WASHINGTON - Adm. William Fallon is stepping down as head of the U.S. Central Command, which oversees military matters in the Middle East, Defense Secretary Robert Gates announced Tuesday.Eat shit and die, Gates, you fucking weirdo. I was busily hammering away at 118 people, part two, believe it or not, when I got this news item, which is The Worst Thing That Could Happen, so I thought I'd take a minute to shout shenanigans.
Gates said that Adm. William J. Fallon had asked for permission to retire and that Gates agreed. Gates said the decision, effective March 31, was entirely Fallon’s and that Gates believed it was "the right thing to do."
There is only one clear message here: Bush and Cheney will do whatever it takes to kill us all. The neocon agenda won't be denied, and to hell with the whole damn world. No one gives their permission to exterminate the human race in order to rebuild it into some magical, storybook GOP totalitarian monarchy. There are idiots in the world who actually think that will happen, and full speed ahead. Nobody explains how they'll do that without people. I assume it's a secret.
Recently I saw a program on the History Channel which said a meteor strike on one of today's major cities would be enough to cause a worldwide extinction-level event. The planned attack on Iran will launch much more dust into the atmosphere than that, and it will be radioactive dust. Admiral Fallon was an important firewall between that and the Bush administration, and as CENTCOM commander was the single best friend of life on earth. Now the plan is for a third Bush-Cheney administration, if we live that long, and also for the rest of us to kiss our asses goodbye. Esquire on Fallon.
