(26,060 posts)he was given cooked evidence, his staffer Wilkerson (I think that was his name) saying the same would be all the evidence anyone would need that we were lied into war. Wilkerson even admitted it under oath in front of Congress.
You seem to think we went into Iraq at the behest of Israel...even though the evidence is there that Bush intended to hit Iraq from the minute he walked into the oval office. Polls show that Americans support the aid going to Israel so I would hardly call that evidence of something detrimental (even though it chaps your ass). How was it that Bibi is responsible for that embarassing display in front of Congress you refer to? I'm not sure what your point is with that lunatic Ben Smith's column. He's an opinion writer and so fucking what? My perception of your problem here is that the President, the congress and the majority of Americans don't agree with you about Israel and therefore they're wrong and you're right. Good luck with that.
