More Pentagon Bitches!!

This is how this country chooses to represent itself while in a foreign country. It comes as no shock to me. If you're shocked, clearly you haven't been paying attention.

‘I hate all Iranians,’said senior Pentagon official Debra Cagan to a group of British MPs. “The six MPs were taken aback by the hardline approach of the Pentagon and in particular Ms Cagan, one of Mr Bush’s foreign policy advisers.” Cagan “also accused Britain of ‘dismantling’ the Anglo-US-led coalition in Iraq by pulling troops out of Basra too soon.”


The Daily Mail has a longer article on the story.

I hate all Iranians, US aide tells MPs

Britsh MPs visiting the Pentagon to discuss America's stance on Iran and Iraq were shocked to be told by one of President Bush's senior women officials: "I hate all Iranians."

And she also accused Britain of "dismantling" the Anglo-US-led coalition in Iraq by pulling troops out of Basra too soon.

The all-party group of MPs say Debra Cagan, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Coalition Affairs to Defence Secretary Robert Gates, made the comments this month.




The six MPs were taken aback by the hardline approach of the Pentagon and in particular Ms Cagan, one of Mr Bush's foreign policy advisers.

She made it clear that although the US had no plans to attack Iran, it did not rule out doing so if the Iranians ignored warnings not to develop a nuclear bomb.

It was her tone when they met her on September 11 that shocked them most.

The MPs say that at one point she said: "In any case, I hate all Iranians."

Although it was an aside, it was not out of keeping with her general demeanour.

"She seemed more keen on saying she didn't like Iranians than that the US had no plans to attack Iran," said one MP. "She did say there were no plans for an attack but the tone did not fit the words."

Another MP said: "I formed the impression that some in America are looking for an excuse to attack Iran. It was very alarming."

Tory Stuart Graham, who was on the ten-day trip, would not discuss Ms Cagan but said: "It was very sobering to hear from the horse's mouth how the US sees the situation."

Ms Cagan, whose job involves keeping the coalition in Iraq together, also criticised Britain for pulling out troops.

"She said if we leave the south of Iraq, the Iranians will take it over," said one MP.

Another said: "She is very forceful and some of my colleagues were intimidated by her muscular style."

The MPs also saw Henry Worcester, Deputy Director of the Office of Iranian Affairs, who said he favoured talks with Iran.

The Pentagon denied Ms Cagan said she "hated" Iranians.

"She doesn't speak that way," said an official.

But when The Mail on Sunday spoke to four of the six MPs, three confirmed privately that she made the remark and one declined to comment. The other two could not be contacted.

I'm sure the feeling is mutual Ms. Cagan. I'm sure that the Iranian people hate you too!! If you asked every person in the world (excluding the United States) if they hated the United States, the answer would be no. They don't hate the United States or its people. They hate the government, and people like Ms. Cagan. She's a bitch who doesn't know when to shut her mouth!! That's what they hate. They hate this government because they treat other countries and their people like the shit on the bottom of their shoes.

Oh, she doesn't speak that way? Really? Is the Pentagon prepared to go on record as having called at least three MPs liars? Is the Pentagon prepared to prove that she didn't say what she REALLY DID SAY?

She said it!! She deserves to be fired. But she won't. In fact, I'm waiting for her promotion to a higher position. You know, the Pentagon likes to reward people for this kind of shit. Does anyone want to place bets on what position she'll be offered? Perhaps she'll be the bitch in charge of the "We're Not Bombing Iran But We're Really Bombing Iran" campaign. She'll no doubt be sent out to win the "hearts and minds" of the American people. She'll tell us that murdering innocent Iranians is a good thing. Then she'll be sent over to the Middle East to win the "hearts and minds" of those who think bombing Iran is an illegal, immoral thing to do.

Think I'm joking? Mark my words!!
