Array ( [sid] => 70603 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => FALLUJAH: AMERICAN WAR CRIME IN THE MAKING [time] => 2004-11-08 09:47:17 [hometext] => [bodytext] => We have to hope that the beasts
can be brought to their cage
And let sense rule once more
not this rage

Too much delusion has been spread
Too many deceptions we were fed
Such a ridiculous thought
That by these methods peace be bought

The elite beasts truly beggar belief
Controlled by liars led by a thief
What a nightmare still surrounds
The actions of Bush’s war hounds

Now’s the time all this was ended
And American’s true interested were defended
Let’s hope we see the quiet American again
Where genuine wisdom falls like quiet rain

We have to hope that the hawkish few
Have almost had their ugly day
Those sneering apes
For yet more death still seem to pray

The times brought them out
beating thei hoary chests
All those snarling voices
they thought impressed

To bring peace through hate
will never work
Just bellowing more ingnorance
in the murk

With a braindead leader
using hounds of Hell
Look at the depths
to which America fell…


--O//--


And now Fallujah awaits
Innocent blood will be spilled
And new hatred born again
With Iraqi citizen killed

And will that really bring the end?
I don't think so, do you
And will Bush merely shrug and say
There was nothing I could do?

So many now have died
Because this man lied and lied
How many more innocents will fall
Before he heeds the call

To use honesty and truth
Not warmongering uncouth
That nothing in the world is black and white
And lying just is not right

Fallujah awaits another blood bath
Bush keeps on pushing his ugly path
And so many American lives are lost
When, just WHEN will we count the cost...?

I am generally more professional than this, but it is VERY sad that in all the years you have been here you have not learned to use the private message system or have you really read and commented like you should have been all along. :( Thank you.

If your going for the "man of conviction" speech its not workin for ya bud. Its a war, America maybe be the greatest country in the world but not immortal. People die in wars. And what are these lies?!?! If you want to listen to the worst liar in the world he just lost the Presidency, he also voted for the war in Iraq.

Damn man so true. I am getting sick of all the
rhetoric that war is the way to do things. It just
fosters more and more hate and more and
more despair. It's sad that so many leaders
are blind to this. Diplomacy doesn't work they
say, but Ayad Allawi TRIED to reach an
agreement and some insurgents turned in
their weapons, but U.S. warmongerers seem
to feed off of the dead of the innocent. It's sad
really and the U.S. regime will do everything
in their power to keep the true cost hidden.
