Thom Hartmann - saying that Iran and Iraq are ALLIES!
Don't forget that Maliki is a Shia. He has met with the leaders of Iran, also Shia!

1. Neocon miscalulation = coup for Iranian intelligence
as DIA's Col. Patrick Lang has said. For this alone Bush and Cheney should be impeached at the least, or else treason should be looked into...

Iran used Chalabi to dupe U.S., report says

""Patrick Lang, former director of the DIA's Middle East branch, said he had been told by colleagues that Chalabi's U.S.-funded program to provide information about weapons of mass destruction and insurgents was effectively an Iranian intelligence operation. "They (the Iranians) knew exactly what we were up to," he said.

He described it as "one of the most sophisticated and successful intelligence operations in history."

"I'm a spook. I appreciate good work. This was good work," he said. ""

2. Translation: Iran's support for "insurgents" is legal.
Bush's threats are illegal.

3. Well, duhhhhh!
That's what a lot of people don't seem to take into account. Likewise, the al-Queda taking power is pure crap! AQ is Sunni.

Iraq said early on that if the US attacks Iran, they will side with Iran. We will NOT have a guaranteed ally in our debt with Iraq and Bush seriously miscalculated when he threw the dice. Last night I heard that Saudi Arabia's (Sunni) massing forces for the south. :scared:
