Titolo: God bless America? God save America? Or God forgive America?

BY ANDREW GREELEY
The disasters that have afflicted American foreign policy in the last weeks
should raise once again the question raised during the campaign three years
ago: Is George W. Bush intelligent enough to be president of the United
States? By a margin of a half million votes, the American people decided he
was not. By a margin of one vote, the U.S. Supreme Court decided that he
was.
The Wall Street Journal last week in an article about the Korean mess
(written by three journalists) argued that the two sides are talking past
one another. The key theme was that the North Korean government is
frightened by the U.S. administration.
The fears, as it seems to them, are based on four events: the suspension of
discussion during the first year of the Bush administration (while the
president reviewed the Clinton administration's policy, just as he reviewed
the terrorism policy till just before the World Trade Center attack); his
gratuitous "axis of evil" category that included North Korea; his refusal to
approve direct negotiations with North Korea, and finally, the warning of a
possible "surgical strike" to take out North Korea's nuclear plants.
The "axis of evil" remark may have done it all by itself. You lump a country
with Iraq, what else do you expect that country to do except get ready to
fight?
Now we are entering a war that most countries in the world--as well as most
people--oppose. You lose almost all your allies, including perhaps Mexico
and Canada. You cannot make a $20 billion bribe stick with the Turks (the
world's most bribable people). You preside over the probable destruction of
NATO and the Security Council by your rhetoric. Finally, you swagger into a
news conference and you talk about putting your hand on the Bible and
swearing to protect the people of the United States. Saddam Hussein is a
virtual ally of al-Qaida and is a direct threat to the American people, whom
you've sworn to defend. Never mind that neither of these presumptions have
been proved.
And all of this while the market and the economy tank because of war fear.
The New York Times quotes presidential staffers as saying that the president
sees the world as a "biblical struggle of good vs. evil." The name of that
is fanaticism.
The father built up coalitions. The son destroys them. It takes a lot of
effort to destroy in less than a year coalitions that previous presidents
spent a half century and more putting together. This is not a very smart
man, but one who is surrounded by very smart people who have managed by
their arrogance in a couple of years to drive off almost all of our friends
and allies and lead us into a foolish and frivolous war.
Suppose that all goes well and the war is won in a couple of weeks. Suppose
that the people of Iraq do eagerly welcome their American liberators.
Suppose even that some weapons of mass destruction are found and destroyed.
It would still have been a bad war, a war fought out of fear and rage with
disregard for the simple principles of morality. Many men and women on both
sides will be dead because of Bush's personal conviction of his own moral
goodness. It is all justified in the name of ''freedom,'' which seems to
mean that the United States is free to do just about anything it wants.
I make no case for the 12-year failure of the Security Council or the verbal
gyrations of Hans Blix. Yet the only reason for starting the war now seems
to be that our troops are in place and that the president has grown
impatient with Saddam.
Are these sufficient reasons for the death and destruction, the broken
bodies and the broken hearts that our pious, if not all that smart,
president and his team of chicken-hawks are about to cause?
I don't think so.
If this country was truly the great country it pretends to be and indeed has
on occasion been, it would be great enough to show some self-restraint
before it began to drop its bombs.
God bless America? God save America? Or God forgive America?

 Comunque rodere resta molto brutto
proprio non capisco cosa ci sìa da rodere....
del fatto che finora ne son morti troppo pochi?
A parte il fatto che UN uomo morto è già troppo per qualsiasi causa,
s'è rotto un equilibrio, si son perse delle coalizioni, si sono infranti
dei prìncipi comuni, s'è creato un precedente, ecc. ecc. e ti sembra
motivo per gioire?

 Comunque rodere resta molto brutto
ragion per cui, smettila di farlo.
E torna alle tue usate abitudini.

Uomini muoiono tutti i giorni anche senza guerra.
Solo in Italia muoiono 1.500 persone all'anno per incidenti sul lavoro.
E tutti se ne fregano.
Gli equilibri si riformano, i principi comuni esistono solo nelle favole, il
precedente è stato creato quando il primo ominide ha mollato la prima
clavata sul cranio di un suo simile per fregargli una preda.
Magari qualcuno ha capito che Dio, o chi per lui, non è in casa, avrà da
fare fuori, per il momento lasciare un messaggio sulla segreteria
telefonica.
Io non ho gioito affatto, sono altri che rodono o gioiscono (per il
momento....), io illusioni sulla natura umana non me ne faccio.
Ne su quella degli americani ne su quella degli iracheni e neppure su quella
dei pacifisti

E torna alle tue usate abitudini.
Questo qui è solo il solito trollettino che tenta di farsi (o rifarsi)
il terreno aspettando che qualcuno gli risponda. Visto che come "Lupo
Lucano" nessuno lo ha cacato manco di striscio, ora siamo al "primo
riciclaggio" come "Lahaine" ("L'Odio", in francese). E noi, che
riserviamo l'odio a cose un po' più serie (troll compresi),
continueremo allegramente a non cacarlo.
Olé, fossa biologica in azione.

Ti sembra un tentativo di trollaggio?
Allora manco sai cosa è un troll.
E se mi hai plonkato meglio, le tue risposte sono decisamente monotone
