Humint Events Online: Here's the Thing I Have Never Understood If the Official 9/11 Story is True:

Here's the Thing I Have Never Understood If the Official 9/11 Story is True:

why did the Bush administration do such an incredibly piss-poor job of bringing democracy to Iraq?

There was almost no planning for the aftermath of the invasion, and what has emerged is hardly a secular democracy that is clearly friendly to US/western interests.

Let's say the Bush administration version of the 9/11 story is true-- the 9/11 attacks were carried out solely by crazed Islamists who bubbled up from the sick depths of Islamofascism (which made them into the fucked-up twisted creatures they were), and so they hated us and attacked us. They were fundamentalist Muslims who hated us for our western freedoms and for our support of Israel.

That's about it, right?

Okay, so the Bush administration said, let's not simply kill the terrorists-- let's fuckin' drain the swamp from which they arose. Let's make the Middle East more democratic (and I honestly have no problem with that, in principle). And Iraq is as goood a place as any to start, because they have this nasty dictator who might have had nasty weapons he could attack us with (somehow, maybe).

Anyway, the important thing is to drain the swamp. Because the sure way to prevent Islamic terrorism in the future is to make the Middle East democratic and make all the Muslims like us.

So, the real goal of invading Iraq was ultimately to prevent another 9/11, right?

And the ultimate way we could do that was by really promoting democracy and by doing nice things so Muslims would like us.

So what did we do in Iraq?

We turned it into fucking hell.

We tortured innocent Iraqis.

We bombed and shot and killed innocent Iraqis.

We did not have enough forces to secure the country and so terrorists took over that blew up innocent Iraqis.

One way or another, we killed thousands and thousands of Iraqis by invading Iraq, thus pissing off thousands and thousands of Iraqis.

Finally, instead of the secular society under Saddam Hussein, we established a Islamic fundamentalist government that is aligned with Iran.


So again, if the official 9/11 story is true, and we wanted to prevent another 9/11 by establishing a western-style democracy in Iraq, because it was a life and death matter--

why the hell didn't the Bush administration take more care and do it right???

Honestly, what they did in Iraq really makes no sense, unless:

a) 9/11 was all a lie and the Bush administration has always had complete control over any major terrorist attack

b) the Bush administration really wants to create more terrorists.

c) both of the above


SUNDAY 2/12/05 UPDATE:
the option (c) was added in response to a comment.

Further note-- I know the mainstream explanation for the difficulties in Iraq are incompetence on the part of the Bush administration, but this simply doesn't hold water. Incompetence doesn't make you torture people or throw out an extensive post-invasion plan crafted by the State Department. Iraq was a HUGE UNDERTAKING, hugely expensive, with the lives of millions at stake. If we buy the Bush administration line, the future of the US was at stake. This was not some trivial deal that they could do a rush job on. A good analogy to what the Bush administration did in Iraq would be a heart surgeon doing a quadruple bypass then forgetting to sew the arteries up and just pushing the chest together without staples or stitches. Even the worst surgeon wouldn't do that. Yes, I know war is unpredictable and all that. But the Bush administration clearly threw out any reasonable approach and took an incredibly haphazard, essentially deleterious approach to the whole post-invasion period.

In the Iraq war, the future of the Middle East was at stake and the future of the US was at stake-- heck, according to the Bush administration's logic, the fate of the world was at stake, since the US is such an "indispensible player".

Yet they did a BOTCH JOB.


This makes NO sense by any official mainstream logic.

But it DOES make sense if 9/11 was a sham!

Wow!!!

Great post. About high time someone put it that way.

You have to post it around the usual places like DU, but other blogs too.

Mind if I copy and paste?

Let them understand exactly why we are mad as hell.

(you're really good at S11 stuff but your "political" stuff is just as good)

Thanks
