President Bush held up Israel as a model for defining success in Iraq, saying Thursday the U.S. goal there is not to eliminate attacks but to enable a democracy that can function despite violence.

Yes, "We are trying to make a second Israel" is a good way of dampening down on protests and violence in the Middle East.

Peace is probably right around the corner, when Arabs embrace the "Two-Israel Policy".

Bush made the boneheaded analogy in a prepared speech. Hard to believe it would have been completely off the cuff.

And the "truthers" think this bunch on nincompoops have been able to keep their 9/11 involvement secret for almost six years?

Said Bush:
quote:
"It's a well-conceived plan by smart military people, And we owe them the time, and we own them the support they need to succeed.

Yeap ! Put beside you, a head of lettuce would look smart !
