JO, have you yet seen Russias point by point refutation of Powell's intelligence presentation?

I have to admit that I am impressed with the mind control propaganda machine of this Administration in Washington DC. They know how to make complete donkies out of the general American public. Dr. Hans Blix "..bluntly reminding US Secretary of State Colin Powell that allegations without evidence were useless for UN weapons inspectors." and " Furthermore, he found no evidence that inspected sites had been given advance warning. This statement was an implied contradiction of Mr Powell's presentation to the Security Council on February 5." rnw.nl These are strong words to rebuke the validity of the documents and facts given to them. This should not be a surprise to a few of us. After all, it took months to disclose and finally relent the release of the "Highly confidential Top Secret" documents in the UN presentation. It turns out to be a mockery to the world. It takes time to create and embellish a story for the movies. It is such a gigantic embarrassment to the US administration and to the Americans. What saves Americana is that the rest of the world still have analytical logical minds to think for them. Some of them are beyond reproach and could not be bought by U$ dollars. This is a made for movie story. It makes me wonder what kind of intelligence does the US really have? It looks like pure slap-slob type of work, very typical of the lack of accountabilty sickness that pervades American corporate culture, as exemplified by Enron and Worldcom. Now it is exemplified by the government. Does American people care enough to DEMAND ACCOUNTABILITY? WAKE UP, AMERICA !!!!!
