Gardiner tells what we really are doing in Iran |
|
http://digbysblog.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_digbysblog_archive.html#114504674614060703-snip- Gardiner speaking: The secretary point is, the Iranians have been saying American military troops are in there, have been saying it for almost a year. I was in Berlin two weeks ago, sat next to the ambassador, the Iranian ambassador to the IAEA. And I said, "Hey, I hear you're accusing Americans of being in there operating with some of the units that have shot up revolution guard units."
He said, quite frankly, "Yes, we know they are. We've captured some of the units, and they've confessed to working with the Americans."

1. Has bush started a secret war without any Congressional oversight? |
|
"I really think it's possible that Bush and Rummy have already got a secret war going on, one that has not been revealed to congress in any form. It's designed that way. Bush is not going to fire Rummy --- he can't. He's already committed himself to this thing. This could be the ultimate action of the unitary executive."

He conducted a secret war on Iran, too, mainly through piracy, attacking Iranian shipping and Iranian oil platforms. Most Americans never heard a word about it from that day to this.

2. They haven't caught any Americans -- yet. That is an important |
|
distinction. They may have used torture to get the "confessions." Remember, the Iranians are as dishonest as the Bushies. Neither side is going to tell the truth in this confrontation.
