Is W the reason or just other basic human needs?

 

http://etfdailynews.com/blog/2011/02/27/food-inflation-is-alive-and-well-in-the-emerging-world-jjg-pot/

 

In Egypt, for example, inflation is trending well above 12% a year, largely due to food prices. As you recall, Egypt happens to be the world’s biggest wheat importer, and has had to pay ever-higher prices to feed its people.

 

Your argument raises the spectre of another person to thank/blame for the situation in Egypt, Libya, etc...

The Ben Bernank

 

There is not enough inflation (other than food and fuel). After The Ben Bernank implemented the Quantative Easing II, food prices (which do not affect inflation) went up around the world.

You know in that other thread, where I said Dev/Null is a part of the reason the liberals have run away from this board with their asses on fire?

 

Well, here's a decent example as to why. :P

At the risk of most likely being unemployed if there wasn't a bailout, perhaps the better solution would have been to let nature take its course rather than intervening?

 

The market is jittery and rightly so.

From the duplicate thread:

 

The uprisings are people revolting against corrupt government--not because they want freedom--although that could be the end result. Afghanistan, which isn't really a country, doesn't provide any model for them. Iraq may but there, the people were scared to death to ever do what they did in these other countries.

 

BTW, I like how this credit to Bush is being floated now. Obviously the Republican defenders are making a media push on this. It's easy to turn around though. "Don't you think that Iraqis would have seen what happened in Egypt and thrown out Saddam, saving us 4,000+ lives and a trillion or so dollars?"

Yeap.

 

And it's ironic how everyone acknowledges special interest groups/lobbyists have way too much influence in Washington shaping policy.

 

Yet when it comes to a war of choice, many of those same people don't acknowledge the slightest bit of that same influence. That it was purely to defend America and had nothing to do with the defense and energy lobbies, and "allies" Israel and Saudi Arabia picking which one of their enemies they wanted mideast pawn US to attack next, would be laughable if it weren't so tragic.

It seems like the Iraqis have embraced the government, at least partially, though. Violence is way down, and they've had what, three elections now?

partially? what part? seems like you might have been impromptu in exuberantly starting this thread.

W and the entire W apologist crowd were 100% for KEEPING MUBARAK, with FEAR FEAR FEAR about Muslim Brotherhood. Reason = Israel preferred Mubarak.

 

 

Iran's "Islamic democracy" produced a two term moderate, Rafsanjani, an Ahmadinejad opponent, in 2001 that was arming and funding THE NORTHERN ALLIANCE (TNA) in Afghan, which, unlike W, was actually trying to kill Osama, Al Qaeda, and Taliban. When W flipped off Iran with "axis of evil," he flipped off TNA too, and W's betrayal of Rafsanjani, along with endless Iranian media coverage of Iraqi Sunnis blowing up Iraqi Shia mosques with the US telling the Shias they cannot arm themselves to stop it, that is the only reason why Ahmadinejad won in 2005 in a runoff.

 

Iraq may be a tribal bean count "demockeracy" today, but Iran no longer is any form of "democracy" thanks to W's multiple counts of treason.

 

The net effect of W's treason, other than keeping "not a priority" Osama alive because Israel didn't want TNA to take Afghan from Taliban, is that toothless Saddam and moderate Rafsanjani, actually trying on 911 to kill those behind 911, were replaced by Ahmadinejad, and the Shia beancount winner in Iraq who goes right to Tehran and kisses Ahmad's butt...

"TEHRAN, Iran (CNN) -- Iraq's Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki on Sunday tried to allay Iranian fears over a planned U.S.-Iraq security pact, saying his government would not allow Iraq to become a launching pad for an attack on its neighbor.

"Iraq today doesn't present any threat as it used to be in the times of the former regime," al-Maliki told Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad during a Sunday meeting between two leaders, according to a statement from the prime minister's office.

 

"Today's Iraq is a constitutional state based on the rule of law, and it seeks to develop its relations with the regional countries based on cooperation and mutual respect," al-Maliki said.

 

Earlier, Iran's state-run news agency IRNA quoted the Iraqi leader as saying that "Baghdad would not allow its soil to be used as a base to damage the security of the neighboring countries, including Iran.""

 

 

 

 

So there you have it. We are out about 2 trillion, Osama and Al Qaeda are still alive and murdering innocents, and Saddam and Rafsanjani have been replaced with Al Maleki and Ahmadinejad.

 

 

In 2009, with W out of power, the Iranian people voted against Ahmadinejad, but it was too late, because The Decider had wrecked Iran...

 

 

Those who credit George W Bush for anything passionately hate the United States. W did more harm to the US than his 42 predecessors summed together. W took over a superpower with a surplus and a strong economy, violated every tenet of fiscal conservatism by outporking, outsocialzing and outspending Jimmy Catta with a Dem Congress, returning trillion dollar deficit and depression. He made those behind 911 "not a priority" because doing the US national interest got his father defeated in 1992, while

Now, tell us what you think of Obama.

Obama is the natural reaction of a scared American public to 8 years of W's Bible Thumping Socialism and TREASON = a left wing big spending Dem.

 

 

But at least Obama is trying to kill Osama, Al Qaeda, and Taliban, something W never did because the ISRAEL LOBBY didn't want him to...

 

 

explained fully here...

It is curious, how the "conservative" W supporters try to defend W and his porkfest by comparing him to someone they must also consider "conservative" = Obama.
