Frank Rich in today's New York Times says it best:
...though I doubt anything will come of this.Five years after the Abu Ghraib revelations, we must acknowledge that our government methodically authorized torture and lied about it. But we also must contemplate the possibility that it did so not just out of a sincere, if criminally misguided, desire to “protect” us but also to promote an unnecessary and catastrophic war. Instead of saving us from “another 9/11,” torture was a tool in the campaign to falsify and exploit 9/11 so that fearful Americans would be bamboozled into a mission that had nothing to do with Al Qaeda. The lying about Iraq remains the original sin from which flows much of the Bush White House’s illegality.
goes back so much further....somebody at the NYTimes wants to bury more evidence about Israel....Does no one wonder at the Hague 9/12/01 hearing, where charges were to be raised against Sharon for crimes against humanity...how much am I bid for the day before...why was absenteeism at the Towers nearly 2,000. To be honest, that is one, I don't want to touch....Everybody was counting cards...
