While this may be true, we were certainly manipulated by Ahmed Chalabi, aka Curveball.

The dismantling of Iraq was a priority moreso for Israel than the USA. Some of the pronounced neo-con narratives conditioning the American public for invasion were in my opinion Mossad mouth pieces.

I believe Mossad has a lot of powerful well placed fronts in the USA.

I have no doubt that's true, but we never would've gone in without the tactic approval of our other allies in the ME.

I'm sure them being shaking in their shoes had something to do with it!

Because the names were Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz they have to be Mossad, bit of a stretch doncha think.

Despite the Scud missiles Israel restrained themselves at our urging.

More or less, here they use the phrase "My good friend across the aisle." but we all know what that means.

It would do two important things, no more "Advise and Consent" and no more "Electoral College" so we would be back to "One man one vote".

I was not thinking re names! The chorus!

Iraq was a missile threat to Israel. Especially since one could be certain about the quality of the missiles. Or how long it would take for the Iraqis to improve such. Why not get the Americans to do the dismantling work. Israel is really a small population country and puts a great premium on the life of one soldier.

I think the Israelies could have taken out Iraq's scud faster than we did.
