This cartoon caught my attention after watching the ABC Sunday morning round table with Fareed Zakaria causing my favorite Neo-con poopwit William Kristol to implode, per usual, Billy Kristol who with his NeoCon Weekly Standard is more responsible for the call to the Iraq War than anyone else in the media, and for some crazy reason we still listen to. Gosh…
Hemingway, Zakaria was saying that since we screwed up Iraq and put the entire Middle East in a giant mess of religious anarchy from Libya to Syria there are no longer any “states”, it is now all just Shiite versus Sunni across the land. No grounding in national states as they were mostly all founded and put under the boot of leadership regimes. Oh Little Billy Kristol didn’t like hearing that and began turning red. By the time Zakaria explained that the MAJORITY of the American voting public, the politics of it, do not want anything to do with the mess in the Middle East any more. We see them as all crazy and let them have at it without us. That turned poor little Billy so purple Mr. Snuffleupagus had to cut the show off before he exploded.
Father of the Neo Con movement and of Billy Kristol, Irving Kristol got so angry about H Bush not marching into Baghdad in 1991 that he bought the Weekly Standard from Rupert Murdock and gave it to his son Little Billy. It immediately became the American voice of Neo Conservatives, to above all go to war with Iraq. Which William Kristol and friends, John Bolton et al, managed to get W Bush to do. A 10 year war that is now seen as the biggest mistake in foreign policy we American ever made. And WIlliam Kristol is still pushing it as his great idea.
I would guess that no man has been more wrong about anything than William Kristol and he is still on all these talk shows. Why is that? Why is someone so wrong about so much so special that we can’t throw him out the door? After you arrive at the answer to that you will also have answer to the cause of most of your problems in foreign policy.
