This is the run-up TO the invasion.

What do you right-wingers make of that? Isn’t it clear-cut state-sponsored terrorism? Or is it only terrorism when others do it? Enlighten us.[/quote]
They do this all the time. the CIA has been used on behalf corporations to destabilze countries. Nothing more important than the mighty dollar and power.

It shows he has an obsession.
I find it truly sickening that an individual or group would exploit the secrets of its own country for personal interests.

Bogman, sounds like a staged leak in this case. I find it hard to imagine that the media wouldn’t touch base with someone to ensure it was okay to run.
Not in general, mind you, but in the case of something like this.
