BULLY BOY PRESS - DC.
THIS JUST IN!
THE DO NOTHING ADMINISTRATION SAYS "KEEP DOING NOTHING!"
THIS REPORTER SPOKE WITH ZALMAY KHALILZAD WHO WENT FROM BEING THE US POINT MAN IN AFGHANISTAN TO THE POINT MAN IN IRAQ WHICH IS SORT OF LIKE BEING THE CAPTAIN OF THE TITANIC AND BECOMING THE C.E.O. OF ENRON.
AFTER LAUGHING WITH AMBASSADOR KHALILZAD OVER TALES OF DEXTER FILKINS LAP DANCES FOR THE U.S. MILITARY, OUR TALK TURNED SERIOUS.
HE CONCEEDED THAT ""THERE IS SIGNIFICANT SECTARIAN VIOLENCE, NO DOUBT ABOUT IT."
BUT HE SHIED AWAY FROM LABELING A CIVIL WAR WHILE AT THE SAME TIME DECLARING THAT A U.S. "DEPARTURE COULD UNLEASH A SECTARIAN CIVIL WAR."
ROUGHLY HE IS SAYING WE MAY BE AT THE POINT OF A CIVIL WAR, THOUGH HE DOES NOT LIKE THE TERM, BUT IF WE LEAVE IT WILL BE A CIVIL WAR, AND HE IS HAPPY TO USE THE TERM THEN.
SO THE U.S. GOVERNMENT WILL CONTINUE TO DO NOTHING.
IT WILL STAY IN IRAQ INCREASING THE VIOLENCE AND POSSIBLY AMBASSADOR KHALILZAD WILL DECIDE HE DOES NOT MIND USING "CIVIL WAR" TO DESCRIBE REALITY. POSSIBLY HE WILL NOT.
BUT THE CURRENT "LOGIC" FROM D.C. IS THAT WE MAY BE SEEING THE BEGINNING OF A CIVIL WAR BUT WE CANNONT LEAVE BECAUSE IT MIGHT CAUSE A CIVIL WAR.
LIKE A REALLY BAD BLIND DATE THAT CANNOT END BECAUSE WHO KNOWS WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN, THE "LOGIC" SAYS WE MUST STAY, MORE US TROOPS AND MORE IRAQIS MUST DIE, AND NO ONE MUST EVER POINT THAT THE ONLY MUSHROOM CLOUD D.C. HAS SEEN RECENTLY CAME FROM A POWDER ROOM AFTER CONDI RICE DEPARTED.
