And you thought that the new Sec'y of Defense Robert Gates trip to Iraq was a "fact-finding" expedition designed so that he could contribute to the current Cheney/Bush pretense of discussions about where to go from here in Iraq.
Since former Bush family consigliere James Baker has become a thorn in the side of the current generation, they sent Gates to Iraq to assure that the execution of Saddam Hussein would take place with dispatch. What was the rush to execute him? You might ask. try this for an explanation:
From ConsortiumNews
"Like a blue-blood version of a Mob family with global reach, the Bushes have eliminated one more key witness to the important historical events that led the U.S. military into a bloody stalemate in Iraq and pushed the Middle East to the brink of calamity."
"...Bush has done his family's legacy a great service while also protecting secrets that could have embarrassed other senior U.S. government officials.
"He has silenced a unique witness to crucial chapters of the secret history that stretched from Iran's Islamic revolution in 1979 to the alleged American-Saudi "green light" for Hussein to attack Iran in 1980, through the eight years of the Iran-Iraq War during which high-ranking U.S. intermediaries, such as Donald Rumsfeld and Robert Gates, allegedly helped broker supplies of war materiel for Hussein."
