right now
I don't know how long I've been on DU and another place, but I remember sharing with many the conclusion that the invasion was planned and inevitable - that going to Congress and the UN was a sham. So, I don't feel as good as one would if they could shout out the famous words - I TOLD YOU SO! No, I am pained....because so many knew and could see what was going on - but our Dems leaders (most of them) could not. They played along with the charade. The only conclusion that can be reached from their vote is that they wanted this invasion because we can't be smarter than they are. Right? I don't buy the WMD excuse. If we knew, how could they not know? You all know who I mean because I have screamed out their names on DU for months...years?
I cannot read the memo right now...I have to wait and let the pain dissipate. Strangely, my human nature is in reverse...I've been angry all this time because so many allowed this to occur when they had the same clues and insights we had...it was there in the little announcements, opinions, and little feelers they put out....stuff that came out in the news that showed the positioning. Most of all, the rhetoric and prep work.
So, I'm too pained to read it right now. The release of this info is way too late in world history. How many of the spouses, parents, or children of the dead are going to read it in English and Arabic? Will they feel better? Add read it in Farsi, because pretty soon it's going to be them, the people who speak Farsi. The only hope for Iranians and maybe Syrians is time...we're nearing the shift time...when the economy has to magically improve and the dirt is swept under - we're coming up on the next election peak date.
Long live Paul Wellstone - First and last vote in the Senate was against Iraq War 1 and Iraq War 2. Good job, Paul. May your spirit live forever. Do some more good work for the survival of our country and our planet.
