How does this make war more likely ?

As I think the answer is that he won’t kowtow to the Neocon agenda, I have to also anticipate the bad news that Shrub has less than a year in office – so if he wants to launch the bomb he has to do it in the next 9 months (and does he feel the pressure building that he has to find an excuse NOW

Their motto must be create fear and live in fear!

Conspiracy and treason are not though.

The New York Times reports that Freedom’s Watch is working with the American Enterprise Institute to lobby for war with Iran. “‘If Hitler’s warnings were heeded when he wrote Mein Kampf he could have been stopped,’ said Bradley Blakeman, 49, the president of Freedom’s Watch and a former deputy assistant to Mr. Bush. … The idea for Freedom’s Watch was hatched in March at the winter meeting of the Republican Jewish Coalition in Manalapan, Fla., where Vice President Dick Cheney was the keynote speaker. … One benefactor, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said the group was hoping to raise as much as $200 million by November 2008. Raising big money ‘will be easy,’ the benefactor said, adding that several of the founders each wrote a check for $1 million. … Since the group is organized as a tax-exempt organization, it does not have to reveal its donors

From their web site:

‘AEI’s operations are financed by donations from corporations, foundations, and individuals and by investment earnings from an internal endowment.’

In comes the tax-exempt money and out comes the propaganda poop.

Saw “Rendition” yesterday. The deleted scenes (DVD) fill in the blanks. Innocent man picked up and tortured by mistake.
