10月18日美國前國務卿鮑威爾84歲死於新冠病毒及血癌。
第二天川普就痛罵鮑威爾是個爛外交官,把美國帶進伊拉克戰爭。川普說看到無恥的媒體報導鮑威爾的死訊,真是高興又美妙,鮑威爾用一小瓶洗衣粉指控這是伊拉克的大規模殺傷武器。川普痛罵鮑威爾是登記的共和黨人卻最會攻擊共和黨人,他是內奸。最後川普說鮑威爾造成許多錯誤,希望他從此安息。(消息來源Military Times)
前國務卿鮑威爾(軍階四星上將)是很正直又是極少數受到尊敬的美國軍人及政客,只因為以小布希政府國務卿的身份,在安理會持一小瓶洗衣粉,向全世界指控這是伊拉克的大規模殺傷武器的證據,一世英名毀於一小瓶洗衣粉。
謊言揭穿以後,從此全世界提到他都會加上一段「那個用一小瓶洗衣粉發動侵略戰爭的鮑威爾」,英名全毀,從此落為無名的芻狗,也讓他懊悔一生,可見世間還算有公理。
但是真正發動戰爭的元兇大小布希,父子各發動一次伊拉克戰爭,卻無人指責,可能鮑威爾是黑人,容易拿來做替罪羔羊。
川普以惡毒的用詞痛罵鮑威爾,說明川普才是更低劣的政客。


消息來源Military Times: Trump bashes Powell for his role in Iraq War buildup
A day after the death of Colin Powell, former President Donald Trump attacked the one-time secretary of state as a fake Republican and an unreliable diplomat who helped lead America into the Iraq War.
“Wonderful to see Colin Powell, who made big mistakes on Iraq and famously, so-called weapons of mass destruction, be treated in death so beautifully by the fake news media,” Trump said in a statement released Tuesday.
Trump also bashed Powell, “a registered Republican, but always being the first to attack other Republicans."
He ended the comment with “[Powell] made plenty of mistakes, but anyway, may he rest in peace!”
