The Corner Translates Henry Kissinger and yup he thinks democratization is dumb too.

A long time ago in another life when I labored under the illusion that I could make a difference I wrote an over long but fact filled piece that got about 10 hits. Democracy a fools errand or our only way out? Jeane Kirkpatrick responds In this article I set about tearing up the idea that Democracy was some sort of a good idea. The idea for centering the article around Jeanne Kirkpatrick came to me after her passing while I was catching up on her brilliance as our UN Ambassador. Ronald Reagan knew how to pick them. In the particular piece that caught Reagan’s eye was a absolutely damning argument against forcing democracy onto everyone. You can read this wonderful article for yourself here.

Pentagon looking for ass with both hands comes up empty…Saddam’s Connections to Al Qaeda IS a Slam Dunk!

UPDATED: Ed Morrissey at Hot Air talking about the parts of the Pentagon report that were not covered in the Executive Summary.

Well it is just about time to publish this again seeing how the Pentagon insists on being dumb with reports like this one.  Next thing you know our government will be declaring that Islam is the religion of peace…oops.

Plame, Wilson, Saddam, Nuclear Weapons, Yellowcake, Corruption, CIA on the Take…oh my.

UPDATES BELOW!

Just spent a good 2 hours reading a lot of terrific posts on the Plame Affair, to say this stuff is explosive would be like saying a 10 Megaton Nuclear device is sort of loud. These are the people you need to be reading to find out the truth on what is going on. AJ over at Strata-Sphere, MacRanger at Macsmind, Sue in the comments section and a mysterious and brilliant commentator at Free-Republic with the Nom de Guerre of Fedora all of these folks have the ability to sift through mountainous volumes of information and like the Data Miners from ABLE DANGER pull out the information that brings sense out of chaos.

Why would President Bush’s administration attempt to put the lid on ABLE DANGER.

UPDATED AND A BUMP See below!

One of the most frustrating aspects of the ABLE DANGER scandal has been the insidious set of roadblocks that have been set in front of the investigation at nearly every turn. Some roadblocks have been crude and easily surmounted like the initial denial that the 9/11 Commission had even heard of ABLE DANGER. But the most effective roadblocks have consisted of classic attempts at discrediting the sources, vague rumors implying dishonesty as was attempted with LtC Shaffer, confusing questions attempting divert the investigation into dead ends, outright misquoting in attempts to discredit sources and to make them appear to change their stories, basically the entire playbook has been thrown at killing this story. One has to wonder exactly why? Is it simply that no one wants the 9/11 Commission to be absolutely and completely discredited?

Problems with the Timeline brings the Crop Duster Anthrax coincidences back into play.

One of the people I respect the most as a source is Edward Jay Epstein who has gotten far more right than wrong. But as we can see here if the timeline moves on Atta’s first visit to the United States then Mr. Epstein is going to have a hard time sustaining this position. Indeed its probably just a matter of time before he is forced to admit that our depending on the INS and the testimony of 2 Terrorists for the facts on when Atta first came to the States was unwise. ABLE DANGER is turning over a bunch of things we thought we knew.

Why was Atta singled out as significant by ABLE DANGER

Its being reported that the information that Able Danger pulled up on Atta came from looking into the Blind Sheik Rahman. Boy if I was asking questions I think it might be pretty interesting to ask the Able Danger folks.

Where was Hani Hanjour back in 1995? Do you have any evidence that he was already researching or even taking flying lessons back then?
