The cabal of war provovateurs Zionist Jews comprised of Feith, Wolfowitz, Ledeen, Kristol, Abrams, Perle, Hanson, Pipes, Libby, Wurmser, etc. would make for a great spy/treason movie as to how these Israeli Likud Party/Mossad agents infiltrated the State Dept and Pentagon, twisted and manufactured WMD lies and was able to sell their scheme through war propaganda.

It was a well known fact that Bush and Cheney pushed the intelligence...they wanted to hear certain things that would advance their call for the Iraq incursion. They prodded and pressed the intelligence agencies, making it clear that they wanted to hear there were WMD's in Iraq. And what was obvious to everyone who cares to remember was the outright refusal by the Bush Administration to give the U.N. the time it needed to do its job in searching for WMD's in Iraq. In the midst of the U.N. process, Bush calls for the invasion in all due haste! Our leader did not want to hear that there were no WMD's...to hell with intelligence and facts!

You may have noticed the coming surge of American public opinion against using our military to promote the agenda of other Countries! American people are learning it is ok to disagree with a President who is friends of Saudi Arabia and who gives them special treatment on the world stage at the expense of American lives. For years no one would say anything against promoting the Israeli agenda for fear of being labeled an anti-Semitist but now America is learning it is also acceptable to disagree with Israeli promoters like AIPAC members, Joe Lieberman of Connecticut and William Kristol of the Weekly Standard who would gladly sell thousands of American soldiers lives to promote Israeli interest! Now these same policies and neocons are pushing our soldiers toward another war in Iran. American military is made to protect American interest not fight proxy wars in the interest of other countries! American blood and treasure should be spent only in American interest! The Current Vice President of the United States felt the need to jump on a plane on a moments notice and fly to Saudi Arabia at the beckon call of the house of Saudi. He showed the world by his actions who his true masters were! As for the Rest of us Americans, The Statue of Liberty Stands in New York Harbor and is not Kneeling in the desert of the Middle East!

Right-wing *** here. The intellegence was doctored to fit the objective of going to war. RE: The Downing Street Memo.

Bush, Cheney, and company cannot leave fast enough, in my opinion.

Moot point. The Bush adminsitration manipulated intelligence and acted on and parlayed it inappropriately. Everyone now realizes Mr. Bush and Mr. Cheyney have been the biggest offenders to use the information for their own political agenda.

Fact is they lied and lied and lied. It is Mr. Bush and Mr. Cheyney who have tainted the intelligence gathering process and its end result or lack thereof.

What is MOST offensive though is they have used their "I'm superior" mentality to kill over 3,000 American's in a War THEY put together on faulty intel. They killed these American's as sure as it they had put a gun to their heads and we do nothing. What Cheney and his lap dog Bush did deserves the Death Sentence.

"The continued abuse of intelligence for partisan political purposes might make it easier to win re-election, but it makes our ability to fight and win wars drastically more difficult."
