National Intelligence Estimate: Because Of Iraq, Bush Is Losing The War
On Terror
Sun, 09/24/2006 - 6:33pm.
by Brent Budowsky
There should be a national outcry and national demand that the Senate
Intelligence Committee immediately release the full text of its latest
report, now being covered up until after the election, about whether
and when false statements were made by Administration officials
regarding pre-war Iraq intelligence.
Every Republican Senator now running for reelection should be
challenged in their hometown newspapers and in public meetings, and
should be opposed in November if they support the continued cover-up in
light of this latest bombshell from the National Intelligence Estimate.
Every Republican running for reelection in the House should be defeated
unless they publicly demand that the truth, the whole truth, and
nothing but the truth be told to the American people NOW, by both
Intelligence Committees.
The enormous implication of the National Intelligence Estimate recently
leaked boils down to this: because of the extreme and deadly
consequences of the Iraq War, President Bush is losing the war against
terror...
What is happening now, ladies and gentlemen, is that on a wide range of
issues tied to the grave mistakes of this war there is enormous,
widespread disagreement from our military commanders about the
direction and course of this policy, and from our intelligence leaders
and personnel, who flat-out believe that this war is hurting our
security, our country, and our war against terrorism.
In our America, it is the truth that sets us free.
It is high time, and long overdue, that our government tell the truth
to our people, and the truth is, that this policy has made our country
less safe, less secure, less strong, less respected in the world, and
that the greatest winners in this war are the terrorist recruiters and
the politicians in Washington who try to exploit a war, for political
gain, that hurts our troops, and as suggested by our intelligence
services, helps our enemy.
