“I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."-Voltaire
I received this unedited letter from an anonymous reader, and post it in the spirit of tolerance and independent thought.
“Jim, Regarding your letter to the editor of the Delaware County Times:
Your comments are extremely ignorant. “It was Bush’s invasion of an oil rich nation that created the chaos in Iraq” is utter nonsense. Your comments puppet the enemy’s propaganda. Do we control the oil fields and their profits? No! Don’t be so naive. “Pressured the CIA to falsely report that Iraq was developing weapons of mass destruction” Were you misquoted, or are you really that stupid? This intelligence existed before Bush was in office as shown by the comments of the liberal left-Kennedy, Kerry, Clinton, Pelosi, etc., as well as the actions of the previous Clinton administration. I guess everyone lied because they all said the same thing, but now it’s “Bush’s” intelligence since they all came to the same conclusion. Yeah right!
You blindly soak up everything the liberal media forces down your throat. Try applying some common sense to the issues. Certainly, if you did that you would draw different conclusions. Hussein had already used such weapons. The UN gave Iraq a ridiculous amount of time to get rid of anything, not to mention that we have found mustard gas. We had the legal authority for this war when Iraq disobeyed the first resolution never mind 17 of them.
Thank God Bush had the guts to take the initiative. Has history taught you nothing? God help us if Al Qaida breaks the will of George Bush as they have already broken the will of the people like you. And that is the only way that they can win. Obviously you want to help in that respect.
Why don’t we all do a study on why the terrorist hate us? They hate all prosperous non islam nations. We are the biggest and most prosperous. Sorry to burst your bubble, but George Bush and America are not the bad guys. It is people that think like you that will be the true downfall of this great country. You are pathetic!
Sincerely,
Every sensible American.”
Every sensible American should recognize that Bush’s imperialistic invasion of an oil rich nation created the chaos in Iraq is supported by experts on the Middle East and counterterrorism.
Career counterterrorism expert Richard Clarke served under four presidents beginning as an analyst on nuclear weapons under Reagan and established a record for continuous service in national security policy positions. Clarke wrote: "We invaded and occupied an oil rich Arab country that posed no threat to us...We delivered to al Qaeda the greatest recruitment propaganda imaginable."
Paul Pillar served 28 years with the CIA and retired in 2005, as senior intelligence officer for the Near East and South Asia. He charges the Bush administration with the selective use of intelligence about Iraq's unconventional weapons and of ignoring predictions of postwar chaos in Iraq.
Pillar wrote: “If the entire body of official intelligence analysis on Iraq had a policy implication, it was to avoid war...or, if war was going to be launched, to prepare for a messy aftermath.”
"There was just a resignation within the agency that we were going to war against Iraq and it didn't make any difference what the analysis was or what kind of objections or countervailing forces there were to the invasion. We were going to war."- Former senior member of the U. S. intelligence community, Michael Scheuer, who has two decades of experience in national security issues.
Scheuer, the former head of the bin Laden unit, wrote “Imperial Hubris”, while with the CIA. He emphasized: “We must recognize that our invasion of Iraq was not preemptive; it was an avarice, premeditated, unprovoked war against a foe who posed no immediate threat, but whose defeat did offer economic advantages.” Economic advantages is the politically correct term for gaining control of Iraqi oil.
