US journalist Seymour Hersh yesterday contradicted news reports being published in South Asia that quote him as saying a special death squad made by former US vice-president Dick Cheney had killed Benazir Bhutto. The award-winning journalist described as complete madness the reports that the squad headed by General Stanley McChrystal the new commander of US Army in Afghanistan had also killed former Lebanese prime minister Rafique al-Hariri.
Wow. This is probably Pelosi et al hitting back. Like Krauthammer said a few days ago, Pelosi will be the one feeling the hurt.
Seymour Hersh has made an entire career out of writing lies. Last week he said there were photos of U.S. servicemen raping little boys in Iraq in order to “break” their suspect mothers. Hersh is a vile piece of excrement.
He needs Jailed for that stupidity.Maybe post some pictures of him and farm animals.
Agreed. Hersh is a lying sack of filth.
He did make the child rape claim - but where is the evidence? He should be forced to produce evidence after an accusation of that level.
Liberal Rule #1: Spew untruths as you please.
Liberal Rule #2: When caught telling an untruth, lie and assert otherwise.
Liberal Rule #3: Rinse and Repeat.
What a weasel this guy is.
Seymour Hersh

“”I did not say Cheney killed Benazir: Hersh
LAHORE: US journalist Seymour Hersh on Monday contradicted news reports being published in South Asia that quote him as saying a special death squad made by former US vice president Dick Cheney had killed Benazir Bhutto. The award-winning journalist described as complete madness the reports that the squad headed by General Stanley McChrystal the new commander of US army in Afghanistan had also killed former Lebanese prime minister Rafique Al Hariri and a Lebanese army chief. Vice president Cheney does not have a death squad. I have no idea who killed Mr Hariri or Mrs Bhutto, Hersh said. I have never said that I did have such information. I most certainly did not say anything remotely to that effect during an interview with an Arab media outlet. He said Gen McChrystal had run a special forces unit that engaged in high value target activity, but while I have been critical of some of that units activities in the pages of the New Yorker and in interviews, I have never suggested that he was involved in political assassinations or death squads on behalf of Mr Cheney, as the published stories state. He regretted that none of the publications had contacted him before carrying the report. This is another example of blogs going bonkers with misleading and fabricated stories and professional journalists repeating such rumours without doing their job and that is to verify such rumours. staff report””
I can’t say what I am thinking.
Hersh looks like a Soros clone.
Seymour Hiney is a VILE LIAR!
It would appear there is proof of soldiers raping children in Iraq.

She was referring to Omar Sheikh, the man convicted of murdering Daniel Pearl. She probably meant to say Pearl instead of Bin Laden. There seems to be no evidence that she actually thought Bin Laden was dead.
No, not that, but raped systematically ordered for interrogation purposes. That is what Hersh is talking about.
Any time you put 150,000 young men somewhere, there is going to be an occasional rape or assault. I don’t care if it’s a worldwide peace convention, much less an army. We don’t recruit from Sunday schools.
That would be terrible if that were found out to be true. Yet, it is hard to accept this type of info from any source, cause it would rock our core beliefs, and trust.
