General Sir Mike Jackson tells it like it is:
The head of the British army during the Iraq invasion has said US post-war policy was "intellectually bankrupt".
Yes, that about sums it up. And Dubya still has the gall to tell us to "stay the course". Only a fool would do so. Over to you Gordon.

Take out the words "post war policy" and you have the entire situation covered.
Came across this lot
Came across this lot sometime ago,make off it what you will.
"Promis (Prosecutor's Management Information System) software was specifically re-engineered and mated with artificial intelligence during the 1980s for the purpose of tracking terrorists. It integrates diverse pieces of data and predicts the movement of terrorists based upon financial (e.g. credit card transactions), entries through various border checkpoints, car rentals and airline ticket purchases, stock speculation as well as the laundering of money and then sets off warning bells.
Bin Laden had bought large amounts of "shorts' before Sept. 11th to make a quick profit. The CIA must have noticed this.
Unknown individuals - with accurate foreknowledge of the attacks - had purchased an obvious and unusually large number of “put” options on United and American Airlines shortly before the attacks. Put options are essentially a bet that a stock’s price will fall abruptly. Investors have yet to claim $2.5 million in profits. Deutschebank also handled accounts worth about $100 million for Osama bin Laden's family"...

"U.S. government does not have enough hard evidence connecting Bin Laden to 9/11, how is it possible that it had enough evidence to invade Afghanistan to “smoke him out of his cave?” The federal government claims to have invaded Afghanistan to “root out” Bin Laden and the Taliban."..

"Now as US military action will replace the Taliban government and fresh crops will be planted in Afghanistan, the slack in cash flow will assuredly be replaced by dramatically increased opium production in Colombia; the revenues from that effort being needed to maintain the revenue streams into Wall Street. Prior to the WTC attacks, credible sources, including the U.S. government, the IMF, Le Monde and the U.S. Senate placed the amount of drug cash flowing into Wall Street and U.S. banks at around $250-$300 billion a year."

That's Jackson's latest
That's Jackson's latest position. It's not something he voiced at the time - when he was directly and personally involved. Jackson may be right, but let''s not forget that he's in the process of bookselling and recovering part of his large advance.
The military view of Jackson is certainly not very complimentary. He's regarded by many a a bit too self-obsessed. See:

"The video below illustrates how the U.S. government lied to its citizens. It also shows us what angry Americans do to respond to the government that should be protecting the American people not sending their young men and women to fight and die for their personal enrichment."

Why the f*ck should we take
Why the f*ck should we take any notice of this war dog? He's a complete hypocrite who kept his silence while his ranks were dying for, what he knew at the time, was nothing. But is happy to chirp away to line his own pockets. Disgraceful.
Many many people were saying the very same thing in 2003 and were vilified for it, are we to applaud this man, damn no! He should have resigned in 2003 and gone public if he had any morals whatsoever.
He should be in the dock along with his political masters facing trial for committing the most serious of all crimes.
When i looked at the vid
When i looked at the vid (posted above) on youtube, the list of 'related' vids begins, "how to solve the rubiks cube", with the second being "how to paint the mona-lisa with M$ paintbrush".
This is surely a from of censorship, i.e not showing truly related vids. One of the great things about youtube is finding a vid then hopping along to more based on the 'related' links, except of course when it is critical of US government. You can see similar manipulation of the 'related' links with anti-zionist vids.
This is similar to google's constant interfering with the viewing figures and ranking of anti-US government vids, as one example research 'Terrorstorm' where they have been screwing about with the figures constantly. This is widely documented on many sites with screen-shots etc.
Also Google is a US government site that was started by the CIA. You think I'm kidding? Larry Page and Sergi Brin are just stooges - The myth that these two guys started Google in a garage is laughable.
Better to use alternative search engine if you want to verify this for yourself, google does feature results, but you immediately notice that most of the ones shown are either dismissive, or have a load of follow-up comments which are obviously posted by shills.
Finally, one should always be wary of web-sites that do not carry syndicated advertising - like Blairwatch for example.

If you're referring to the Put Options placed on American and United Airlines then you have swallowed a load of BS because the US authorities have refused to reveal who the buyer was, although they claim the deals can't be traced - which is of course more BS.
Interestingly, even though this has been widely reported as a fact, a search on google for '911 airlines put options' puts at the top of the page an urban legend site which claims it to be false. More dodgey Google/CIA shenanigans no doubt.

Hardly surprising. Many big
Hardly surprising. Many big names are in deep do-do and scrambling like crazy to hide the fact, Goldman Sachs is up the spout big time, as is Banque BNP Paribas, and Barclay's appear to be having some difficulties too.
When the do-do hit's the fan the working and middle classes will have to pay-up for this. And as for Central Bank intervention, whatever happened to the deregulated free market's these financial giants screamed for the last two decades? Now they are screwed they welcome all this Government intervention - at tax payers expense of course. Bloody hypocrites.
I believe the US (and therefore global) economy is being deliberately run into the ground by the shadow world government so they can introduce the North American Union and the Amero. Nothing happens in this world by chance. It's all illusion and design.
I'm afraid it's too late.
I'm afraid it's too late. Gordon is already intellectually bankrupt. He thinks Thatcher was great:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2007/09/04/nbrown304.xml
No mention of the misery for poor people in UK and overseas; the love for Pinochet, Saddam, Suharto, Apartheid; the crooked arms deals with the fascist House of Saud; the dodgy sudden wealth of son Mark on the back of the arms deals; the crushing of trades unions (which still give money to Labour bizarrely); the inherent meanness of Thatcherism; the "no such thing as society" ethos; the fuck-the-poor policies; the enrichment of Tories on the boards of Privatized monopolies. Do you really "admire" her Gordon, you self-serving prig?
I think it's clear that Gordon isn't going to be very good for the world.

"However, Iran's president did not say that Israel should be wiped off the map. That interpretation of what Ahmedinejad said was based on a fraudulent translation of his speech. His comment was "Imam [Khomeini] said “This regime that is occupying Qods [Jerusalem] must be eliminated from the pages of history."
"Carrying the myth forward, G.W. Bush said, based entirely on the misinterpretation of Ahmadinejad's speech:"

"This echoes the repeated allegation by President Bush and other top administration officials that Iran’s President Ahmadinejad has issued such a call. “We are talking about a specific threat on a partner of the U.S. and Germany,” Bush told the German newspaper Bild last week."

Look at the picture of senior judge 'Geobbles' on the BBC article - freaky looking shit or what? You just wouldn't believe we are in the 21st century would you?
