High crimes and misdemeanors- UK article on Dick Cheney evil plans.
Edited on Sun Jun-24-07 09:17 PM by Gregorian
I was just looking around for more information on Cheney's opposition to ending apartheid when I stumbled upon this interesting article. It may be old news, but I thought it worth posting. Very frightening stuff.

“This White House official has stated to several Washington insiders that Cheney is planning to deploy an ‘end run strategy’ around the President if he and his team lose the policy argument. The thinking on Cheney’s team is to collude with Israel, nudging Israel at some key moment in the ongoing standoff between Iran’s nuclear activities and international frustration over this to mount a small-scale conventional strike against Natanz using cruise missiles (i.e., not ballistic missiles).”


In the end, however, when it comes down to launching a full frontal assault on Iran, it all depends on the Israelis. The War Party is counting on them to strike the first blow, with the guarantee that the Americans will strike the second, third, fourth, and fifth blows, ad infinitum. Blows directed not only at Iran, but also against Syria, Hezbollah, and the Palestinians.

2. Huh. I guess this isn't the story I thought it was.
But I'll give it another kick just to see.

That "they" may be trying to use Cheney to save Bush from the ramifications of stuff to come.
