intelligence sources say.... i always cringe when i hear those words by some dittohead. why? because, intel sources didn't say the right things before 9/11. intel got it ALL wrong on iraq... so why in God's name should i trust them now?

which leads me to only one answer: because it wasn't a massive intel failure at all. but rather the direction taken when there are 'failures' is exactly where some, who just happen to hold power of the most powerful nation on the planet, would like to be. evidence of that? the PNAC.
