8. Woolsey did more than anyone to promote the Iraq War

His stint as CIA director was nothing compared to his unofficial activities since. Among other things, he was very active trying to tie Saddam to 9/11. As I posted here a few months ago:

He was one of the PNAC signers calling for war against Iraq in 1998 and was working for the Iraqi National Congress by 2000, but he really went into high gear after September 11. On October 14, 2001, The Guardian reported (http://www.theguardian.com/world/2001/oct/14/terrorism.afghanistan6):

"It was confirmed yesterday that Jim Woolsey, CIA director from 1993 to 1996, recently visited London on behalf of the hawkish Defence Department to 'firm up' other evidence of Iraqi involvement in 11 September.

"Some observers fear linking Saddam to the terrorist attacks is part of an agenda being driven by US hawks eager to broaden the war to include Iraq, a move being resisted by the British government."

During that same London visit, he was looking for evidence to tie Saddam Hussein to the anthrax attacks. And a couple of months later, he was already pushing the Curveball/mobile labs claims.

That man has more blood on his hands than almost anyone else except Dick Cheney.
