Oh really? Is that why a U.S military commission at Guantanamo Bay convicted this al Qaeda PR man

Oh really? Is that why a U.S military commission at Guantanamo Bay convicted this al Qaeda PR man, for

editing and disseminating this video in before his capture in 2004? Because al Qaeda was a ‘Johnny-

come-lately’ to the Palestinian cause? Maybe I missed something.

Furthermore, I think it is disingenuous to suggest that the longstanding partnership between the U.S

and Israel has not fomented extremism in the region, when it was a primary goal of the neoconservative

war planners to overthrow Saddam Hussein as part of a greater vision of “securing the realm” just a

decade ago. And whatever happened to ‘The road to peace in the Middle East goes through Baghdad’?

A little jingle that’s lost its juice, I guess, now that there is a pro-Iranian government in Iraq,

which no matter how the elections shake out, does not seem to be going anywhere.
