Back in 2007, I mentioned Gaubatz in connection with his important work uncovering the real story of WMD in Iraq,1 2 Gaubatz and his son deserve credit for courageously fighting the war on Islamic terrorism here at home. More recently, he hit the airwaves when he was kicked out of an ISNA conference [...]

What is rather sad is that we are never bombarded with articles and speeches by our Muslim brothers about the oppression and injustice committed by the West in Pakistan, Iraq, Afghanistan, Chechnya, Kashmir, Palestine, Somalia and elsewhere, nor do our speakers distinguish that whether it is the West doing all the killing directly or not, the bullets are funded and supplied by the Western powers....

JASON was asked whether a rare event can be predicted; specifically a weapons of mass destruction (WMD) event 1 . Their unclassified response: "...However, it is simply not possible to validate (evaluate) predictive models of rare events that have not occurred, and unvalidated [sic; invalidated] models cannot be relied upon. An additional difficulty is that rare event assessment is largely a question...

Politics in America means accepting thanks from all Americans. Who can question the sincerity of anyone's thanks? Bush made a joke about not finding the WMD, which was in very poor taste when you consider how many Americans died looking for them, including a friend of mine. My uncle said General MacArthur got thousands of Americans killed in the Southwest Pacific during WW2 for the sake of his own...

... alone, however, was insufficient. Military mobilization required a "consensus" belief in Iraqi WMD, Iraqi ties to Al Qaeda, Iraqi mobile biological weapons, Iraqi meetings in Prague, and so forth. Though all were false, those "facts" proved sufficient to induce an invasion of Iraq. Such agent provocateur operations typically include collateral incidents as pre-staging for the intended main event....

... would just make shit up and claim a bunch of retired Spooks-in-Chief had said them. Eureka!!! WMD in Iraq!!! Remember when Crazy Pete and Rick “Man on Dog” Santorum claimed that a few piles of canisters filled with now-inert chemical weapons were the WMDs we went to war to find? Yeah. I’d just leave it at that–but it bears mentioning that the pattern of the demagoging is the same as Crazy Pete...

Easy, PeopleDon't let Fort Hood get under our skin. He was a loon with gun. A bad tv movie.9/11 worked because it was a surprise. It won't work again. The only threat these douche-bags truly pose is the WMD angle. And if we just sat it out there's a 50/50 chance they'd kill themselves before using it on us.We understand these forces better - through the painful lessons in Iraq and

By way of a couple of quick updates on the Iraq Inquiry... Yesterday, on Comment is Free, I did a blog piece on Thursday's seminar, hosted by the Inquiry on the evolution of international policy up to 2003 . It seemed to me that the Inquiry members must now be in no doubt that the war was about regime change, not weapons of mass destruction (wmd). I suggested that if the Inquiry could get Tony Blair...

He is believed to have suggested to contacts in Pyongyang that he is considering the disclosure of his "national" nuclear program, but without divulging any details of cooperation with his North Korean and Iranian partners....
