TURNING POINT

Friday, August 11, 2006 will henceforth be recognized as the day I started to lose respect for President George W. Bush. It was that day his government embraced the United Nations resolution for a ceasefire between our ally Israel and the terrorist organization Hezbollah. In doing so, the United States has turned it’s back on Israel, leaving it in an untenable situation of either accepting this abomination of a deal or having to defend itself totally alone. Not only has Bush negotiated with terrorists, he has given them respectability. I cannot think of a more terrible situation.

Lebanon is the country to be dealing with, not a terror cell that operates within it’s borders. If Lebanon cannot control the splinter group, than Lebanon is to blame.

And that’s what Israel thought. That’s why Israel invaded Lebanon.

What makes this so especially bad is George Bush USED TO BE the best friend Israel had. Now, he’s caved to world opinion and screwed one of our best friends and ONLY functioning democracy in the Mid-East.

Look, we should do several things. First and foremost, pull the U.S. out of the U.N and kick them out of New York. Sell the building to a corporation that actually does some good in the world, like Halliburton. Then, ship all sorts of arms to Israel and let them unleash the dogs of Hell at the same time protecting Israel from the now-homeless United Nations with military might if need be.

I still support my President, he is mostly a very good man. I haven’t liked the wonton spending he has done, but he never pretended he didn’t feel government could fix people’s problems. He is still a HUGE defender of life, especially the unborn and I like what he has done in Afghanistan and Iraq, but I fear he’s gone wobbly now.
And of course, even with this disaster, he so much better than a President Gore or a President Kerry. But still, I think I’ve turned a corner.
