Re: [Biofuel] Exclusive: Bush Plot To Bomb His Arab Ally
This news item was also shown on the BBC news last night (Tues 11/29), including a shot of David Keogh being arrested for leaking the information. This may help those who think the story is phony to rethink their opinion. Biofuel@sustainablelists.org wrote: http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article2.htm Exclusive: Bush Plot To Bomb His Arab Ally Madness of war memo By Kevin Maguire And Andy Lines 11/22/05 The Mirror -- -- PRESIDENT Bush planned to bomb Arab TV station al-Jazeera in friendly Qatar, a Top Secret No 10 memo reveals. But he was talked out of it at a White House summit by Tony Blair, who said it would provoke a worldwide backlash. A source said: There's no doubt what Bush wanted, and no doubt Blair didn't want him to do it. Al-Jazeera is accused by the US of fuelling the Iraqi insurgency. The attack would have led to a massacre of innocents on the territory of a key ally, enraged the Middle East and almost certainly have sparked bloody retaliation. A source said last night: The memo is explosive and hugely damaging to Bush. He made clear he wanted to bomb al-Jazeera in Qatar and elsewhere. Blair replied that would cause a big problem. There's no doubt what Bush wanted to do - and no doubt Blair didn't want him to do it. A Government official suggested that the Bush threat had been humorous, not serious. But another source declared: Bush was deadly serious, as was Blair. That much is absolutely clear from the language used by both men. Yesterday former Labour Defence Minister Peter Kilfoyle challenged Downing Street to publish the five-page transcript of the two leaders' conversation. He said: It's frightening to think that such a powerful man as Bush can propose such cavalier actions. I hope the Prime Minister insists this memo be published. It gives an insight into the mindset of those who were the architects of war. Bush disclosed his plan to target al-Jazeera, a civilian station with a huge Mid-East following, at a White House face-to-face with Mr Blair on April 16 last year. At the time, the US was launching an all-out assault on insurgents in the Iraqi town of Fallujah. Al-Jazeera infuriated Washington and London by reporting from behind rebel lines and broadcasting pictures of dead soldiers, private contractors and Iraqi victims. The station, watched by millions, has also been used by bin Laden and al-Qaeda to broadcast atrocities and to threaten the West. Al-Jazeera's HQ is in the business district of Qatar's capital, Doha. Its single-storey buildings would have made an easy target for bombers. As it is sited away from residential areas, and more than 10 miles from the US's desert base in Qatar, there would have been no danger of collateral damage. Dozens of al-Jazeera staff at the HQ are not, as many believe, Islamic fanatics. Instead, most are respected and highly trained technicians and journalists. To have wiped them out would have been equivalent to bombing the BBC in London and the most spectacular foreign policy disaster since the Iraq War itself. The No 10 memo now raises fresh doubts over US claims that previous attacks against al-Jazeera staff were military errors. In 2001 the station's Kabul office was knocked out by two smart bombs. In 2003, al-Jazeera reporter Tareq Ayyoub was killed in a US missile strike on the station's Baghdad centre. The memo, which also included details of troop deployments, turned up in May last year at the Northampton constituency office of then Labour MP Tony Clarke. Cabinet Office civil servant David Keogh, 49, is accused under the Official Secrets Act of passing it to Leo O'Connor, 42, who used to work for Mr Clarke. Both are bailed to appear at Bow Street court next week. Mr Clarke, who lost at the election, returned the memo to No 10. He said Mr O'Connor had behaved perfectly correctly. Neither Mr O'Connor or Mr Keogh were available. No 10 did not comment.

I'm angry that we have made a hash of the war in Iraq and alieniated the US from the world community in the process. I'm livid about our energy policy. But I don't understand what is wrong with considering all options in war. This one was (wisely) discarded. Maybe it should not have made it up the to the president (ie been shot down at a lower level). Had he gone through with it, then yes, very bad decision.

Re: [Biofuel] exclusive: Bush Plot To Bomb His Arab Ally
That's why people are upset; those in the know are even more upset. I worked on a Post Reconstruction Database that would have served as a blueprint for what to do after the war. The Bush Admin. told us point-blank to stuff it. Did not want to hear it, did not want hear about it. THE CURRENT SITUATION IN IRAQ IS CONSCIOUSLY, WITH DELIBERATE FORETHOUGHT, COMPLETELY SELF-INFLICTED. See: http://www.cooperativeresearch.org/entity.jsp?entity=scott_feil August 1, 2002 http://www.cooperativeresearch.org/item.jsp?item=complete_timeline_of_the_2003_invasion_of_iraq_409 / Events Leading to Iraq Invasion http://www.cooperativeresearch.org/timeline.jsp?timeline=complete_timeline_of_the_2003_invasion_of_iraq/ A panel of experts on Iraq warns the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that administering Iraq after the toppling of Saddam's government will be expensive and difficult. The panel says that “there are no obvious successors to Saddam Hussein and that the Bush administration should be prepared to help install and protect a pro-American government if it decides to topple him—a proposition, they added, that would be long and expensive,” the New York Times reports. “Nearly all the experts argued that setting up a stable, pro-Western government in Baghdad would require a huge infusion of aid and a long term commitment of American troops to maintain peace.” [New York Times, 8/2/02 http://www.cooperativeresearch.org/archive/2002/nytimes080202.htm] Phebe Marr, a professor from the National Defense University who has written prolifically on Iraq, tells the panel, “If the US is going to take the responsibility for removing the current leadership, it should assume that it cannot get the results it wants on the cheap.” Scott Feil, a retired Army colonel who studies postwar reconstruction programs, says that 75,000 troops will be needed in Iraq to stabilize the country after Saddam is removed from power. He estimates that such a deployment will cost in excess of $16 billion per year. After the first 12 months, the colonel says that the force could be reduced in number, possibly to as low as 5,000, though this military presence would have to be maintained for at least another five years. In contrast, Caspar W. Weinberger, the secretary of defense under President Ronald Reagan argues that the United States will not need to undertake a major effort in rebuilding Iraq. [New York Times, 8/2/02 http://www.cooperativeresearch.org/archive/2002/nytimes080202.htm] I'm angry that Bush is rolling back environmental policy in favor of an extract and consume policy. I'm angry that we have made a hash of the war in Iraq and alieniated the US from the world community in the process. I'm livid about our energy policy. But I don't understand what is wrong with considering all options in war. This one was (wisely) discarded. Maybe it should not have made it up the to the president (ie been shot down at a lower level). Had he gone through with it, then yes, very bad decision.

(That thing is so ugly - you're going to burn it all this year, I hope.) 5. My now late and lamented 1988 Isuzu Trooper. (Are you going to KEEP that thing?) 6. My lawn. I hate grass. I won't put weed killer on it. I just have to figure out a non-grass front yard. 7. Cedar shake on my house. (You're not going to leave that wood on there, are you? It's so ugly.

Re: [Biofuel] exclusive: Bush Plot To Bomb His Arab Ally
Tom, So what am I missing? Could it be the fact that the commander in chief was so serious about it and he had to be talked out of it by the leader of another nation? That it was but a handful of syllables from becoming a reality? That this is the type of mind in control of an arsenal of nuclear weapons? That it's the same mindset that kept planned for war in advance of and in lieu of accurate intelligence, even to the point of courting the UN while having already calculated a departure date?

Re: [Biofuel] exclusive: Bush Plot To Bomb His Arab Ally
Hello Tom So what am I missing? Maybe that you think it's a war, but the rest of the world sees it as an illegal invasion and criminal occupation. How could destroying an independent news agency in a friendly country and killing its journalists and staff possibly be considered an option??? Millions and millions of people worldwide have and are protesting very loudly against your war, they're giving you an even worse press than Al Jazeera, should bombing them too also be considered an option? Or should it avoided on the grounds that it would be a very bad decision? There's a lot of material in the Biofuel list archives, from very early on, that Americans who think it's a war object to probably just as much as they object to Al Jazeera (their objections are also in the archives) (and so is Al Jazeera), and it hasn't stopped yet. I hope you'll see the option of bombing us as a very bad decision too. How about this: The war dead. Who did you think of - 2,000 of our boys? Most other people think that means the 100,000-odd Iraqis killed, and your boys are the killers. There might be some sympathy for them, everyone knows they're just dupes, cheap cannon fodder, discard-after-use, but more likely it would be We told you so, you didn't want to listen. And meanwhile everybody forgets about Afghanistan. (Your government even forgot to include it in the budget after promising not to just walk away this time like they did last time.) It's not that it's exactly anything new, any of this, it's been going on for 60 years now and more, while Americans turned a blind eye to what Washington did abroad with their tax money. http://www.mail-archive.com/biofuel@sustainablelists.org/msg45962.html Re: [Biofuel] Confessions of an Economic Hit Man http://infoarchive.net/sgroup/BIOFUEL/41438/ An Interview with William Blum http://members.aol.com/superogue/homepage.htm Rogue State: A Guide to the World's Only Superpower, by William Blum http://members.aol.com/bblum6/American_holocaust.htm Killing Hope: U.S. Military and CIA Interventions Since World War II, by William Blum http://members.aol.com/bblum6/American_holocaust.htm The American Holocaust Time to stop.

Re: [Biofuel] Exclusive: Bush Plot To Bomb His Arab Ally
I did not mean in the realm of discourse on this list; I meant that the current US administration is dragging the US and a large part of the world down with it. Bust does not have a mandate from 48.5% of the populace (or whatever - tho' I think both elections were fishy), and last I checked the The coalition of the willing was small and had dwindled to tiny. Keith Addison wrote: Mike, Are they really? Then all the more reason to let them evidence their own stupidity and ignorance. There's a biblical verse that I've always been partial to. It's My people perish for lack of knowledge. They did then (although it refers more towards spiritual knowledge) and they still do now. Let others display how patently little they know and oddly enough everyone becomes a little bit wiser.. Todd, if that were true only one time out of ten I'd still be inclined to say the 10th time makes the other nine times worth it. But I'd remind you of a couple of things, two list threads in particular from a bit more than a year ago, I'm sure you'll remember them: Oil and Israel, and Fahrenheit 9/11. Even if you don't remember them, I sure as hell do. Far from the only examples to be sure, but stark enough to make the point. Real-world communities and virtual ones are not the same, the same behaviour can have very different results, and the same people can behave very differently. In a virtual community, what's more likely is that the Lowest Common Denominator factor will rule if it's allowed to, and the list community itself becomes a little bit dumber. Or a lot dumber. We've seen that enough times too. Not here. It's highly probable that they'd take us with them. All best Keith Todd Swearingen But they are taking us with them.

But he was talked out of it at a White House summit by Tony Blair, who said it would provoke a worldwide backlash. A source said: There's no doubt what Bush wanted, and no doubt Blair didn't want him to do it. Al-Jazeera is accused by the US of fuelling the Iraqi insurgency. The attack would have led to a massacre of innocents on the territory of a key ally, enraged the Middle East and almost certainly have sparked bloody retaliation.

There's no doubt what Bush wanted to do - and no doubt Blair didn't want him to do it. A Government official suggested that the Bush threat had been humorous, not serious.

Yesterday former Labour Defence Minister Peter Kilfoyle challenged Downing Street to publish the five-page transcript of the two leaders' conversation. He said: It's frightening to think that such a powerful man as Bush can propose such cavalier actions. I hope the Prime Minister insists this memo be published. It gives an insight into the mindset of those who were the architects of war. Bush disclosed his plan to target al-Jazeera, a civilian station with a huge Mid-East following, at a White House face-to-face with Mr Blair on April 16 last year. At the time, the US was launching an all-out assault on insurgents in the Iraqi town of Fallujah. Al-Jazeera infuriated Washington and London by reporting from behind rebel lines and broadcasting pictures of dead soldiers, private contractors and Iraqi victims. The station, watched by millions, has also been used by bin Laden and al-Qaeda to broadcast atrocities and to threaten the West. Al-Jazeera's HQ is in the business district of Qatar's capital, Doha. Its single-storey buildings would have made an easy target for bombers. As it is sited away from residential areas, and more than 10 miles from the US's desert base in Qatar, there would have been no danger of collateral damage. Dozens of al-Jazeera staff at the HQ are not, as many believe, Islamic fanatics. Instead, most are respected and highly trained technicians and journalists. To have wiped them out would have been equivalent to bombing the BBC in London and the most spectacular foreign policy disaster since the Iraq War itself. The No 10 memo now raises fresh doubts over US claims that previous attacks against al-Jazeera staff were military errors. In 2001 the station's Kabul office was knocked out by two smart bombs. In 2003, al-Jazeera reporter Tareq Ayyoub was killed in a US missile strike on the station's Baghdad centre. The memo, which also included details of troop deployments, turned up in May last year at the Northampton constituency office of then Labour MP Tony Clarke. Cabinet Office civil servant David Keogh, 49, is accused under the Official Secrets Act of passing it to Leo O'Connor, 42, who used to work for Mr Clarke. Both are bailed to appear at Bow Street court next week. Mr Clarke, who lost at the election, returned the memo to No 10. He said Mr O'Connor had behaved perfectly correctly.

Re: [Biofuel] Exclusive: Bush Plot To Bomb His Arab Ally
Looks like our Keith is onto something: Paper Says Bush Talked of Bombing Arab TV Network By Kevin Sullivan and Walter Pincus Washington Post Foreign Service Wednesday, November 23, 2005; Page A14 LONDON, Nov. 22 -- President Bush expressed interest in bombing the headquarters of the Arabic television network al-Jazeera during a White House conversation with Prime Minister Tony Blair in April 2004, a British newspaper reported Tuesday. The Daily Mirror report was attributed to two anonymous sources describing a classified document they said contained a transcript of the two leaders' talk. One source is quoted as saying Bush's alleged remark concerning the network's headquarters in Qatar was humorous, not serious, while the other said, Bush was deadly serious. javascript:void(popitup('http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/photo/postphotos/orb/asection/2005-11-23/index.html?imgId=PH2005112201919imgUrl=/photo/2005/11/22/PH2005112201919.html',650,850)) A frame grab from Abu Dhabi television shows people carrying Al-Jazeera television correspondent Tareq Ayub in a blanket after he was killed in a US missile strike on the station's Baghdad offices 08 April 2003.

But, the diplomat said, it was foolish for someone to write it down, and now it will be a story for days. We are not interested in dignifying something so outlandish and inconceivable with a response, White House spokesman Scott McClellan told the Associated Press in an e-mail. Al-Jazeera has frequently aired recorded statements from al Qaeda figures. Bush administration officials have contended that through that type of broadcasting the network often serves as a conduit for terrorist propaganda. In 2003, during the invasion of Iraq, a U.S. missile hit the network's office in Baghdad, killing a correspondent. U.S. officials called the incident an accident. In 2001, American bombs exploded in its bureau in Kabul, Afghanistan. Washington said the targeting officers did not know that the site was an office of the television service, believing instead that it was used by al Qaeda. A former senior U.S. intelligence official said that it was clear the White House saw al-Jazeera as a problem, but that although the CIA's clandestine service came up with plans to counteract it, such as planting people on its staff, it never received permission to proceed. Bombing in Qatar was never contemplated, the former official said. A spokesman for Blair's office declined to comment on grounds that the document is part of a criminal investigation. Two civil servants have been charged with violating Britain's Official Secrets Act for allegedly disclosing the document. According to a source quoted in the Daily Mail, Blair told Bush that bombing al-Jazeera would cause a big problem. The source was also quoted as saying: There's no doubt what Bush wanted to do -- and no doubt Blair didn't want him to do it. The network is based in downtown Doha, the capital of Qatar, a Persian Gulf state that is closely allied with the United States and has allowed U.S. forces to base their military headquarters there during the Iraq war. Al-Jazeera, in a statement released Tuesday evening, said it was trying to verify the newspaper's account and called on Blair's office to clear up the issue. If the report is correct, then this would be both shocking and worrisome not only to al-Jazeera but to media

Todd Swearingen http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article2.htm Exclusive: Bush Plot To Bomb His Arab Ally Madness of war memo By Kevin Maguire And Andy Lines 11/22/05 The Mirror -- -- PRESIDENT Bush planned to bomb Arab TV station al-Jazeera in friendly Qatar, a Top Secret No 10 memo reveals. But he was talked out of it at a White House summit by Tony Blair, who said it would provoke a worldwide backlash. A source said: There's no doubt what Bush wanted, and no doubt Blair didn't want him to do it. Al-Jazeera is accused by the US of fuelling the Iraqi insurgency. The attack would have led to a massacre of innocents on the territory of a key ally, enraged the Middle East and almost certainly have sparked bloody retaliation. A source said last night: The memo is explosive and hugely damaging to Bush. He made clear he wanted to bomb al-Jazeera in Qatar and elsewhere. Blair replied that would cause a big problem. There's no doubt what Bush wanted to do - and no doubt Blair didn't want him to do it. A Government official suggested that the Bush threat had been humorous, not serious. But another source declared: Bush was deadly serious, as was Blair. That much is absolutely clear from the language used by both men. Yesterday former Labour Defence Minister Peter Kilfoyle challenged Downing Street to publish the five-page transcript of the two leaders' conversation. He said: It's frightening to think that such a powerful man as Bush can propose such cavalier actions. I hope the Prime Minister insists this memo be published. It gives an insight into the mindset of those who were the architects of war. Bush disclosed his plan to target al-Jazeera, a civilian station with a huge Mid-East following, at a White House face-to-face with Mr Blair on April 16 last year. At the time, the US was launching an all-out assault on insurgents in the Iraqi town of Fallujah. Al-Jazeera infuriated Washington and London by reporting from behind rebel lines and broadcasting pictures of dead soldiers, private contractors and Iraqi victims. The station, watched by millions, has also been used by bin Laden and al-Qaeda to broadcast atrocities and to threaten the West. Al-Jazeera's HQ is in the business district of Qatar's capital, Doha. Its single-storey buildings would have made an easy target for bombers. As it is sited away from residential areas, and more than 10 miles from the US's desert base in Qatar, there would have been no danger of collateral damage.

The Daily Mirror reported that Bush spoke of targeting Al-Jazeera's headquarters in Doha, Qatar, when he met Blair at the White House on April 16, 2004. The Bush administration has regularly accused Al-Jazeera of being nothing more than a mouthpiece for anti-American sentiments. The Daily Mirror attributed its information to unidentified sources. http://www.bradenton.com/mld/bradenton/news/local/13236822.htm It is alleged that Keogh, who has been charged under section 5 of the Official Secrets Act, sent the memo to O'Connor sometime between April 16 and May 28 of last year. O'Connor, also charged, then took the document to his boss, Clarke, who dutifully handed it back to the government.

Todd Swearingen http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article2.htm Exclusive: Bush Plot To Bomb His Arab Ally Madness of war memo By Kevin Maguire And Andy Lines 11/22/05 The Mirror -- -- PRESIDENT Bush planned to bomb Arab TV station al-Jazeera in friendly Qatar, a Top Secret No 10 memo reveals. But he was talked out of it at a White House summit by Tony Blair, who said it would provoke a worldwide backlash. A source said: There's no doubt what Bush wanted, and no doubt Blair didn't want him to do it. Al-Jazeera is accused by the US of fuelling the Iraqi insurgency. The attack would have led to a massacre of innocents on the territory of a key ally, enraged the Middle East and almost certainly have sparked bloody retaliation. A source said last night: The memo is explosive and hugely damaging to Bush. He made clear he wanted to bomb al-Jazeera in Qatar and elsewhere. Blair replied that would cause a big problem. There's no doubt what Bush wanted to do - and no doubt Blair didn't want him to do it. A Government official suggested that the Bush threat had been humorous, not serious. But another source declared: Bush was deadly serious, as was Blair. That much is absolutely clear from the language used by both men. Yesterday former Labour Defence Minister Peter Kilfoyle challenged Downing Street to publish the five-page transcript of the two leaders' conversation. He said: It's frightening to think that such a powerful man as Bush can propose such cavalier actions. I hope the Prime Minister insists this memo be published. It gives an insight into the mindset of those who were the architects of war. Bush disclosed his plan to target al-Jazeera, a civilian station with a huge Mid-East following, at a White House face-to-face with Mr Blair on April 16 last year. At the time, the US was launching an all-out assault on insurgents in the Iraqi town of Fallujah. Al-Jazeera infuriated Washington and London by reporting from behind rebel lines and broadcasting pictures of dead soldiers, private contractors and Iraqi victims. The station, watched by millions, has also been used by bin Laden and al-Qaeda to broadcast atrocities and to threaten the West. Al-Jazeera's HQ is in the business district of Qatar's capital, Doha. Its single-storey buildings would have made an easy target for bombers. As it is sited away from residential areas, and more than 10 miles from the US's desert base in Qatar, there would have been no danger of collateral damage. Dozens of al-Jazeera staff at the HQ are not, as many believe, Islamic fanatics. Instead, most are respected and highly trained technicians and journalists. To have wiped them out would have been equivalent to bombing the BBC in London and the most spectacular foreign policy disaster since the Iraq War itself. The No 10 memo now raises fresh doubts over US claims that previous attacks against al-Jazeera staff were military errors. In 2001 the station's Kabul office was knocked out by two smart bombs. In 2003, al-Jazeera reporter Tareq Ayyoub was killed in a US missile strike on the station's Baghdad centre. The memo, which also included details of troop deployments, turned up in May last year at the Northampton constituency office of then Labour MP Tony Clarke. Cabinet Office civil servant David Keogh, 49, is accused under the Official Secrets Act of passing it to Leo O'Connor, 42, who used to work for Mr Clarke. Both are bailed to appear at Bow Street court next week. Mr Clarke, who lost at the election, returned the memo to No 10. He said Mr O'Connor had behaved perfectly correctly. Neither Mr O'Connor or Mr Keogh were available. No 10 did not comment.

Re: [Biofuel] Exclusive: Bush Plot To Bomb His Arab Ally
Hey Keith, Just let him stew over his own statement and mis-beliefs. You see, people who make such remarks generally have nothing to back up their words. But their hope is that others will say nothing and just let their words stand, allowing a little more doubt to be spread amongst the few gullible or uninformed people who might still remain. It's guerrilla tactics at best, knowing full well that the armory has been empty for a very long time and that the last roll of hard tack was just washed down with stale water. In this case, it's he who some sympathy should be extended towards. He knows a sinking, worm-ridden ship when he sees one. Unfortunately he's too proud to admit that he's been duped all along and still clings to some hope that if he keeps his eyes closed tight for long enough that reality will somehow be different. We should all wish him well with his folly on this holiday, as his rude awakening is inevitably just around the corner.
