I guess no one saw that Seymour Hersh intvu with Wolfie.
We need to get the transcript of that...because his talking points were so circular, and so "vague", IMHO...that he repeated himself, which leads me to think that he was really having to effort to convince himself, as well as Wolfie about his newest conspiracy theory.
I can't do it justice..that is why I would like to read the transcript...(he was talking about the subject of an article he wrote for The New Yorker).
The condensed version is this:
He says that Pres. Bush has gone covert, with operatives and money that Congress has NO IDEA about...he speculated that the money being used is the missing CASH from Iraq, right after we took Baghdad...
This cash..and these covert agents are in Lebanon...and are working with the USA and AL-QUEDA...to take down Hezbollah..and that there are 2-3 different radical groups that WE are funding and working with to affect that change...in Lebanon...
Because OUR goal is to help create a Shiite Cresent..instead of Iran having a Sunni Cresent...
And...all of this talk about killing al-queda is a front..and they just do it in other countries as a "cover".
Two or three times in the interview (he talked VERY rapidly)..he said "this must be brought to Congress for an investigation and hearings"....
He said that this makes the Iran/Contra scandal seem like child's play...but it is in that vein that Bush is working covertly!!
He mentioned Iran/Contra several times...and having investigations and hearings several times.
However, I think (and this is where the transcript will be handy) he couched a LOT of his charges with that old "secret source" or "rumor has it"...type language..hehehe
Will CNN put up a verbatim transcript. I wasn't paying attention to that conspiracy stuff, but it sounds like ol' Sy needs more tinfoil.
Things seem quite similar to maybe 90 or so days before the Iraq invasion, in the way that the MSM is resorting to inventing stories and just plain lying, because they see danger coming to their agenda should Bush pull the trigger.
There is a full on news blackout on the success of the surge, full coordination between the MSM, Dems and foreign news agencies, all towards stopping an Iran ass-whipping before it starts.
On top of all that, Joe Lieberman might have to hire a food taster.
Bwahahahah. I heard some of that. I was look behind Seymour for the man in the white coat that just HAD to be accompanying him.
I think he also said something about Negraponte being too high minded to continue going along with all of this skullduggery and that's why he didn't want to be DNI anymore. He got stung over Nicaragua don'tcha know.
Here's the article in the New Yorker where Hersh spells it out:

Txsleuth, I jost got here. Are you certain that Hersh said something about Iran wanting a Sunni crescent? That makes no sense, as Iran is Shia!
He had to. There's only a few months left to impeach the President.
