Not at all. I think this is ugly for the admin either way. Either way, having misplaced so much trust in him does not reflect well on Dubya's civilians at the Pentagon. Several of whom I absolutely despise.
But I'm not sure I believe their own "reasons" for turning on him. The Iran thing just doesn't add up for me. Did they really want us on another of their borders?
If it helps you or other lefties cut through to the heart of my message, pretend for a second that I'm not defending Bush and co. in any manner on this one. In fact, I'm suggesting that the Iranian story story truly does not make any sense. Maybe they are just trying to set him up as a scapegoat, knowing that he lied to them one way or another about the WMDs.
But it would otherwise be a huge risk for Iran, and I don't see them taking it.
Do they really want Americans around Najaf and Kufa and Basra and their oil terminals on the gulf etc. etc. etc.? They knew thats what it would mean if they provoked us into taking Saddam out.
