Sy Hersh: Bush Administration Covert Ops Money Linked to Jihadists
Oh, oh my...

Seymour Hersh with Wolf Blitzer today;

http://www.crooksandliars.com/2007/02/25/seymour-hersh-negroponte-iran-contra-fundsoh-my/

Hersh: We are simply in a situation where this president is really taking his notion of executive privilege to the absolute limit here, running covert operations, using money that was not authorized by Congress, supporting groups indirectly that are involved with the same people that did 9/11, and we should be arresting these people rather than looking the other way…


-------------------------------------

How much you want to bet they were funding them before 9/11 too?

1. It's getting harder and harder to believe anything but MIHOP.
These sons of bitches are as bad as they come, the worst of the worst.

2. Seymore says the US knowingly allowing Al Queda to be fundrd and utilized.
Does that mean we have to attack our selves now for supporting the terrorists?

6. Right!
Have we forgotten who attacked us? Sunnis mostly from Saudi Arabia. Now we are supporting the Sunnis against the Shia--hm-mm!

If we had asked President Bush, when he first became President, to do the stupidest thing in foreign policy he could possibly conceive he would have done exactly what he did. If he is unhappy with the threat of Iran he has only to look in the mirror to find the one that made it possible.
