Hmmmm.
I'm not suggesting that Shaheen's Jawad was once Iraq's Oil Minister. But I wouldn't be surprised to discover that he was once on Saddam's payroll. Jawad doesn't come across as your ordinary everyday moonbat peacenik. He seems to have a much narrower focus and a more exact Saddam-sympathetic agenda. It appears clear to me that he uses ordinary everyday moonbat peaceniks like Shaheen as his foot soldiers.
