"…it is a fact that the campaign to overthrow Saddam Hussein was initiated, well before 9/11, by a group of influential American neocons, notably Perle, Feith and Wolfowitz (once described by Time magazine as “the godfather of the Iraq war”) nearly all of whom were ardent Zionists, in many cases more concerned with preserving the security of Israel than that of the US."

This, unfortunately, is the truth.

If by "the truth," you mean, "a contemptible load of crap."

You may disagree with the policy recommendations of these individuals. That's one thing. But instead you assent in accusing these men -- all stalwart patriots with a long record of service, including trusted positions in the Reagan administration -- of treason. That's something else entirely. And it does not reflect on Perle, Feith and Wolfowitz; it reflects on YOU.

OK, so why then did Bush shift priorities away from Afghanistan, to Iraq, before the job was finished there?

Who provided most of the information about Saddam’s “vast” WMD arsenal - Israel. And how many of those “widespread” WMD’s were eventually found in Iraq?
