One area in which 2010 was a productive use of time was writing this blog. I wrote more entries within one year (45) than I did in the previous three years combined (46). But reflecting on the positive exposure that my last entry received on

Thanks!), it seems I'm always building on the foundation first established with the first and second editions of my initial research into Valerie Plame and Sibel Edmonds. I draw upon that foundation in analyzing this latest report:
The name MEK sounded very familiar to me. I found it within the

It is clear the neo-cons have had plans for Iran, with or without Chalabi’s help. Even during the run-up to the invasion of Iraq, Undersecretary of State John Bolton was credited with saying, “Real men want to go to Iran”. www.worldsocialism.org/spgb/mar06/page6.html On May 30, 2003, the Pentagon was reported to be advocating massive covert action to overthrow Iran’s ayatollahs. Indicating they would like to use the Mujahedeen-e-Khalq (MEK), though the State Department had them on their terrorist list, Feith went on the record arguing that the MEK had not targeted Americans since the 1970s and was only put on the terror list in 1996 by President Clinton to improve Iran relations.

They were being used by the Pentagon to do this in a plan made by Rumsfeld under pressure from Cheney. (Yet another example of what former Secretary of State Colin Powell’s Chief of Staff Lawrence Wilkerson describes as the “Oval Office Cabal” headed by Cheney.
http://www.commondreams.org/headlines05/1020-01.htm) The crazy plan was carried out by Stephen Cambone, which consisted of him making them swear an oath to democracy and resign the MEK. He then incorporated them into their special unit and trained them.

http://www.cooperativeresearch.org/entity.jsp?entity=harold_rhodeI'm not sure if Guiliani and company are doing this because they feel emboldened by the Tea Party-fueled GOP House takeover in November or not. (Though I find it hard to imagine TP warming up to a group of commie terrorists, but then avoiding hypocrisy has never been their strong suit) But it just seems to me that the more things change, the more they stay the same!
