Via our conservative friends at LewRockwell.com comes this from Eliot Weinberger, What I Heard about Iraq. He has a list of what Colin Powell, Condoleezza Rice and the CIA were saying about Iraq before 9-11. A few hours after the 9-11 attack Rumsfeld said:
On 11 September 2001, six hours after the attacks, I heard that Donald Rumsfeld said that it might be an opportunity to ‘hit’ Iraq. I heard that he said: ‘Go massive. Sweep it all up. Things related and not.’
He then lists the litany of lies following 9-11. Nothing new but all the lies in one place. Give it a look.
