Did anyone see Larry King the other night when Carter, our FORMER PRESIDENT said that the decision to invade Iraq was made BEFORE Bush got elected? I'm surprised no one mentioned this:
Encore Presentation: Interview with Former President Jimmy Carter
Aired November 13, 2005 - 21:00 ET
CARTER: "Well, I think the decision to go into Iraq as a war was made before Bush was elected President George W. Bush, and I think that it was before 9/11 because some of the top officials in his government now decided after the withdrawal of Iraqi forces from Kuwait under George Bush, Sr. that he should have gone all the way to Baghdad and have removed Saddam Hussein from power. So that decision was made by some of them long before George Bush even was elected."
Do you know what the implications are? Carter is saying that it really doesn't matter WHO is elected, that a military complex controls foreign policy. Whew.
