Graham Claims Iraq Plan Preceded Terror War
Monday, September 06, 2004

WASHINGTON — A former Senate Intelligence Committee chairman asserted Sunday that the general who ran the war in Afghanistan said more than a year before the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq (search) that his resources were being shifted in preparation for taking on Saddam Hussein.

Sen. Bob Graham (search), D-Fla., contends that just months into combat in Afghanistan, Gen. Tommy Franks (search) also told him that fighting terrorism in Somalia, Yemen and elsewhere should take priority over invading Iraq.....

I don't think anyone really cares any more (well, I do).

it is just a twisting of words. We have had plans and people in place for invading all our enemies for many years. Why did they think we had troops all over the world...Korea, Japan, Germany, England, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, etc.....Would we be so stupid as to not plan for their use as necessary? Especially in Iraq's case since they were violating the terms of their last surrender and shot at our aircraft daily?

the way fint loves to shrill for the bush adminstration it makes me wonder if his new hundred hour a week job is getting paid to polute OT boards like this one.

It is the same job I had before...nothing new Could you deliver a Peperoni pizza tonight? You sure are shrill since Bush's lead has gone to double digits. Might hurt tips!
