A guy like Ijaz who throws out accusations and threats , willy-nilly, daring people to depose him, dropping names like Graham etc., makes me wonder why he's being so vocal. He's admitted helping Pearl with appointments in Pakistan. He's doing this, IMO, to deflect attention from his role in the Pearl affair.

[swarthyguy]

What's wrong with an agenda, anyway? My agenda is
Don't take Ijaz at face value; his statements are self serving. Like this
IN his own words.

Shortly after the tragic events of September 11, Mr. Pearl called me from Bombay and said he had been made aware that I had some contacts with some of the either former associates of Osama bin Laden or some of the more radical Islamic groups in Pakistan, which I did from other things that I had done in that region. And he wanted to know whether or not I would be willing to introduce him to them. And I spent about an hour with him in that first telephone call essentially trying to understand what story he wanted to pursue to make sure I wasn't unnecessarily putting him in harm's way, because these are not people who understand mistakes very well. And I was absolutely convinced of his integrity, his honesty, his approach, and I made those contacts available to him. And one of those contacts was the one who sent me an e-mail message last Friday morning, very early in the morning, essentially saying that Daniel was missing for the last 48 hours, was I aware of it, and what needed to be done. And that's when I started to proceed to get involved in this process.

Gay GOP Senate (cheer)Leader? Did he ever leave any DNA at Gary Condit's apartment? Come on man, spill, pleeease.

[rwfromkansas]

bump...especially to the LAST PARAGRAPH...it is nice to know I can trust Bush completely in this.

[janetgreen]

BUMP to read later...

[rwfromkansas]

good info....I have wrote this down and I am going to be writing to the local paper I think for a letter to the editor criticizing the national media.

[dpa5923]

Bump for further digestion.

It is going to be an interesting summer.

[PsyOp]

Badda PING!

[texasbluebell]

It sure does appear that SOMEONE has SOMETHING on SOMEBODY.

They all have something on each other, I'm convinced.

And I'm also convinced the 'toons are blackmailing all of them. (Remember those 900 missing FBI files a while back?)

[My Favorite Headache]

Watch him suddenly die in a freak accident...or a hole in the head.

[Stultis]

What does Hillary have to say about this?

Hmmmm. I dunno. Jot that one down for her next, uh, her first, not pre-scripted press conference, when ever (if ever) that will be.

Daniel Pearl knew what he was doing when he went into Pakistan for that interview. He was taking a big risk, I doubt Ijaz ever tried to hide that fact from him. I doubt very much that Ijaz was part of a conspiracy to trick Pearl into becoming a hostage.

[Stultis]

You never heard him badmouthing Democrats before Bush won the election. Nothing wrong with being an oppportunist, that's pretty much what he is.

But is he really the cynic, or are you? I vote for you.

[Revolting cat!]

NO American president since before FDR has wanted to ruffle the feathers of the perfumed princes.

You're right of course, but I think it is time Dubya took off his white gloves and went after the perfumed princes Clinton, Berger, Albright, Susan Rice and all those Demagogue Party princelings in Congress.

[PsyOp]

Lanny Davis already has started the smear. "I refuse to discuss anything about him." Cited having trouble with him as a source. Wouldn't go into details but it was "something that happened."

That sounds like an admission to me. If they really could beat this guy on the facts, you know they would be shovelling them to sympathetic media outlets. Instead they'll do what they always do when facts are not on their side - character assasination by innuendo.

[Stultis]

He's admitted helping Pearl with appointments in Pakistan. He's doing this, IMO, to deflect attention from his role in the Pearl affair.

B.S. I have heard him discuss his role in the Pearl affair several times, with never the slightest indication of reticence. What is it with you and this utterly gratuitous claim that because Ijaz hooked Pearl up with a contact that he is thereby implicated in the murder? Do you even have a shred of evidence behind this claim?

[swarthyguy]

I Most certainly am a cynic. He sets up contacts for Pearl; Pearl goes to Pakistan on the strength of these contacts; Pearl is kidnapped and killed and you tell me i'm a cynic for impugning Ijaz?

[syriacus]

Thank you for the explanation. It's obvious now that Clinton was even worse than I thought.

[ET(end tyranny)]

I can't explain why, but I have a uncomfortable feeling that he won't be called to testify.

I'm with you. Either he'll turn up missing/dead, or the GOP won't call him. The woman from the DMV that burned in her car comes to mind for some reason.
