Good New! "The occupation of Iraq ended in 2004" Wolfowitz said today!

Wolfowitz: ‘The Occupation Of Iraq Ended In June 2004′»
APRIL 28, 2008


At a Hudson Institute event today, Iraq war architects Paul Wolfowitz and Doug Feith, as well as Dan Senor and Peter Rodman, reconvened to celebrate Feith’s new book, War and Decision, which tries to explain the failures of the Iraq war as just failures of other people.

Wolfowitz said Feith’s book is “valuable” because it “demolishes” the “well-nurtured myths” about the Pentagon’s execution of the war. In his book, Feith claims the “chief” mistake in Iraq was maintaining an occupation government for over a year.” Wolfowitz agreed, adding that the “occupation” in fact ended in 2004:

The fact is, however, that we did end up with an occupation authority for a full nine months, and I’m afraid that the label occupation sticks to us even to this day, although the occupation ended in June of 2004. Doug considers that the biggest mistake we made.

2. The occupation ended in 2004 because today is 1984
Now, that makes sense.

3. Now I see. It was a BRILLIANT PLAN put forth by visionary geniuses!
It just flopped because of poor execution by "others". Yessssssss. That's the ticket.

4. These guys are exactly the types, George Orwell had in mind
Edited on Mon Apr-28-08 06:07 PM by Uncle Joe
when he wrote 1984, but I believe even Orwell would blush at the audacity of their bull shit.

Thanks for the thread, Ichingcarpenter.

8. I watched parts of this presentation on CSPAN this evening only wondering...
Why are not these war crime criminals 'hanging by the noose until dead' for their complicity in one of the greatest of lies and false wars in our modern times?
