the master plan all along.
