Condy Rice huffs and puffs at Israeli settlements in Palestine

US secretary of state Condy Rice deserves the Pinochio prize for telling tales. She's very angry at Olmert's Kadmina-led Israeli government for extending illegal Israeli settlements in what the world knows as Palestine or Palestine territories. Her current display of high dudgeon won't fool anyone, the more especially she as running dog for Herr Bush has steadfastly backed Israel up and down the line on whatever policy that it pursued. Take Olmert's dumb war against Hezbullah which Israel lost big time, and which did much to tarnish its reputation as the bully on the Mideast block. Mme Rice took her good time to utter any condemnation nor used her influence to restain her Israeli client. Yep, Israel is the US' client; Washington generously doles out billions in US tax dollars for economic and military support, and then with a generous sponge erases that debt, whilst it penny pinches its own needs and the needs of its own citizenry. This imbalance has gone way off kilter especially during Herr Bush watch at the White House. Condy Rice is a femme de paille, and should be roundly criticised for her complete obedience not to her country but to the blockhead who is president of the US. It should also be noted that she and Colin Powell and Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld among others sat around a table in the White House trying to figure out torture techniques which become common coin of the realm in Abu Gharib, Bagram, and Guantanamo. For this she and Herr Bush and that loathesome Dick Cheney and the stupid Donald Rumsfeld deserve to brought before an international tribunal for crimes of war. Here recent anger at Israel to get back to the topic, is a display of frustration that under her tenure at Foggy Bottom, she has proven unable to come up with a plus for Herr Bush in a long series of foreign policy failures. Israel will continue to do as it pleases; Herr Bush has abdicated any power to restrain the Israeli pitbull.
