SAYING WHAT HAS TO BE SAID...IN TRUE LIBERTARIAN FASHION
Who is Georges Sada? Don't ask the media...

In practicing the art of propaganda, one of the first acts is to convince your intended audience of an alternative reality. Propaganda is designed to distract, re-shape opinion and to deceive. This is a strategy employed with expert skill be the left in this country, and abroad. Perhaps one of the greatest feats of Mussolini-esque distraction perpetrated by the left has been their success in convincing the vast majority of us that Saddam Hussein never possessed weapons of mass destruction.
The facts have been all but ignored as the left as sought to portray Bush as a warmonger who went into Iraq for no justifiable reason. The fact of the matter is Iraq most certainly did possess weapons of mass destruction. This has again been confirmed by a top Iraqi general, Georges Sada, in a recent book entitled, “Saddam’s Secret. Sada a Christian, like former Deputy Prime Minister Tariq Aziz, was a Saddam loyalist nonetheless and a top ranking Iraqi Air Force general. Sada claims, Hussein transferred is WMDs to Syria as it became apparent that a US invasion was imminent. Sada claims some materials were flown to Syria, while others were transported via truck convoy.
Naturally, the left has dismissed Sada’s claims as the stuff of fantasy and the media has all but ignored his book and his claims. The president, just as he has done with the economy and the progress of the war has allowed the left to control the debate. He has allowed the fiction of Iraq’s WMDs to devour the truth. The fact remains that Iraq DID possess these weapons, a reality previously acknowledged by the left, before and after Bush took office.
Even the left acknowledges that Saddam Hussein possessed such weapons at the conclusion of the Iraq war in 1991, in the years that followed, Saddam Hussein never produced one single shred of proof that these weapons were ever destroyed, a fact that is not refuted by any party. Indeed, Saddam refused to cooperate with weapons inspectors from the moment the guns fell silent, until the day he was toppled. In 1998, President Clinton and Tony Blair authorized massive bombing of strategic sites across Iraq. Why? Because Iraq was complying with UN resolutions to scrap its WMD program? Certainly not. As recently as 2003, Saddam was still turning away weapons inspectors. Why? Because he was in full compliance?
The facts simply do not add up. If Iraq no longer possessed such weapons then were is the evidence of their destruction. If weapons systems have been moved, which they most likely were, then it would stand to reason that there would be no trace of their existence, but if such weapons were indeed destroyed a plethora of evidence would readily present itself. The reality of Saddam Hussein’s complicity in WMD production and possession is well known to the left. Every prominent Democrat from Bill and Hillary Clinton, to John Kerry and Ted Kennedy have acknowledged as much during the Clinton and Bush presidencies, yet now we are supposed to forget that such statements were ever made and operate under the assumption that the last 12 years never took place.
The fact that so many people accept this as gospel is a testament to the skill of the left in their ability to wield propaganda that would make even Dr. Goebbles cringe. Are the American people stupid, or just easily manipulated? Clearly it is one or the other when facts can be so easily dismissed. When contrary statements can be easily ignored. Mussolini would certainly be proud.
