It was all the CIA's fault. They forced Bush into a war he never wanted.

[TruthIsAll]

The CIA gave them bad intel to avenge their daddy - former CIA director George Bush, Sr.

The CIA gave them bad intel because they wanted to impress those PNAC neocons Wolfowitz, Perle, Cheney and Rumsfeld, who came over to Langley from the WH and Pentagon.

The CIA gave them bad intel because they knew Bush yearned to be a great War hero, like Churchill. And there was only one way to do it - by fooling him into thinking there was all that WMD.

The CIA gave them bad intel because they wanted the oil for all those rich Bush oil and military cronies at Carlyle and for Cheney's clean-up crew at Halliburton.

The CIA gave them bad intel to force Bush to go to war against his better nature.

The CIA gave them bad intel on the Niger yellow-cake uranium. That's why Cheney sent Wilson over to check it out. When Wilson came back and said "Whoa, its a forgery", Cheney wanted to believe him, but he was overruled by CIA. Cheney never wanted to go to war.

The CIA wanted to go to war because Clinton never let them.

3. I agree

We give the CIA how many $billions every year to find conspiracies. Much more than was appropriated to repair the damage inflicted by 9/11. (an aside: Wyoming is getting much more per capita than New York City is for Homeland Security.)

:mad:

I think there is a VRWC. It's been going on since the 80's. Blame everything on the "L" word. It must stop. We need to emphasize that the "L"s believe in the future and a positive view of the future. We don't wont to straddle our grandchildren with the debts of wars of lies.



I was in the World Financial Center on 9/11. Fortunately my trains were actually on time that morning or I would have been in the WTC plaza at that time.

We all need to continue to point out the lies of this administration.

5. The special operations unit was installed at the Pentagon in 2000.

It had no chain of command over it in the Pentagon except through Rumsfeld and Cheney and from Cheney to the CIA.

This is very basic yet crucial information for those who wish to know the ugly truth. I do not encourage everyone to "go there" but it is there none the less.

7. The CIA, Bush, and the Pentagon...colletively and independently

have done more harm to this country than all the terrorists, mafias and drug cartels combined.

8. In any crime, you establish motive

What F**king motive did Tenant have to go to war in Iraq. How about Bush and Cheney?

The Saudi flights. What F**king motive did clarke have to get the bin Laden family and the Saudi Royal Family out of the U.S. after 9/11. How about Bush and his Old Man?

Motives, my boy, look for the motives.

10. Iraq - 'buck stops with Blair'

The buck must stop with Prime Minister Tony Blair for intelligence failings on Iraq, a former top 'spook' said.

Dame Pauline Neville-Jones drew comparisons between Mr Blair and George Tenet, forced to quit as CIA chief over the errors.

There had been a "systematic failure" in assessing Saddam Hussein's weapons of mass destruction, Dame Pauline said.

And she said of Mr Blair: "The buck stops there and I don't think that the political layer in any country can escape the consequences of a systemic failure."

Mr Tenet was forced out of the CIA ahead of the damning US senate report on intelligence failings in the run-up to war.

Dame Pauline, who once headed the Joint Intelligence Committee bring together the UK's secret services, said: "The head of the CIA is a politically appointed job.

"So it's the equivalent of the Minister going."

Speaking to BBC World's Hardtalk she said: "He is making a distinction between what he genuinely believed and what turns out to be the case so he is at least open to the accusation of incompetence."

Dame Pauline went on to say: "I think there is a trust issue now. That's one of the reasons why it's important, first of all, the Prime Minister does acknowledge he actually got it wrong. Secondly that confidence is restored in the intelligence services."

14. CIA was infiltrated by pnac/bushco proponents...

who provided 'evidence' in support of the pnac/bush doctrine.

Others in the CIA don't like it, a counter coup is in progress.

Given that both the CIA and the pnac puppets are tools of the elite, i think this indicates a power strugle within the elite.
It seems there are two kinds of elite; those who want to be filthy rich in relative peace, and those who want to be filthy rich at any cost.

16. We should believe BushCo is sincere in cancelling the elections.

If they do it, it is to protect us.
