Wonder who gave the order to raid Chalabi's house and why ??

[kentuck]

The one person that probably gave more intel to Bush and Cheney pre-war than anyone else finds himself backed up against the wall in a raid by American and Iraqi forces. Was it a mistake? Or was it the call of the Iraqi forces that were with the Americans? Or was it a call of the American commander in the field, whoever that might have been?

Or was it a message to Chalabi to cool it with his criticism of America's policy, which he had been quite vocal about in recent weeks. Does Mr Chalabi straighten up his act or does he end up hanging from a bridge in Baghdad? What's the rest of the story?

1. Chalabi has been caught playing both sides

He's been caught giving info on the US military to Iran, for one thing.

This lying piece of crap had his allowance cut off, so I strongly suspect that he's going down soon. I only hope he takes his patron (Cheney) with him.

This may be the beginning of the collpse of the whole PNAC house of cards.

2. Was he part of Cheney's energy task force ?

Oh, I forgot. We don't have a right to know that.....

3. Chalabi

could have been bitching about his last installment of his USA paycheck bounced. Bush can't let the voters know we are broke before the election.

4. Look at Bush Criminal Empire history - Once you become a liability to them

...you're toast. Saddam. Noriega. Osama. (OK, jury's still out on that one)
