There was at the time doubt within the intelligence community about key aspects of Bush’s case for the war: the aluminum tubes, the allegation that Saddam had sought uranium in Niger, the whereabouts of any of Iraq’s supposed chemical weapons, those "massive stockpiles"

[Care2 News Network] Israel's Worst Fears - Care2 News Network: Despite the predictable accusation of anti-Semitism and what have you, it is time to associate in the public mind the Zionist ideology with the by now familiar historical landmarks of the land: the ethnic cleansing of 1948, the oppression of the Palestinians in Israel during the days of the military rule, the brutal occupation of the West Bank and now the massacre of Gaza. Very much as the Apartheid ideology explained the oppressive policies of the South African government, this ideology -- in its most consensual and simplistic variety -- allowed all the Israeli governments in the past and the present to dehumanize the Palestinians wherever they are and strive to destroy them.

[The Daily Beast - Blogs and Stories] Cheney's Real Enemy Is Bush - Page 1 - The Daily Beast: It’s almost as if there have been three presidencies since 9/11: 1) The Cheney administration (2001-2003 or 2004), in which the vice president—aided by his old friend Donald Rumsfeld, and his key aides Scooter Libby and David Addington—got Bush to pursue a war on terror largely outside the law. 2) The Bush administration (2004-2009), in which Bush, aided by Rice, Robert Gates, chief of staff Joshua Bolton, and the rulings of the supreme court, reign in Cheney and some of his policies.
