Naming a war before it is fought is obscene

Thanks To Some 'REAL' National Heroes | BaltimoreChronicle.com:
Naming a war before it is fought is obscene, but it's also proof that the 'war' was pre-planned. The Bush thugs named this war 'Infinite Justice,' and even had commercial merchandise made up with that name on it. I bought some as proof--pins and buttons and uniform decorations for the military. Then, realizing their religious blunder, the war-criminals planning this massacre re-named their corporate raid 'Operation Iraqi Freedom.'

Freedom, my ass. Only in Orwellian terms has anyone been freed in this disaster. 'Operation Iraqi Destruction and Construction' would have been more like it. Corporate warfare. May the Islamic world forgive us.

'Iraqi Freedom'? The Iraqi people reported yesterday that there are 37,000 Iraqis now 'free' since we started dropping the bombs on March 19th, 2003--'liberated to death' by our President and his puppet masters, with their neocon dreams of (perceived) power and world domination. And almost 1000 of our own friends, children, sisters, brothers, husbands, and wives have tasted 'Iraqi Freedom.' These 'freed' people are the ultimate heroes."

"Thank you to the soldiers in the field, who from the beginning realized that they were on 'Mission Impossible,' not 'Operation Infinite Justice,' as the Bush war-planners had named their 'corporate war.' You deserve much, much, better than to be forced to stay in the military against your wishes, as thousands of you are right now. Continue to speak out. Who can doubt the words of those who are there?
