Cass Dillon and Billy Joel perform, “Christmas in Fallujah.”
The Guernica of our time may not have ever happened if the Bush administration had remained focused on al Qaeda and bin Laden instead. How many Iraqis have been slaughtered: We don’t keep count. But perhaps one million have died according to estimates. How many millions more have been rendered homeless. How many US troops must die, or lose their limbs and their minds.
Meanwhile, in his weekly radio address Bush said, “America is blessed to have men and women willing to step forward to defend our freedoms and keep us safe from our enemies. We are thankful for their courage and their dedication to duty. We pray for their safety. And we wish them a Merry Christmas, wherever they serve.”
As Keith Olbermann would say, it’s been 1,700 days since Bush’s “mission accomplished” speech May 1, 2003.
