"Prosecutors say Hussein financed trip by legislators" by Matt Apuzzo, Associated Press | March 27, 2008
But don't mind all those congressional trips to Israel with the Lobby picking up the tabs!
It never stops and I'm tired of it!!!!
WASHINGTON - Saddam Hussein's intelligence agency secretly financed a trip to Iraq for three US lawmakers during the run-up to the US-led invasion, federal prosecutors said yesterday.
An indictment unsealed in Detroit accuses Muthanna Al-Hanooti, a member of a Michigan nonprofit group, of arranging for three members of Congress to travel to Iraq in October 2002 at the behest of Hussein's regime. Prosecutors say Iraqi intelligence officials paid for the trip through an intermediary.
At the time, the Bush administration was trying to persuade Congress to authorize military action against Iraq.
The lawmakers are not named in the indictment, but the dates correspond to a trip by Democratic Representatives Jim McDermott of Washington, David Bonior of Michigan, and Mike Thompson of California. None was charged, and Dean Boyd, spokesman for the Department of Justice, said investigators "have no information whatsoever" any of them knew the trip was underwritten by Hussein.
"Obviously we didn't know it at the time," McDermott spokesman Michael DeCesare said yesterday. "The trip was to see the plight of the Iraqi children. That's the only reason we went."
During the trip, the lawmakers expressed skepticism about the Bush administration's assertions that Hussein was stockpiling weapons of mass destruction.
Though weapons of mass destruction were never found, the lawmakers drew criticism for their trip at the time."
Yup, and THAT STORY and the LIES THAT GOT US IN THERE, that's not important!!!
No, focusing on a trip five years ago BEFORE the WAR and that financing, that's an issue!
Not the BILLIONS LOOTED by the WAR CONTRACTORS!!!
Not the DISGRACEFUL CONDITION of Iraq after FIVE YEARS of OCCUPATION!!
Not the SLAUGHTER of MILLIONS, continuing as I type!!!
Not all the LIES and UNENDING LIES of the AmeriKan MSM!!!
Nope, this is the story in my Zionist-controlled War Daily!!!
WHO FUNDS CONGRESS, shit-fucks?
How about taking a tour of the blogs and finding out whose thumb the U.S. government is under!!
Here's a clue:
A furious Sharon said to Shimon Peres:
"Every time we do something you tell me America will do this and will do that . . . I want to tell you something very clear: Don't worry about American pressure on Israel. We, the Jewish people, control America, and the Americans know it."
