Fisk on What's Behind the Saudi Bombing This is interesting. Fisk suggests that attacks such as this last one are "part of a growing insurrection against bin Laden's enemies in the House of Saud," and that these rebels are undertaking these events in order to "make the kingdom ungovernable," as Iraq is becoming. It makes sense, and yet, are they not aware that the US will move in to fill the void? If Fisk is right, it's only the extreme stupidity of Bush's tactics that have so far turned public opinion agains...

Why We Didn't Remove Saddam 
On 21 September 2002, The Memory Hole posted an extract from an essay by George Bush Sr. and Brent Scowcroft, in which they explain why they didn't have the military push into Iraq and topple Saddam during Gulf War 1. Although there are differences between the Iraq situations in 1991 and 2002-3, Bush's key points apply to both. But a funny thing happened. Fairly recently, Time pulled the essay off of their site. It used to be on their website, which now gives a 404 error. If you go to the ta...

Cannon Fodder The Bush administration has cut veteran's benefits and forced wounded American soldiers to pay for hospital meals. They have kept returning sick and wounded American soldiers in miserable conditions on US military bases and made them wait months for doctor's appointments. Now, they want to close schools and commissaries on military bases and privatize the remaining commissaries. Oh well, that means more taxpayer money for Halliburton, Bechtel and all other American corporations profiting imme...

Robert Fisk: How we denied democracy to the Middle East Now let's have another linguistic analysis of Mr Bush's words. "The failure of Iraqi democracy," he told us two days ago, "would embolden terrorists around the world, increase dangers to the American people, and extinguish the hopes of millions in the region." Here's another take: the failure of the Bush administration to control Israel's settlement-building on Arab land would embolden terrorists around the world, increase dangers to the American people and extinguish the ...
