Seems that Black's Prince was rather devious. Even Lord Black clearly trusted him about as far as he could throw him. Makes you wonder if Perle and Chalabi, two masters of deception, might have sold W something he didn't need, like an Iraq invasion. In the last few months, Mr. Perle, 62, has also alienated former allies at the Pentagon for his continued defense of Ahmad Chalabi, the Iraqi opposition leader who has recently come under suspicion of leaking important intelligence information to Iran. Mr. Perle was forced to step down from the Pentagon advisory board after disclosures about his plans to work for Global Crossing and his meeting with a Saudi businessman, Adnan Khashoggi. When Chalabi was pressed about the truthfulness of the information he was feeding Bush, he finally said something like - well the final goal was achieved [ deposing Saddam ] so what does it matter if the info was genuine. I think that was when his welcome wore out at the White House. Made Bush look like a fool, and Chalabi lost his protection. Doc
