So, after making the rounds of the various Middle Eastern nations, Condi attended a world summit in Rome, hastily arranged to find a path to a ceasefire agreement.
Virtually the entire body was agreed on a cessation of hostilities.
With the exception of two holdouts.
The American Secretary of State refused to accept any ceasefire that would not be long term.
She got the British representative to go along with her.
Thus, because King George XLIII has dreams of a New World Order, where every land is filled with the glory of Jesus, the freedom of Bushocracy, and all vistas as well as urban neighborhoods have been renovated by bombardments, the fighting shall continue.
After all, one of the barriers to his holy goal is the existence of Hezbollah, so George is perfectly okay with allowing Israel to continue pounding away at this organization that exists for the sole purpose of engaging in genocidal annihilation.
But what about all the innocent victims who are being caught in the crossfire: The women, children, men, and elderly Lebanese, Palestinians and Jews who are being sacrificed and maimed while King George and Condoleezza play their deadly game?
Who will replace all the houses, apartments, schools and businesses that are being destroyed?
How will the people who are being given yet another reason to hate be taught not to detest Americans along with their immediate enemies?
When a world leader has the option and power to eliminate bloodshed even for a week, to give peace at least the slimmest chance, to provide those in the line of fire an opportunity to escape the carnage and desolation, yet purposely and callously refuses to agree with the rest of the nations on a cessation of hostilities because it does not suit his or her endgame, we're living on the knife-edge of tyranny.
Whom does that make the evildoers now?
"You cannot qualify war in harsher terms than I will. War is cruelty, and you cannot redefine it..." (Gen. William Tecumseh Sherman in a letter to the mayor and councilmen of Atlanta just prior to its burning, September 12, 1864)
Birth pangs would be a most welcome and pleasant improvement over the realities of war.
