The Five Morons

Paul Craig Roberts has a great article, "We Have Nothing to Fear But Bush Himself ", on the Iraq/Middle East situation. He talks about the need for this regime to listen to and become more reality-based.

"If our aim is to win against terrorism, we can't afford more instability in the area," warned the king (of Jordan) prior to the ill-fated US invasion of Iraq. "It's the potential Armageddon of Iraq that worries all of us."

Roberts has a new name for this regime. one that will stick:

"Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Rice, Cheney and Bush blame Syria and Iran for the troubles that they brought upon themselves. The Iraqi insurgency, say the Five Morons, is the fault of Syria and Iran."

The Five Morons - how fitting.
