Kissinger: U.S. Should Stay in Iraq for Now
Hague-bait Henry catapults the propaganda for the War Party again.

Former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger said Wednesday that Republicans and Democrats should forge bipartisan support for President Bush to bring stability to Iraq instead of arguing over the war.

"The fundamental fact is we cannot afford to leave that area under conditions that leave chaos," Kissinger told hundreds of business people at an annual meeting of the Little Rock Chamber of Commerce.

Terrorists cannot be disabled through traditional diplomatic means, said Kissinger, who was secretary of state and national security adviser under the administrations of Nixon and Ford. He retains substantial influence in foreign affairs, and continues to have close links to the Bush administration.

Kissinger, 82, urged compromise across political party lines and international boundaries.

10. I think it's quite telling
that this pronouncement from Ole Henry was made at a Chamber of Commerce. Of course we can't leave-there are too many contracts yet to be signed, too many pockets that need to be lined.

12. Lieberman would
agree. But then both were gung ho to go in there in the first place.

PS
What are we doing about REAL American security, as recently highlighted by Messrs Kean and Hamilton and the 9-11 Commission, e.g., if we had first responders who could communicate w/ one another, Katrina might have come out a little better and the next disaster could come out a whole lot better.

And we are pumping $100 million into Iraq on the backs of the poor?

I think we should send Messrs Kissinger and Lieberman to the M-East for good.
