Perle ... anything for a buck

It's not enough that Richard "Swine" Perle runs a counsulting biz to help clients who can pony up the dough, make money off the Mess in Mesopotamia in the long run, after more American Troops have given their lives there. Now he's making money in speaking fees from a group of Saddam-related Irani Terrorists who want "regime change" on their terms in Iran.

Pentagon adviser Richard Perle, a strong advocate of war against Iraq, spoke last weekend at a charity event that U.S. officials say may have had ties to an alleged terrorist group seeking to topple the Iranian government and backed by Saddam Hussein.
...
"All of the proceeds will go to the Red Cross," Perle said. Informed that the Red Cross had announced before the event it would refuse any monies because of the event's "political nature," Perle said: "I was unaware of that." Perle declined to say how much he received.
...
Jacki Flowers, a spokeswoman for the Red Cross, said the relief agency had been contacted by the sponsors about receiving funds raised at the event several weeks before it took place. But the Red Cross decided to reject the proceeds once it became aware that the event was "political in nature," specifically the promotion of regime change. She said accepting the funds would "compromise our fundamental principles of neutrality and impartiality."
Oh damn, Swine-boy they made a liar out of you; not something you are unfamiliar with of course ... the biggest one being the one about "rose petals and candy". Hope you live large on the lucre paid you, remember it probably came from the funds that fund terrorism, somewhere. Sleep well, ya two-faced bastard.

Speaking of IRan I just finished "All the Shah's Men" By Robert Kinser. The roots of this go back to the early 50s with the overthrow of Mossadegh by the CIA.Hence the Shah's rule,hence the overthrow of the Shah by islamic fundamentalists ,hence the funding of terriosts, hence the taking of hostages in Tehran at embassy,Hence our support of Saddam gassing against Iran,Saddam running amuck, Hence pnac with Perle,Hence our "intelligence failed" No shit it failed a long time ago. More like our middle east policy failed a long time ago. Spin and more spin and we all get dizzy
and fall down!

People don't bother to read history. Mossadegh was an elected leader. People in the Gulf don't believe the line about establishing democracy in the area because they know that the US helped to overthrow a democracy in the area.

The Kurds and Shi'ia don't believe us because they know what we have done in the past.

The US was not 'sweetness and light' following WWII, and people remember that.

The Soviets remember US troops landing in Russia following WWI. The US has forgotten, but the Soviets didn't.

I'm not going to condemn or condone any of these actions, but you have to remember them to understand why people don't trust us.

We don't acknowledge these actions, mostly because we have forgotten them, but they are lens through which others see us.

Iran's failure model being used all over for Afghanistan. And if anyone is the SHAH done over it is Chalabi in Iraq as well.

Look at our oil dealings, Tutwiler the assisstant sec of state to James Baker, current dircetor of communications in Iraq (my nephew just called from there in Guard and profits here every dial-up). She is Morrocco's ambassador and James Baker is Kerr mcGhee's chair for Morrocco's newly annexed west sahara oil wells.
Those 2 were big names in holding back the hostages until election day. They were big in the Iran-raq wars as well.

There's a fine line between genius and insanity. I have erased this line.
