He [Hersh] argues that the CIA argues that after 9-11 Syria and Iraq and Iran scaled down their commitments to ME terrorist groups. That was a window of opportunity which the Bush folk missed.

Oh, yes. Sure. Sensationalistic, fuzzy-wuzzy Sy Hersh, glasses akimbo, hair in orbit, bottle-in-the-bottom-desk- drawer, delusions of past grandeur in his rear-view mirror, is going to be provided this kind of sensitive information by the CIA so that he possibly skewer it?

Don't for a second think the CIA would let Dracula Hersh into its blood bank.

All I can say, is PUHHHLEEEZE! More BS from Hersh.

If true, the information supports Perle's idea that a good demonstration of military power has a beneficial effect. They didn't want to see happen to them what was happening to the Taliban.

The Iraqis, I thought, were never a problem, John. Containment was working and all that, no? ;)

And, uh, by the way, how about the Saudis, where the real money for terror came from?
