Ahmad Chalabi, the lying wannabe who greatlypushed & helped Bushco lie us into war is dead. He had a heart attack on Tuesday without fulfilling his ambition of becoming President/King/Shah or whatever of Iraq with the blessing and support of the U.S.,

Long before the 9/11 WTC attack provided Bushco with an enhanced opportunity to start implementing the PNAC agenda in the middle east, Chalabi had already managed to get the U.S. to commit to our favorite pastime, regime change, in Iraq. Though the U.S. has been engaged in regime change under various names, this is the most dispassionate official public declaration that somebody was on our hit list that I recall offhand.

H.R.4655, the Iraq Liberation Act of 1998, was signed into law by President William J Clinton on 10/21/1998
