Hi Phil,

Re: Zelikow's admission about the real reason for war. --

I saw this item briefly mentioned in an alternate media source about 2 or 3 weeks ago. So the Asia Times hasn't broken the story, but it is gratifying to see it get a prominent article in the A Times.

Re: I had no idea!

In the frontispiece to Steven Kinzer's terrific book "All the Shah's Men", a history of the coup the C.I.A. organized in Iran in 1953, there is a quote from President Harry Truman.

"The only thing new in life is the history you don't know."

I see the White House is true to form, releasing the Aug. 6, 2001 PDB at the best time of the week to bury an item in the news cycle. And, of course, they've redacted anything that would really incriminate Bush and his band of criminals.
