Dickey--

1) I wish you good luck with your sax.

2) It is quite clear to any rational person that there was a propaganda campaign by the Bush administration to persuade the US public that the next terrorists would be supplied by Saddam with WMD. If the US public believed that Saddam had caused 9-11, so much the better for Bush's campaign--but that was not necessary for Bush's purposes.

All that was needed was to convince the public that there were links between terrorists who would attack the US in the future--(hence the constant reiteration by Bush of the 9-11 mantra--constant referral to the attacks)--and mention of Saddam. The campaign sought--and was brilliantly successful in this--to associate Saddam and 9-11 in the minds of the US public--without making the blatant statement that Saddam had caused 9-11.   The regime, with no proof whatsoever, sought to make the case in the public mind that Saddam had WMD with which he would supply the next attackers on the US.

Do you believe this--yes or no?

If not, specifically what part do you not believe?


You have supplied precisely zero evidence against this charge.




As I said before, Goebbels would have been proud of the Bush accomplishment in propaganda.
