I though he was in the Marines?

That aside, in a round about way she does have a point. The people who sold this war to Bush are Neocons. Richard Perle, Paul Wolfowitz, Douglash Feith, David Frum, Bill Kristol and his gang at the Weekly Standard.

Perle, Wolfowitz, Frum and Feith are all out of the administration now. Feith's guy at the Pentagon Larry Franklin has been indicted for passing classified info to AIPAC along with two of its high ranking employees.

Besides Michele Malkin and Jerry Sepper at the Washington Times, no one has really covered this scandal. As much as I think we should give Israel moral and material support, its not the 51st state and I'm afraid many neocons think it is.

Maybe you missed these two statements from Cindy, right before you posted:

"We were told that we were attacked on 9/11 because the terrorists hate our freedoms and democracy...not for the real reason, becuase the Arab-Muslims who attacked us hate our middle-eastern foreign policy."

"You get America out of Iraq and Israel out of Palestine and you'll stop the terrorism," she exclaimed."

Do you agree that we were justifiably attacked because Israel exists (i.e., is in Palestine)?

If you do you agree with Bin Laden as well, since that is his claim as well.

David Frum was a short-lived SPEECHWRITER. He had no input on policy whatsoever.

Bill Kristol is not a fan of President Bush, and was not offered a job in the administration. He is not trusted by President Bush nor his father. I can document this with references in the attitude towards Kristol discussed in both Dan Quayle's book Standing Firm and in another book about the Bush 41 Administration.

IN addition, Vice President Cheney and Condi Rice and Donald Rumsfeld supported this war. Are you under the impression that they are Jewish, or have you just rounded up any Republican Jew you can think of and decided to accuse them of "pushing" for the Iraq war?

Do you think Rumsfeld was manipulated by Wolfowitz? What evil do you think he will be up to now that he heads the World Bank?

The use of neo-con is obviously a code word for Jews, and you have revealed yourself as being one of those types who likes to blame Jews for everything.

I will pay no further attention to you.

I also note that you have only been here since May.

No one needed to "sell" the president no the war.

Are you unaware that former President Clinton signed the Iraqi Liberation Act in 1998 which called for regime change?

Are you unaware the John Kerry in 1998 gave an interview with Cokie Roberts on ABC calling for American boots on the ground to force regime change?

This country has been headed toward war with Iraq since 1992 when Iraq repeatedly violated UN resolutions and shot at our planes.

Bob Woodward's first book after 9/11, Bush At War, documents that Iraq was discussed at that time but it was decided that a) Afghanistan should be dealt with first and b) we needed to build up our troop strength before tackling Iraq.

You honestly think reporters at The Weekly Standard, those "neocons" as you so quaintly call them, talked the president into war? I have to question your judgement and your age.
