Does anyone here think that now that they've issued an arrest warrant

[acmavm]

for Chalabi and his Chalabi nephew, this might mean that the bush* administration will finally get rid of Wolfie, Perle, and that little vermin Feith.

Seems to me that there must be some kind on internal war going in this administration, and that the Chalabi supporters are going to be screwed over. Does this seem logical to anyone else? Certainly they're going to have to shitcan the truly hardcore Chalabi supporters so that they can try to pretent that they (bush*, Cheney, Powell, Rice, Rover, etc.) we just victims of this crook. I know that everyone here knows better than that, but they need to put some kind of bull over on the diehard Flavor Aide drinkers or else they may get a little suspicious.

I'm just trying to figure out what's going on here. I know that Chalabi lately was quoted as saying nicey nice things about al Sadr, and that they tried to arrest al Sadr and missed. Is this all tied in together? And will they sacrifice the real hard core neos just to maintain credibility?

My inquiring mind wants to know.

1. More likely, it means Wolfie, Perle, and that little vermin Feith will be

getting rid of the liability that Chalabi is to them.

Attention spans being what they are with too many people, few will connect the dots. It will just drop down the memory hole unless the American Intel community keeps it afloat long enough to suck the terrible trio with it when it all flushes.

5. The crime is the administration believed his lies. They always have to

blame someone other than themselves. You know of course, that Shrub doesn't know of any mistakes he has made.

2. Hmmm...

I wonder if they'll gun down Chalabi and his entire family, then display them on newsfeeds like war trophies as in the case of Sadam's sons? Speaking of Sadam's sons, I wonder if Bush has their shrunken heads in a box, right next to their dad's pistol? Just morbidly curious...

7. More than likely

The boys (or at least their heads) are in a windowless
chamber in a small building near the Yale campus.

There is a reason they call it the "SKULL & BONES" society.

3. It seems as if the Iraq quagmire/civil war inevitably grows to mirror

the civil war within this administration State/WH/Pentagon/Intel.

I'm not a conspiracist, but it sure looks as though the bureaucratic fubar this administration is has a deadly reflection in Iraq.

4. man. what a den of weasels ...

Those tumors on the body politic should be removed immediately, and their influence chemo'd from adjoining tissue.

6. Oh ye of little Feith

8. I would guess the Bush regime has decided to put their money on Allawi??

You cannot serve two masters. And Allawi has convinced them that he needs to knock out all the opposition, including political opponents like Chalabi, before the country can be stabilized. That is why he has decided to get rid of Al Jazeera also. Since they are the only voice in Fallujah, we may anticipate an assault on that city any day now. That is the one place that must be defeated before Iraq will ever be stabilized. It will be with GWB's blessing.

9. If memory serves...

It seems that Ahmed Chalabi got a visit from Iraqi and US Investigators at his house and office shortly after Chalabi stated that having former Baathists back in beurocratic positions was akin to having Nazis in similar positions in Germany after WW2. Chalabi's group were the 1st to enter Baghdad after the US Forces and his group gathered up 25 tons of documents of Saddam's activities. Those docs are obviously well hidden.

Chalabi provided the OSP, Rumsfailed and Cheney's alt. CIA op with intell. that they wanted. It was not a matter of credibilty of that Intell. but that it was info. that would bolster the deception to invade Iraq. Chalabi admitted that the intell was bogus but accomplished his purpose to have Saddam and his Regime overthrown, calling himelf and his cohorts, "Heroes in error."

The CIA, esp. Tenet was out to discredit Chalabi for many years, even before the illegal invasion. Chalabi had been accused of funneling secret intell to Iran, specifically the info. that the US had brocken Iran secret codes.

To be cont.

10. I agree with you, Disturbed.

The Bushistas embarrassed the CIA. The long knives are out.
