The Iraq invasion was propelled by phony claims from the intelligence community that Saddam had WMDs and somehow was a threat to the US
It was all BS
Too many Freepers swallowed the BS from mediocrities like this guy in the intelligence community. And they ridiculed the UN guy - Blix - who was on the ground in Iraq and said there were no WMDs. Well Blix was right and our intelligence community was wrong
For saying these FACTS I predict Im going to get flamed today by delusional Freepers who still cant break free of their old faith in these people and still want to believe that guys in the intelligence community were telling us the truth about WMDs.
The same intelligence community that now says Russia is undermining our elections and Trump colluded with Russia.
Hayden is a girly man.
We found some wmds... Mostly old and leaking... Mustard agent. There were reports of shipments to Syria before the war kicked off.
You need to update your facts.
Yes what they found was very hazardous, which is probably why it was left there. Was there more? I don’t know. Some Iraqis not loyal to Saddam said they sent it to Syria.
It doesn’t take a masters degree to know how to spot a traitor.
Trump knows as much and more than we do and we know ALOT!!!
So, Herr General, when did you earn your first billion?
Well I have an 8th grade education.
And I still have enough memory to recognize the name Michael Hayden. He stinks.
Elmer Fudd
He knows more than you, you commie pinko!
If mikey here wants to talk about it back of the barn, I’ll fold his teeth back for him...
TheHill.com: Former CIA chief Hayden slams Biden’s Libya assessment. By Carlo Muñoz - 10/12/12
Former CIA Director Gen. Michael Hayden has joined the chorus of GOP voices slamming Vice President Biden’s comments on the White House’s inconsistent explanation of the Sept. 11 assault on the American Consulate in Libya.
During Thursday’s vice presidential debate, Biden blame[d].... the U.S. intelligence community for its initial claims the attack in Benghazi was the result of a anti-American protest gone awry. The intelligence community told us that, Biden said. As they learned more facts about exactly what happened, they changed their assessment.
Look, if we are hit by terrorists, we are going to call it for what it is: a terrorist attack,” Rep. Paul Ryan (W-Wisc.) shot back during Thursday’s debate. Weeks after the attack, which ended in the deaths of four Americans including U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens, the administration admitted the assault was a coordinated strike by Libyan extremists.
Hayden, who led the CIA for three years under the George W. Bush White House, said the administration had no one to blame but itself for its flawed explanation of the Benghazi attack. “It is clear that any failure was not on the part of the intelligence community, but on the part of White House decision-makers who should have listened to, and acted on, available intelligence,” Hayden said in a joint statement with former Homeland Security chief Michael Chertoff...
Gen Michael Hayden @GenMhayden I have a masters degree. I ran CIA and NSA. Trump wants a patriotic commission, 1776 Commission. What does he know about that? Absolutely nothing. And hes not interested in facts.
This from the nation’s most dangerous traitor that ever held top CIA and NSA positions. He should have been court martial-ed, stripped of his rank and jailed.
I would have thought that someone who ran CIA and NSA would be more impressive.
Great. I have a masters degree and a JD and I speak 3 languages. Unlike you Michael, Im not deep State scum.
(Why listing our educational degrees was necessary I have no idea)
I dont swallow ONE WORD from intel OR FBI anymore EVER, the most corrupt departments in government they are nothing more than keystone cops LOSERS!! The Ivy League degrees mean nothing anymore either EXCEPT you yourself know NOTHING about history what history you have been taught are COMPLETELY FALSE!!
No wonder those institutions are so ineffective and corrupt when they have self-important pinheads like this in charge of them.
Oh yeah? The Professor has a B.A. from USC, a B.S. from UCLA, an M.A. from SMU, and a Ph.D from TCU.
Trump knows at least on thing about that...One important thing...He knows you have to love America to hold that position and he knows YOU don't qualify...
