Also, I generally don&#8217;t really feel qualified to say much about Iraq, since my knowledge of the subject is limited, so lets talk about things I am familiar with: women and science! (But feel free to talk about Zarqawi in the comments if that rocks your boat.)

Read more about the program, &#8220;The Making of Zarqawi,&#8221; here, and you can read a transcript of just the Mike Scheuer portion of the interview here. Interesting stuff. I don&#8217;t have time to analyze it all right now, but please feel free to have a go at it.

These thieves, cronies and contributors of Bush and Co, need to draw out as long as possible their cover-up drama of bad guys Bin Laden and Zarqawi on the loose and opportunely making threatening videos. I personally believe that the torture done to Abu Ghraib prisoners, and the smashing into Iraqi homes without regard to Muslim customs, and especially the failure to provide basic necessities for Iraqi citizens are 'enflaming dynamics' welcomed by the thieves because they prevent a 'premature' peace in Iraq.[i.e., before US permanent bases and other controls can be instituted]. We know that Iraq just spend months after the last election not being able to begin a government under their own elected leader. My question about this has always been, "Did the US interfere and foment issues behind the scenes in order to delay the new government?" As long as the American public can be manipulated into staying afraid, and are given periodic booster shots [horror stories, bad guy videos, etc], the American public will stay unaware of the ways in which America is being led by criminals minds like Cheney's. I repeat a conclusion I have made before which is: Evil rides on good energy. In this thievery instance, the evil of killing for oil and of stealing oil resouces rides on the good energy of patriotism and justifiable fear of terrorists. Evil hides itself by inflating and twisting facts.

The site is StrategyPage, which is run by James Dunnigan, a pretty solid strategic analyst. The particular piece by Hutchinson, though, strikes me as rather bizarre. I'm a little more sceptical of Scheuer's claim than is Kevin, simply because Scheuer's track record is rather mixed. He's simultaneously a brilliant tactical analyst and slightly off his rocker. Plus, as I note in my own <a href="http://www.outsidethebeltway.com/archives/2006/05/14588/" rel="nofollow">post on that topic</a>, he has written two books and otherwise had tons of opportunities since 2002, when he claimed this all happened. That he's suddenly talking about this is rather bizarre. I’m not sure who Hutchinson is, either. The site is StrategyPage, which is run by James Dunnigan, a pretty solid strategic analyst.

He will do anything and say anything for whatever he determines is his cause. I absolutely hate this guy!
