BREAKING: Declassified Documents Showed A Need For More Troops In 1999 And A Democratic Iraq "Not Feasible" (Updated and bumped)

(I am bumping this story back to the top as it is rather significant and now the mainstream media is starting to report on it. Just remember - you heard it here first lol) 

A new document has been unclassified through a FOIA request by the National Security Archive.

A series of war games held in 1999 specifically to anticipate problems following an invasion of Iraq assumed a deployment of 400,000 troops to maintain order, seal borders and provide for other security needs. But the games, known as Desert Crossing, were apparently ignored by the Defense Department. When CENTCOM commander Gen. Anthony Zinni, after his retirement, advised planners to refer back to Desert Crossing as they prepared for the 2003 invasion, the response reportedly was, "Never heard of it."

Now, seven years later, documentation on preparations for the games and detailed After Action records have surfaced in response to a Freedom of Information Act request by the National Security Archive, which is posting the materials on its Web site today.

This is very damaging to the administration and Pentagon. It also supports the claims by General Shinseki regarding the higher level of troops needed. Even more damming is the assessment of dealing with Iraq after the topple of Saddam:

And We Got Another One.

How many more people must come forward before people start to listen? Here is the latest-

A CIA official who had a top role during the run-up to the Iraqi war charges the White House with ignoring intelligence that said there were no weapons of mass destruction or an active nuclear program in Iraq.

The former highest ranking CIA officer in Europe, Tyler Drumheller, also says that while the intelligence community did give the White House some bad intelligence, it also gave the White House good intelligence — which the administration chose to ignore.

Drumheller talks to 60 Minutes correspondent Ed Bradley in his first television interview this Sunday, April 23 at 7 p.m. ET/PT.

Drumheller, who retired last year, says the White House ignored crucial information from a high and credible source. The source was Iraq's foreign minister, Naji Sabri, with whom U.S. spies had made a deal.

When CIA Director George Tenet delivered this news to the president, the vice president and other high ranking officials, they were excited — but not for long.

"[The source] told us that there were no active weapons of mass destruction programs," says Drumheller. "The [White House] group that was dealing with preparation for the Iraq war came back and said they were no longer interested. And we said 'Well, what about the intel?' And they said 'Well, this isn't about intel anymore. This is about regime change.' "

George Bush's New Job - Weatherman

Posted 6/10/05 at 5:51pm by jamie

Why should George Bush look into a job as a weather man? Well he has a knack
for dealing with the public, but most importantly, he is wrong more than right.

We all know by now that in the months leading up to September 11, the
President received intelligence that Osama was planning on attacking. Some
intelligence even suggested the use of airplanes as a weapon. But yet our leader
failed to act upon this, and dismissed these reports.

Fast forward a few months. George Bush receives intelligence that Saddam has
restarted his WMD programs, and tends to use it against the United States.
George now feels to even tell the people of the country and the world about
this. Furthermore he feels the need to go to war because of these reports.

So what is the problem here. Simple. The first reports turned out to be true
and over 3,000 people lost their lives because of our President's failure to
respond. The second reports turn out to be false, and lead to over 1700 of our
soldiers dying.

So our great President is batting 0 for 2 on interpreting intelligence
reports, and we have lost over 5,000 lives because of it. This is a terrible
track record and cries for regime change here at home. I put some of the blood
of all those lives lost on the hands of our President. He has failed, and failed
miserably. He could of saved all these lives but instead acted on what he felt
would be better for him and his financial interests and allowed all these poor
people to die.

 If you ask me George Bush is nothing more than a cold hearted killer.
Even more cold heated than the BK killer or Jeffrey Dahmer. Those people acted
on a sick lust for death. George acted on greed. Those mass killers performed
the acts themselves to satisfy their needs. George let others commit the acts
because he is to scared to do his own dirty work.
