How dare Condi Rice lie about the war in Iraq on the eve of 9/11’s fifth year anniversary. It was bad enough last week with her trying to compare it to the release of slaves in the United States, but today she is just flat out lying and this time it is easy to catch.Last week there were reports everywhere declaring no link between Saddam and Al-Qaida. The report specifically said “postwar information indicates that Saddam Hussein attempted, unsuccessfully, to locate and capture al-Zarqawi and that the regime did not have a relationship with, harbor or turn a blind eye toward Zarqawi.” The report further states that Saddam"was distrustful of al-Qaida and viewed Islamic extremists as a threat to his regime." So what does Condi Rice say today on the Sunday Talking Head Shows?
“There were ties between Iraq and Al-Qaeda…We know that Zarqawi was running a poison network in Iraq."
About the report that came out last week?
“That particular report I don't remember seeing…There are conflicting intelligence reports all the time”
I will grant to her the possibility that there were conflicting reports at the time leading up to the war. I can understand them going with the most severe assessment with the fear of messing up so big on 9/11 driving them forward. If 9/11 had anything to do with Iraq, it was that the underestimated the threat of 9/11 and overestimated the threat of Iraq as a result. I understand that.
I cannot understand her lying now though. I know there is an election coming this year and they really need to keep the Congress, but a lie like this is so easily caught. They must be counting on the press just letting this one pass considering tomorrow is the 9/11 anniversary.
I bet that is it! I bet she said this obvious and outrageous lie on the day before the anniversary of 9/11 because she knew the media would be too preoccupied to bust her on it.
“That particular report I don't remember seeing”
I believe you may not have seen it before the war started, but with all the news last week there is no way you did not see it last week. You are a liar, Ms Rice. You know the Fox viewers already believe there is a link and you know Fox viewers do not trust the media so you told a lie there knowing it would fly.
Shame on you Ms. Rice! I used to have respect for you. I used to believe you put country before politics. Now I know better and I am so disgusted.
