To whom it may concern,

In my entire lifetime of 35 years have I ever read such a "ragsheet" full of mindless,uninformed and ANTI AMERICAN dribble. Some day you idiots will wake up and realize what the real world is about.If this country is so evil and so unfair,why don't you move the hell out,say to Iraq,since they deserve so much of yoursupport, instead of our troops and President Bush trying to preserve the rights of assholes like you!

There you have it. Go see it.

There's more to say below. But first:

Never before in the history of the United States presidency has a think tank had such an impact on shaping U.S. foreign policy as the Project for the New American Century has on helping President George W. Bush set foreign policy goals for his Administration, particularly dictating exactly how Bush should deal with Iraq and its President, Saddam Hussein.

For the past six years, PNAC has lobbied former President Clinton and Bush heavily to initiate a war in Iraq and remove Saddam Hussein from power, claiming the country poses a serious threat to the U.S. and its allies because of its ability to develop weapons of mass destruction. Clinton rebuffed the advice by PNAC members during the last four years of his presidency, but Bush has virtually used, word for word, the written statements by PNAC members when he speaks publicly about Iraq crisis.

AUSTIN, Texas -- When we need a laugh in grim times, we count on our Attorney General John Ashcroft, the Whoopi Goldberg of the Bush administration. This week, Ashcroft took time off from tracking down terrorists in order to bust 55 people for selling for selling rolling papers, pipes and other drug paraphernalia. Nice to see a man who's got his priorities straight.

Onward. Let's review the bidding on North Korea. "Review the bidding" is a bridge term for "how the hell did we get into this mess?" In 1994, the Clinton administration came to something called the Agreed Framework with North Korea, under which Pyongyang agreed to put its 8,000 spent nuclear fuel rods -- which can be easily converted into weapons-grade plutonium -- into storage, watched over by U.N. inspectors and cameras. In return, they were supposed to get two light-water nuclear reactors and economic and diplomatic relations.

As I write this it seems all but inevitable that war will be coming to your country in a matter of weeks. The Turkish government has agreed to host U.S. troops (despite 90% of the population objecting), in Eastern Turkey which will means the U.S. generals have gotten their coveted two-front war.

Between the obvious repression of free speech in your country and the U.S. media's unwillingness to dig for popular Iraqi sentiment, we in America know little about how you feel concerning a U.S. invasion-we can only guess that you are terrified now and busy planning for the survival of your family.

We know that you have been oppressed and brutalized by Saddam Hussein and his tyrants, and that your hatred for him has never been in question, but whether you want Americans to invade your country, topple the government, occupy the nation and manufacture a new regime for you based largely on what U.S. officials consider appropriate, remains to be seen.

Although the Bush administration says its coming war will be directed against Saddam Hussein and his military supporters only, you know as well as I, that
