[Normally I''m kicked out of Tribune newspapers
but since I am using a different system, I got through
(article copied below).]
The Fool's Goal is the forward bases all around Middle Eastern
Oil due to the fact of the Russian variable speed ICBMs which
cannot be destroyed unless they are kicked out while they still have
their booster attached.
The booster phase is not a variable speed/direction stage.
The "forward bases" are discussed on pages 19 and 51 of the
PNAC document, the pertinent parts of the PNAC pdf you can find
on the homepage of my website

Next question: Why aren't the Democrats saying this?
Because they know who did 9/11 and don't want to start
an international riot.
We have no defense against Russian variable speed intercontinental
ballistic missiles. So, BushCo gambled on this big huge lie that
we were attacked by "terrorists" on 9/11.

Bush: 'I'm the decision-maker'
Posted by Mark Silva at 10:35 am, updated at 11:40 am CST
President Bush, convening war counselors in the Oval Office this
morning, said
he will be unswayed by a resolution moving through the Senate to oppose
his
deployment of additional troops to Iraq.
"I know there is skepticism and pessimism, and that they are - some
are -
condemning a plan before it's even had a chance to work,'' Bush
told reporters
allowed a couple of questions afterward. "They have an obligation and a
serious
responsibility, therefore, to put up their own plan as to what would
work,'' the
president said. "I've listened to lots of members of Congress. I've
listened
carefully to their suggestions. And I have picked the plan that I think
is most
likely to succeed, because I understand, like many in Congress
understand,
success is very important for the security of the country.''
The president's Oval Office session today included Secretary of
Defense Robert,
Marine Gen. Peter Pace, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, and Army
Lt. Gen.
David Petraeus, incoming commander of Multi-National Forces in Iraq,
whose
assignment was confirmed by the Senate even as they spoke.
The full Senate is preparing to debate a non-binding resolution
approved by the
Senate Foreign Relations Committee this week calling the deployment of
additonal
forces contrary to "the national interest.'' Bush, who asked
Congress to have
patience with this deployment during his State of the Union to a joint
session
of Congress address this week, was asked today if he believes it's
"Okay'' to
proceed without their support.
"One of the things that I've found in Congress is that most people
recognize
that failure would be a disaster for the United States, and in that I'm
the
decision-maker, I had to come up with a way forward that precluded
disaster,''
he said. "In other words, I had to think about what's likely to work.
And so I worked with our military and I worked with Secretary Gates to
come up
with a plan that is likely to succeed. And the implementor of that plan
is going
to be General Petraeus.''
The president, addressing fellow Republicans at a retreat on the
Eastern shore
of Maryland later today, repeated his determination to press ahead in
Iraq.
"I fully understand there are differences of opinion,'' Bush said at
the party's
congressional conference at a Cambridge, Md., resort hotel. In
Washington, he
said, "people understand the consequences of failure... The plan that I
outlined
to the American people is one I believe can succeed.''
The president also plans to address congressional Democrats at their
retreat
next weekend in Williamsburg, Va., the first time he has gone to a
Democratic
retreat since his first year in office.
The president maintained today, during his brief talk with reporters in
the Oval
Office following his meeting with military leaders, that his resolve to
attack
Iranian-backed forces supporting insurgents or sectarian violence
inside Iraq will not lead to any
direct confontation with Iran.
"Now, some are trying to say that because we're enforcing -- helping
ourselves
in Iraq by stopping outside influence from killing our soldiers or
hurting Iraqi
people -- that we want to expand this beyond the borders,'' Bush
said. "That's a
presumption that simply is not accurate. We believe that we can solve
our
problems with Iran diplomatically, and are working to do that. As a
matter of
fact, we're making pretty good progress on that front.''
"I made it very clear, as has the secretary, that our policy is going
to be to
protect our troops in Iraq,'' Bush said. "It just makes sense
that if somebody
is trying to harm our troops or stop us from achieving our goal, or
killing
innocent citizens in Iraq, that we will -- we will stop them. It's an
obligation
we all have... to protect our folks and achieve our goal.
"And so yeah, we're going to continue to protect ourselves in Iraq,
and at the
same time work to solve our problems with Iran diplomatically,''
said Bush,
attempting to convince Iran to abandon the development of nuclear
weaponry. "And
I believe we can succeed. The choice is the Iranian government's
choice.... So
we're working diplomatically, and I believe we can solve our problems
peacefully. ''
