Bush hard at work for weapons industry.

He will ask Congress to sell 30 million dollars worth of military related weapons this fall. In that package deal he is making on behalf of the military-industrial complex weapons will be shipped to Israel, Saudi Arabia, Eyqpt, Kuwait, and a few other locations in the middle east.
On the prediction that this will help bring peace in case Iran attacks everybody. eh?

But mostly to raise money for those companies that deal in trafficing weapons from America internationally.

We know that terrorist groups prepare in Saudi Arabia before migrating to other places like Afganistan and Irag. And that some of those nations have manipulated oil prices which harm the USA economy, but what the heck.... business is business... right?

Will Bush also get away with this agenda, and what else can he do to make things worse before the end of his term?

Here is a current news link.

You're very much underrating bush and the MIC. It's $20 BILLION over the next decade, not million, and that's just for Saudi and the Gulf states.

Israel will get $30 BILLION more, and Egypt an additional $13 billion.

The U.S. is the world's biggest death merchant.

Holy cow... looks like the middle east will be well stocked to continue wars and bloodshed for some time into the future. I wonder if this will cost us taxpayers anything?

If any of the Democartic canadates vote to apporve this in the fall they will not get my vote nor my support.

It certainly looks that way. And this is being done in our name, with our tax dollars.

It sure will.... you're lives, as it's doing right now. He sends the weapons over, blames those weapons on other countries for distributing them, and asks or drafts your citizens to go over and continue to be killed by them.....

I really want to move to Canada or Europe.

Amazing that we have so much hardware that we can afford to sell it to the Middle East yet we can't seem to have armor for our troops.


IT'S A BOY!!

We are giving them all those billons in weapons just because Iran is so powerful they could march right in and overtake Isreal and Saudi Arabia?

That is your tax money being handed over the private weapons dealers, for years into the future. And they make it sound like they are trying to "talk them into accepting all the aid in weapons"?

This is a big rip off of taxpayers, Bush, Rice, or Gates is going to get a kick back from the weapon manufacting industry or else it is a bid to get them to donate lots of money to the lagging Republic 'election budget'.

Something is happening that is not above board at all.

The Democrats must move to stop this pronto. Some gripe about the taxpaid cost of universal health care and here Bush is giving away all our budget to Arabs. This totally NUTS.

*Stands up, waving arms and eyes bulged, mouth open*

Haven't I been saying "How much more is he going to get away with before people do something?" ~ Yet here's another example of him screwing things up to how things used to be for his own agendas, and althought many more are becoming pissed about the details and such..... which is perfectly understandable..... what is being done?

Nothing.... the Democrats won't do anything, the Republicans will suck hole Bush as long as they can, and Bush in turn will suck hole all your taxes to his own personal agenda.... and he's got all the leeway he needs to do what he needs to do before he's "Honorably Discharged from his service as President of the US." due to an election.....

His ass should be thrown into court and then strung up like Saddam.... A bitter irony if you ask me.... one that many across the globe would love to see.

And no.... that's not a threat against the president, so don't bother to go send the SS *cough* Secret Service after me and bothering with extroditing me to the Motherland *cough* Homeland, where I can be sent to Syria and tourtured until I conform to his ideals.... it aint happening.

Ah, we're giving money to real the perpetrators of 9/11, while we bomb an already poor, shitty nation that hasn't done anything to attack us back into the stone age. Great move.
