Bush: The Most Defamed President Of US History
Bush (II): The Most Defamed President Of US History
By Tanveer Jafri
The self declared war against terrorism by American President George W Bush (II) is going on. Whether Bush has been able to be near the greatest terrorist leader Osama Bin Laden or not but as a result of this self declared war against terrorism, Saddam Hussain has been dethroned from the Iraq throne. The fundamentalist talibani men that were uprooted by the army of Bush, now it is being noticed that they are recognizing themselves. Now on one side, Afghanistan & Iraq are standing as a challenge for America & on the other side, the misguiding & wrong double policies in America are day by day increasing opposition for George Bush. As before the American attack on Iraq, the peace loving American public was demonstrating in all the big cities of America showing strong protest against war. Now, those protests have started again. American public doubts that George Bush who seems a raw, unable thinks like a trader & inefficient person may take the support of lies & like Iraq mayn’t commit a mistake of attacking Iran.
The peace loving & humanitarian public of America, while opposing George Bush, & on the falling graph of popularity of Bush, it becomes a common talk, & a question arises, if people weren’t happy over the policies of George Bush, why was he elected as a president for the second time? Now this question is being answered by the public themselves instead of the critics of George Bush. A few days back, in an historical & great demonstration organized in New York, American public in its speeches, banners & posters expressed its feelings. These feelings weren’t only astonishing but were sufficient to convey the message that to an extent the policies of Bush were being opposed in the world, far more than that American public had anger against Bush. American demonstrators were saying that- ‘51% is not a mandate’, ‘Bush voters sorry yet’, ‘He is still not my president’, ‘Bush voters: feel safer?’, ‘Don’t blame me. I voted for Cary’, ‘it was a blunder to re-elect Bush’, ‘the guilty has reborn’ etc. Not only this, the persons who took part in protest demonstrations used the words for Bush, certainly any other president in American history hasn’t been addressed with such foul words. The demonstrators were telling George Bush as anti-Christian. They said that he is the man who divides & not unites. ‘This man with different nature will destroy America.’ ‘His every incident is linked with a crime.’ ‘Such a man has taken birth in America for the first time.’ ‘Attack senses of Bush.’ ‘When he will go to the god of war (Mars), only then there will be peace on earth.’ ‘Throw pro-Bush people in the sea.’ All his works depend on lies.’ ‘There is a danger behind the Bushes.’ ‘The democracy is dying behind the closed doors.’ ‘First of all bring democracy in America & then anywhere else.’ ‘Bush is intoxicated by power.’ ‘This ruler has nothing likes senses.’ ‘Stop this war against terrorism.’ ‘Unnecessary war is the greatest offence.’ ‘We trust god but not Bush.’ ‘Bush & Osama directed by God.’ ‘Who will answer Jesus?’ ‘Jesus was liberal, Jesus embraced love not war.’ ‘War is a problem not solution.’ ‘Torture is a problem not solution.’ ‘Bush administration has no policy, no direction.’ ‘Torture is the other war.’ ‘Where are the weapons of mass destruction?’ ‘George Bush is the greatest sorrow of America.’ ‘The worst president of America is George Bush.’ Etc.
Extremeness of anger among America public can be well imagined from the above slogans & speeches by anti-Bush demonstrators. The demonstrators don’t seem to be in a mood to wait for his term period up to 2008. They were saying if 2008 has come now. These demonstrators had full sympathy with the America army that is deployed in Iraq war. But not because of commercial thoughts of Bush but on the condition of American favours. These demonstrators were shouting to call back their youths. ‘The only reason of death of innocent American soldiers is the lie being told by Bush.’ ‘Our army is being sent in the jaws of death only for a lie.’ ‘Send Bush in prison he is a guilty of war.’ ‘Iraq means second Vietnam.’ ‘What is price of a gallon of oil in terms of American soldiers?’ ‘Bush is misguiding the world.’ ‘Where are our national security guards?’
These were the persons who favoured environment, human rights & world peace. A large number of them were old persons, ladies & children. To show their protest, most of them were in black clothes. They were worried because of the America’s insult in the world. In their opinion it was because of George Bush who was unfarsighted & linking trade with rule & spreading terrorism in the name of war against terrorism. They were clearly expressing the policies of love, harmony & liberalization of Jesus saying that Christianity means love, goodwill, unity & embracing others. It is not good to kill the innocents just for economic & commercial selfishness taking the path of lie, cunningness & playing tricks on others. They were giving reference to this part of holy Bible- “You are crying, in trouble, because you have selected such a king.” Samuel 8:18.
To thrust war upon Iraq & now having a greedy eye on Iran, George Bush & his allies were being called as a group of greedy people who wanted to have oil. On the day of this huge demonstration, the American public had a list issued by pentagon of 2467 American soldiers, who lost their lives in Iraq war. These demonstrators had bearing mark 2467, wrapped in American flag, in the memory of American soldiers. The pictures of all these soldiers were being demonstrated. The relatives of 2467 soldiers took part in this demonstration & revealed the false & misguiding policies of George Bush. The kith & kin of soldiers who were at present deployed in Iraq war also took part in this demonstration & demanded an immediate return of the soldiers who were away from their homes just because of a war based on false reasons.
Such type of demonstrations were successful in giving a message to the world that Bush is not being opposed outside America but there are people in America who oppose him. These demonstrations also prove that as a true Mohammedan can’t be a terrorist, similarly true Christianity doesn’t allow Massacre of innocent aged people, Women & children just for selfish ends. These humanitarian demonstrators were clear in giving the message that a true Christian can’t teach their children to kill the innocents. ‘What type of this military teaching is that inspires for massacre & to become a terrorist?’ Christianity doesn’t allow to go on using sword & to forget love, harmony & brotherhood. They said that today we need to teach the American youths that lesson of Jesus that teaches love & sacrifice like that of Jesus. These demonstrators wanted to know if George Bush can be called Christian who works against that teaching of Jesus. This anti-Bush demonstration proved that if there had been a bad, unsuccessful & unable president of America in American history that is George W. Bush (Second).
