Before Chimpy McHitlerburton and his evil coterie of corporate oil barons cheated their way into office and began their monster truck rampage through history’s virginal meadows, tearing up sod and destroying all the pretty flowers…

…there was Halabja.  And yesterday marked the 17th anniversary of Saddam Hussein’s chemical attack on the Kurdish village. 7000 civilians were killed.

    Kind of hard to joke about Halabja.. its kind of like joking about “Konzentrations Lager” Auschwitz/Birkenau.. some things just dont lend themselves to humor… there’s no joke to be had no matter how hard you work it..

    The Halabja story is the story that the MSM should be focusing on.. Saddam, the fucker, hit those people with everything.. chemical.. bio.. radiation.. and just left them there to die..He tested weapons of war and weapons for terror.. Now the MSM portrays him like some old slightly senile grandfather being persecuted by the evil Bushco. Lawyers from around the globe flock to offer their services in defending this good man that brought free health care to Iraq.. what a saint..

    I just hope they televise his execution..

    Thanks for posting on this Jeff. This is one of the things you know…but it’s easy to forget since the major press seems reluctant to ever show us.

    Sort of like those mass graves. Of kids. And their dolls.

    Thanks for sending it along.  I didn’t see it anywhere yesterday.

    Jeff forgets the obvious, Saddam shook hands with Donald Rumsfeld *before* he ordered the gassing of 7,000 people.  After a handshake.

    Just imagine, if Paul Wolfowitz had slow danced with Saddam back in the early ‘80s, Saddam would have drained the marshes and slowly starve the Marsh Arabs.

    Bumper–Restate that for those of us who just didn’t get it. You know. In different words.

  6. Sure, there’s a picture of a Don Rumsfeld shaking hands with Saddam that was taken in 1983.  Rumsfeld was acting as a special envoy for Reagan.  You can see the picture here:

    Moonbats use this event as proof of Rumsfeld’s status as Evil Incarnate.  Witness this:

    Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein greets Donald Rumsfeld, then special envoy of U.S. President Ronald Reagan, in Baghdad on December 20, 1983. He gave him a pair of golden cowboy spurs – a present from Reagan.

    This meeting took place before one of the most shocking war crimes since the second world war – Iraq’s 1988 gassing of the Kurds in Halabjah

    Also, the Moonbattery extends to this: the golden cowboy spurs were later worn by Qusay Hussein as he kicked members of the Iraqi Soccer team after the tam lost a match, one-nil, to a game Cameroon national team. 

    {I kid, maybe}

    As for the “Paul Wolfowitz Slow Dancing with Saddam” hypothesis .. you have to consider the potent combination both men’s desire to lead and the rhythmic pulsing of the music.  In this case, it was The Police’s “I’ll be Watching You”.

    Oh, the Irony!

    But most importantly, were the Golden Cowboy Spurs recovered when Baghdad fell to the Americans, or does Saddam wear them casually around his prison cell with his slippers?

    Oh my God.. I just had an epiphany.. thats what this war is really all about isnt it ?  The Spurs.. W was pissed that Reagan gave the Magic Golden Satan Spurs to Saddam instead of to HW Bush as he’d promised.. (which of course W would inherit) .. So Bushitler and his Halliburton Minions led us into this Imperialistic War of Aggression, Attrition & Occupation.. and just like the WMDs , he cant find the Spurs either!

    We’ve got to stop him and his diabolic plan! If he gets hold of the Spurs of Power , eternal Democracy and Republicanism will descend on our world.

    One spur to rule them all

    One spur to find them

    One spur to bring them all

    And with their Freedom, bind them ..

    RECALL BUSH !! VOTE KERRY or HILLARY or

    ANYBODY BUT BUSH !!!!
