Did anyone watch America at a crossroad tonight on PBS. A very compelling story first hour about the Gangs of Iraq and second hour, the case for war By Richard Perle, I agreed with the first hours synopsis and disagreed with Richard Perle. Tomorrow the second installment looks at Europes 911. Good TV.
MED i saw it and wow Richard Pearl is still towing the party line about WMDs and how everyone knew they had them.But what he didnt mention was that there own CIA said otherwise.Its funny how everyone that he interviewed did not agree with.But he still thinks getting rid of Saddam was a good idea and we should send more troops.He also distorted the facts about Afghanistan,claiming the Taliban was responsible for the opium trade when in fact they tried to get rid of the drug.Its the warlords and the government that America put in place that is dealing in opium.But other than that he seems like a decent man i just dont know how he sleeps at night.
Yeah, and he even said he was a lifelong democrat, kinda like Joe (republican) Lieberman. Made my stomach turn when he said he loved JFK. I also loved JFK and to have Perle say that after what he has done just makes me want to puke. JFK was about to pull out of Viet Nam, I believe that is the real reason he was assasinated. The war profiteers would have none of that!Quote:
