"Too politically sensitive," like pointing out that Pres. Bush and his lackeys are a bunch of stone-cold traitors:

No links between Saddam and Al Qaeda, but there is a flip side to this story:

The fact is, we invaded the wrong stinkin' country, period. How things are going now is irrelevant. And those who truly are responsible for the attacks on 9/11 and the rise of Al Qaeda (not to mention most of the suicide bombings in Iraq) have been allowed to get away with it scot-free:

Given the fact that John McCain's own fundraising chief is a paid lobbyist for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia:

. . . I suppose we can expect more of the same in a third "Bush" term.

That wasn't the only Rand study they buried. Remember this one:

Whatever you think about Laurent Murawiec, and the imperialistic tenor of his presentation, he was clearly on to something:

I also find it stunning that we have presidential aspirants talking about staying in Iraq for 100 years, yet no one is even suggesting training our troops in Arabic, or even cross-training them in basic MP skills.
Imagine how outraged and combative we would be if every police officer in America patrolled the streets in full SWAT gear, and used SWAT tactics accordingly - your entire family ending up sitting in the dirt with one of those bags over their heads, hands zipped tied behind them, every time you so much as got a speeding ticket. Isn't that the approach we're practicing in Baghdad right now?
And yes, that PowerPoint presentation looked like a muddled mess. Still, this jihadist crap is coming from somewhere:

I'd like to get your own, more nuanced analysis on where the root problem lies.

Larry,
What's your take on the account by Gerald Posner as to a possible ulterior motive for the disappearance of the Zubaydah tapes:

Posner's original reporting on this has now been substantially corroborated by James Risen in State of War (p. 187). I've written more about this in "Part 4" here:

Now more than ever, I'd sure like to know what was on those tapes.

And while we're nuking Iran, guess who's sleeping snug as a bug in a rug:

Osama bin Laden must be laughing his ass off? I mean, how could God not be on his side?
