John > Blind, if he can’t see Bush’s craven ties to Israel, driven by the neocons and the Christian Zionists and Bible-thumping fundamentalists like Jerry Falwell, who consider Israel Jesus’ next stop and see Saudi Arabia as Satanic The opinion of Senator Ernest F. Hollings wagingpeace.org >>The plan hit paydirt with the election of George W. Bush. Perle took on the Defense Policy Board. Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and Feith became one, two and three at the Defense Department, and Cheney as vice president took Scooter Libby and David Wurmser as his deputies. Clean Break was streamlined to go directly into Iraq. Iraq , as a threat to the United States , was all contrived. Richard Clarke stated in his book, Against All Enemies, with John McLaughlin of the CIA confirming, that there was no evidence or intelligence of "Iraqi support for terrorism against the United States " from 1993 until 2003 when we invaded. The State Department on 9/11 had a list of 45 countries wherein al Qaeda was operating. While the United States was listed, it didn't list the country of Iraq. President Bush must have known that there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. We have no al Qaeda, no weapons of mass destruction and no terrorism from Iraq ; we were intentionally misled by the Bush administration. <<

Re: Moore totally avoids the question of Israel...Here are some questions for Moore: If Bush is so "in the pocket" of Saudi Arabia, why is he Ariel Sharon's strongest backer? [...] Or cowardly, because he knows it and decided not to mention it. Is that because attacking Israel is too hard? Well, I guess Michael Moore is just smart: if he had indulged in the slightest slur against Israel, the Zionist lobby or Ariel Sharon, he perfectly knew that we wouldn't be talking and fussing over his movie today... Forget about the Palme d'Or, forget about everything --LOL. As I said, the US establishment has skillfully and firmly formatted the issue: the media have trapped public opinion between two equally bogus rationales --the WMD hoax to pander to the right wing, and the greedy oilmen to fool the leftists... Can you imagine American liberals and pacifists demonstrating and picketing in Washington, waving posters that read "NO WAR FOR ISRAEL!"... "NO WAR FOR SHARON!"... "LIBERATE PALESTINE, NOT IRAQ!"... instead of "NO WAR FOR OIL!"????
