Tim and Brice,

there is a another great article.
Seems the Bush-adminstration is withholding the information.
Could it be, that Mr. Clarke was telling the truth or a truth?
At least it is worrying for me, that the Bush adminstration keeps the
information to themself and release only the part, that they think you
should receive as "the truth".
Could it be, that they are hiding mistakes? I know, they have not made
any. ;-)

What's your opinion on that?

Michael -

I think Mr. Clarke wants to sell a book, he is willing to use THE
TRUTH to do that.  He is also willing to use A TRUTH to do that.
He is also willing to use OTHER THAN THE TRUTH to do that.  In fact
he is flexible enough to ANY PERMUTATION OF THE TRUTH to sell the
book.

What I am hearing is we should have use pre-emptive action in and
on Afghanistan to prevent 9-11, but it was a mistake to do this
very thing in Iraq.  No matter what we would have done, there would
have been armchair Generals to critique' whatever action we took
in between sips of beer.

Saddam Hussein was a bad guy and the world is a better place without
him loose.  The world is a better place without his psycopath sons
loose too.

I hope we can establish a stable and humane government in Iraq.  It
will be a hard job, and even harder with those who want to sabotage
the process to their own advantage.
