Someone compared Bush to Caligula.
Roman emperor Caligula was removing heads
of Gods and putting his own head on it.
Bush is removing Heads of States and
Bush is putting his own head on it.
Is Bush mad like Caligula?
Bush Rapid Force
remove Head of State
and his Rapid Response Force
rapidly install Bush head instead.
Is Bush mad like Caligula?
Bush is not only losing Iraq
-- Bush is losing the world.
One hears more and more people saying
I wouldn't go to the USA.
Some people won't go transit USA.
Bush cannot canquer Iraq — yet Bush is imagining conquerring
the World with Star Wars.
Is Bush mad like Caligula?
We should start thinking what the world
will be like after the demise of the USA.

I was watching a video from snowshoefilms on depleted uranium. It was made about three years ago and it mentioned that around 150.000 U.S. veterans of the '91 war are now on disability war pensions, and the number is increasing fast.
Although the pentagon won't admit it, DU is very poisonous. Nor will they give these troops proper medical treatment for DU poisoning, even if such were available. The troops have to fund their own private chemical testing that shows high levels of uranium in their urine. Their rates of cancer, and of offspring deformity, are far higher than in the normal population.
This must be one reason behind the shortage of troops, as veterans of Gulf War 1 can't go to this current caper. I bet that had there been 150,000 able bodied veterans a fair number would be still offering to join this war.
So the penatgon has really shot itself in the foot over the use of depleted uranium. It has killed its own soldiers in colossal numbers.
As for Iraqis, Afghanis, Kosovars, and all the other luckless recipients of US/UK depleted uranium, they have to live with the horrid stuff on their home soil. It must be even worse for them.
