Hersh: Bush Funneling Money to al Qaeda-Related Groups
http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/022607A.shtml

Seymour Hersh reports that the Bush administration is funding
anti-Shiite Sunnis linked to al Qaeda without Congressional approval
and without appropriate appropriation. Hersh speculates that the money
is coming from the pallet-loads of cash floating around Iraq and has
already reached "three Sunni jihadist groups." He says, flatly, that
the president is "supporting groups indirectly that are involved with
the same people that did 9/11."

Not too mention, as my lovely wife did this morning, that we appear to
be fighting terrorism in Iraq and supporting terrorism in Iran.

Is it any wonder that America's image is in the toilet around the world.

Not to worry, though, we supported terrorists in Afghanistan when they
were the Russian's enemies. Look how successful that was....
