A Fraudulent War? Email Print

Joseph Wilson in his ABC interview with George Stephanopoulos on April 9 had this to say to George Bush regarding the White House leak of his wife's name, placing her in danger, "The White House should come clean on this matter."  He continued, "My own view is that the White House owes the American people and particularly our service people who have been sent into war an apology for having misrepresented the facts."

But in reading the Seattle Times on March 29 we can understand why Bush found Joseph Wilson's research something to suppress!  Four months before the State of the Union Address the White House and the U.S. Senate were informed there was nothing to the fear propaganda that Iraq was seeking yellow cake uranium in Niger.  

Intelligence was being twisted in George Bush's rush into the Iraq War.  In the March 29, 2006 Seattle Times it was revealed, "A confidential memo recording a January 31, 2003 oval office meeting between President Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair makes it clear that the two men were going to war in any event."

British author Philippe Sands mentions this memo in his newly released book, Lawless World.  The Seattle Times article states further, "According to the memo written by Blair's chief foreign policy adviser David Manning, Bush was determined to invade Iraq without explicit U.N. sanctions even if inspectors failed to find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq."

Beware the "Different Impressions" Meme... Email Print

This morning I heard a man call in to my local AM radio station, and he had an interesting but dangerous argument.

What this man said was that he "believed that this whole Wilson story was just a matter of different impressions".

read on..

He explained by saying that Wilson had one impression of the story, and that the Bush Administration had another impression. He also went on to say that it was wrong of Wilson to write his story on the Niger incident because he had "no knowledge" of whether or not the Niger information was true or not, since 'nobody' knew definitively!

Please, this was no misunderstanding, this was not a 'mixed signals' issue. This Administration knew  damn well what they were doing, and it is why they are fighting so hard to keep it covered up. The truth needs to come out at every turn, and obfuscating the main issues with so much smoke up everyone's ass is just not acceptable. This needs a solid refutation.

Don't let this pathetic argument circulate in the mainstream without answer!
