I happened to pick up on Rumsfeld's stashing a document away from casual perusal; not to mention Cheney's explanation of why Bush Sr. didn't invade Iraq. That and the PNAC meshed into a projection which was consistant with what Bush was doing when everything told the public wasn't. Guess which seemed more plausible.<BR/>http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/NSAEBB/NSAEBB207/index.htm<BR/>Oh, yes. There is quite a list of nations in oil-bearing regions having problems with security. Given the fact that it's an open secret what the CIA is doing in Iran, is it such a leap to checking out what might be happening elsewhere ?<BR/>http://www.globalresearch.ca/ is a stunning compendium of military analyses.<BR/>I keep my "Links" page as a resource to get one started on the hunt for alternate sources of news. The Delic.io.us file is a sometimes amazing tool, so much that I posted some links under 'Education' devoted to the best use of the resource.opithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01621946866211400380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36797291.post-2296191385158616282008-07-12T11:01:00.000-04:002008-07-12T11:01:00.000-04:00hi, Mary Ellen--yep-- the great uninformed will be...hi, Mary Ellen--<BR/>yep-- the great uninformed will be with us always.<BR/>some things never change. :(<BR/>xxx<BR/>hey, dguzman--<BR/>I figure BushCo will get us there without any help from Israel.<BR/>I keep hearing the war-drums beating.<BR/>:(two crowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14289442473441279230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36797291.post-45914027815949521232008-07-11T15:19:00.000-04:002008-07-11T15:19:00.000-04:00I too fear that we'll end up in Iran via Israel.

Imagine--with Iran, Iraq, and Afghanistan, we'd be fucked on three different fronts! Worst. President.

A friend, not some stupid, lunatic fringe person...</I>, I was afraid you were talking about me. Then I continued reading, <I>I was amazed yesterday. A friend, not some stupid, lunatic fringe person </I>, and I realized I was off the hook. Phew! :-D<BR/><BR/>Yup, they're still out there...the misinformed, not the WMD. <BR/><BR/>Yup, Iran, here we come! I truly believe we will be at war with Iran before Bush leaves office. What has he got to lose? He already knows that he is the most unpopular President and dubbed the worst President in the history of our country...why not add to his resume? <BR/><BR/>God help us, we're screwed. :-(Mary Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07835150057881066641noreply@blogger.com
