Cut and Paste? What does that have to do with anything?
I cut and paste and so do many posters as references and quotes to back up points or make points. The issue here is the phony Mideast "Summit" which has just been "downgraded" (I suppose we would call it) to a meeting.
It's an obvious sham and the world leaders know it's nothing but a photo-op to pressure Abbas into sign away Palestinian rights and land and get some kind of support statement to back up Bush's attack on Iran, since the UN inspectors can't seem to find any WMD again he needs something else.
They are trying desperately to somehow try to salvage something out of George Bush's Mideast disasters.
We are bogged down in a quagmire in Iraq, losing in Afghanistan, Lebanon is fracturing, the Palestinians have two governments, Musharaff declared martial law (again) and is floundering, the extremists are on the rise and the lawyers are leading the people in mass demonstrations, adding to the chaos.
Repression in Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Jordan grows as does hatred of the US around the world. Poland and Australia are the latest two "coalition of the willing" (stooges) to be pulling out of Iraq and Bush is rapidly becoming irrelevant in the region.
China and Russia's influence and importance in the region grows.
I also read it is to help Rice win back some sort of credibility after her disastrous support of Israelis bombing of Lebanese civilians and her "birth pangs of Mideast democracy" prediction.
Besides the whole affair being disgusting and an insult to the American people and the people of the region and world the US corporate media continues to act a hired PR firm for the Bush administration and acts like it's some kind of accomplishment while they lead the American people into another disaster.
