Have the repubs set up the election in Iraq...
The Iraqis have voted now 3 or 4 times for one thing or another and this time the bushies are acting like they have achieved victory.I know that the Sunnis have voted but the votes haven't been counted yet.


The bushies want us to get excited about them voting when they are playing with our votes here, do they think we are going to trust them again. What will they do If they find out they haven't voted their way? They know it is not going to go their way that is why they are saying the dems need to jump on board for the sake of this country,because when it all goes down they will have the Dems to blame also for the 2006 election.

They set it up ahead of time by saying there will still be violence so that everyone will say bush said it first.

1. Just like Sy Hersch wrote about the first election there, the BFEE
rigged it so that there was no majority. They can easily do it again. And I am sure they will. And most of those poor people actually think what they are doing by voting matters! Hey, just like here in the US.

I remember after the first election there was a kind of mysterious 2-3 day delay before the results were announced. Look for the same with this one !

2. Why should I give a pasty fuck about Iraqi elections
When ones in the US are not counted accurately?

3. Hide and watch
The Kurds, Sunnis and Shia still hate each other and the election will not change a thing. It may give us an excuse to start withdrawing some of our troups.

5. They also want the Europeans and the U. N. so that they can say...
" they had the same information that we had" and they will also say it went bad because we talked against their commander and thief.
