Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has landed a spot as a distinguished fellow at the conservative Hudson Institute – providing him an office and policy platform should he decide to launch a run for the White House in 2024. The potential Republican field was thrown into disarray following the Jan. 6 MAGA riot in the Capitol – with President Donald Trump not ruling out a return to power, even as the Senate prepares to try him on incitement of insurrection. Pompeo served as Trumps CIA Director an...

4.0KSHARES “Facts,” the English philosopher and writer Aldous Huxley once observed, “don’t cease to exist because they are ignored.” Yet, in his recently released memoir, A Promised Land, Barack Obama both ignores and omits key facts about the Middle East. In particular, the former president gets relevant Israeli history wrong. Perhaps most disturbing, however, is Obama’s tendency to minimize Palestinian terrorism. For example, he refers to Hamas as merely a “Palestinian resistan...

Person i blame is president obama and not president bush. >> when it comes to blame, 50% say it is president bush, and 50% say it is president obamas. president obama said he was against the war from the start, and when he ran for president he made an important pledge. when i am commander in chief, i will set a new goal on day one. i will end this war. >> less than four years later, and a little slower than he had originally hoped, the last american combat soldier left iraq. >> bush administrati...

And back in 2006, it was george w. bush who put maliki in office in the first place, so does bush bear the blame? richard clarke made a point earlier on in which he tells us what he thinks. >> fit werent for the american invasion of iraq, and the subsequent disbanding of the iraqi army by the united states, there would be no isis. isis is a direct outgrowth of the american invasion. >> but clarkes former colleague douglas feith sticks to his guns. if today, you knew what you knew back then about...

>> and the false prewar intelligence that led to war. his office was tasked with looking at intelligence and some which the cia did not deem credible. >> good morning. >> the problem with the cia is that it is sloppy over and over again. >> remember the intelligence that george bush asked for on the night of 9/11. >> the president asked me, saddam, saddam, and go back and look at everything. find out whether or not saddam was involved. >> doug feith found out what the president was asking for. a...

The country. >> obama official anthony blinken says there is a slight hitch in feiths argument, it was not obama who set the withdrawal. >> in 2008, president bush signed an agreement with iraq providing that the united states and its forces would leave iraq by 2011. >> many in the process say that the united states did not try hard enough, because in the end, president obama wanted to get out. >> at the end of the day, the iraqis wanted us out. that is what happened. >> those iraqis were led by...

Consent to an interview, but doug feith is in this film, and he says some very revealing things. the purpose after 9/11 was to shock the sponsors of state terrorism to get them to change their policies. thats his quote in this film. now -- >> which isnt what they told the public. >> its not what they told the public, and it was not about changing policy as i think your last bite here will show because its very clear this was never about changing policies. >> this is what they will want to watch ...

These potential pretexts. u.s. discovered saddam connection to 9/11 attack or anthrax attacks. dispute over wmd inspections. start now thinking about inspection demands. in other words, start putting together the pretext. we didnt have a war. we didnt have a reason for a war. we were looking for a reason for a war. >> we didnt have a bona fide threat. at any time they were free to go to the public and say, you know what? this is what doug feith thinks, this is what we think, were not so sure, bu...

0 defeat the president. i disagreed with nearly everything the bush a administration did. i questioned the reasons we went to war, i criticized his tax cuts for the rich. i everybody led marches against his administration. but i meant with president bush. i always had respect for the presidency. when we met, it was always mr. president. he was not my choisz and he was certainly not one i supported. but you cant disrespect the office holder and then hope to get your person, the one you believe in...
