If there's an al Qaeda ally, it's George

robert parry at consortium news has been prolific these past few days... here's his analysis of how bushco's misbegotten policies and blind stubbornness is fanning the flames of islamic terrorism...

[W]hen Bush prescribes an offensive strategy – “to go after the terrorists where they live … until the terrorists have nowhere to run and nowhere to hide” – his projection of U.S. power into the Islamic world not only portends a virtually endless war but has the detrimental effect of reinforcing the arguments that Islamic extremists use to recruit impressionable young people to terrorism.

For that reason, some observers see the current dynamic as a vicious cycle – an escalating pattern of tit-for-tat violence with both sides nursing grievances bathed in blood. More cynical analysts go further, seeing a symbiotic relationship in which Bush and bin-Laden – whether wittingly or not – serve each other’s political needs.

lemme put my cards on the table here... bush is not a stupid man... the people around him are not stupid either... it stretches the bounds of rationality past their breaking point to think that bushco's policies are the result of bumbling, incompetence and shortsightedness... if they're not, what does that leave us with...? in all candor, i can only surmise that bushco WANTS to fuel terrorist ambitions... nothing else makes any sense whatsoever... "unwittingly" is just absurd...
