CHALABI "TROUBLES" LINKED TO OUR NEW UN PANDERING

Michael Ledeen gets on board the Chalabi is a fall guy for somebody train; he thinks the Intel Community needs to get him.

By now everybody knows that the IC failed to appreciate the significance of al Qaeda, failed to see 9/11 coming, failed to develop reliable information about Iraq, whether it be about internal political realities (those failed coups, remember?), or the WMD facts, from their existence to their location, and so forth. The spooks must be wondering if some political or budgetary axe is hovering over them, and so they need a scapegoat.

I think the Bush White House has decided to cover up the entire oil for food scandal in order to get some traction in the UN. Suddenly Powell, Bremer, and "The White House" are all in favor of the UN SKUNK Lakhdar Brahimi setting up a government in Iraq without the consent of the Iraqis. Does anybody this side of the looney ward think Iraqis want the robber baron UN anywhere near their country?

The odors on this deal now approach the stench category. Democrats are too ideological to take an honest campaign issue out of this, as the Ledeen "fisking" of the assholes on the left demonstrates. The Oil for Food UN scheme is the biggest financial scandal ever, and our sudden love affair with the totally corrupt UN permeates this thing.

Suddenly Powell, Bremer, and presumably the White House (Bush) are in bed with the corrupt bastards. I don't see a free Iraq going along with these crooked pricks for one second. As more and more "conservative" leaning types start sniffing this thing we may find the truth. My suspicions are that The Administration, all of it, has decided to do what they can to kiss the UN ass and anybody who doesn't like it will get a visit from the FBI. Ledeen, far smarter than me, thinks this is U.S. intelligence covering their own sorry asses.

Hold your nose while you read Ledeen.
