Pentagon says, "Iraq Intel Manipulated by WH" - Now Who's the Liar, the Pentagon or President Bush ?

Answer 1

Both, the pentagon is part of the military industrial complex that Dwight Eisenhower warned the nation against and Bush is just a proven liar so the correct answer, if looked at in broad terms, is BOTH!

By the way when are we going to investigate on a National level the antics of the preferred vendor program the pentagon is allowing the tax payer to get ripped of on, or the number of mercenaries from companies like blackwater that are getting paid ten to one what the troops are getting to go fight this war for us?

Answer 2

A bipartisan answer.......
Let's analyze this question a little:

If you're leaning left, "manipulated" means cherry picking the intel in such a way as to promote your own agenda.

If you're leaning right, it means ignoring the trivial stuff and concentrating on the data that most threatens the nation and acting on it.

For instance - if two reports contradicted each other (one said, yep, Saddam's got WMDs but the other report said, nope, no evidence of WMDs) and in examining all of the input, we find there are 5 claiming WMDs and 3 claiming none - we would logically go with the 5. But in hindsight, it would be easy to say we ignored the truth and "manipulated" the data by assigning too much credibility to the incorrect reports. But in all fairness to the people who have to make the decision at the time - the prudent thing is to go with the scenario that presents an immediate threat to our nation rather than just hope that the other 3 reports are the correct ones.

Let's just be honest and hold our "he lied, they lied, everyone lied" accusations until we see the real data and how it was handled. If we're patient, I'm quite sure they'll be plenty of blame to go around.

Answer 3

ok. yet provided that data and debriefings of Iraqi Intelligence have shown a fairly significant relationship between al Qaeda and Iraq, then what's the subject? So Feith replace into certainly superb even on shaky intelligence? would desire to he no longer be congratulated then? Why would desire to he be castigated for being appropriate? Riddle me that. I additionally do no longer undergo in strategies Levin calling out Clinton relating to the "tens of hundreds" of Kosovars in mass graves that have been by no potential stumbled on, which replace right into a justification for his attack on Serb civilians. Or complaining relating to the shortcoming of evidence of WMD production on the aspirin production unit Clinton bombed in Sudan. yet I certainly have continually stumbled on such double standards element of the Democratic party platform.

Answer 4

Oh no not the Bush is a liar thing?! Gee, like who even cares?! How is saying the Bush is a liar going to improve anything or doesn't that matter to you?

Answer 5

President George W. Bush's uncle, who serves on the board of a U.S. defence contractor with over $100 million (52 million pounds) in business in Iraq, recently cashed in on some of that lucrative work, a government filing shows.

William H.T. "Bucky" Bush exercised options on 8,438 shares worth about $450,000 from St. Louis-based defence contractor Engineered Support Systems Inc. (ESSI), according to a January 18 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Since 2000, the president's uncle has been on the board of ESSI, whose work for the U.S. military in Iraq ranges from providing special armour for vehicles to providing telecommunications satellite equipment.Besides the Bush family and their long time family friends, the Saudi Royal Family benefiting from record oil prices with billions of record profits, Dubya's uncle is making millions on the war in Iraq. Will the electorate hold Dubya accountable?

Answer 6

look for all you that think this was a lie by the president to get us into a war. the intelligence we had came from all over the place including other countries intelligence agencies. a good portion of this was gathered during the Clinton administration. So for this all to be lies Pres. Bush would have had to convince the leaders of other nations, members of their intelligence agencies, and several members of the Democratic party to include Pres. Clinton to lie for him. You think he has the much power.

Answer 7

I would have to believe the Pentagon. Bush is a truth twister. He thinks the truth, the whole truth, nothing but the truth does not apply to him, because "his daddy and his daddy's daddy is rich".

BTW. it was Cheney. watch his eyes. he has liar's eyes.

Answer 8

Bush lied through his teeth. See my below article on the subject.

Answer 9

They said that 4 years ago!!!!!!!!

Why is our piece of sh!t Zionist/Corporate/Government propaganda machine (commonly known as the media) jut now talking about this?????

Oh wait a minute, I just answered my own question.

Answer 10

Both, but not on this particular question. Try the VP.& DOD big wigs named Feith., Wolfowitz, & Rumsfeld.
