Scammed by the MSM?

Meet the man who inspired Reverend Jeremiah Wright's now famous tirade about America's foreign policy inciting the terrorist attacks of September 11.
His name is Ambassador Edward Peck. And he is a retired, white, career U.S. diplomat who served 32-years in the U.S. Foreign Service and was chief of the U.S. mission to Iraq under Jimmy Carter -- hardly the black-rage image with which Wright has been stigmatized.
In fact, when Wright took the pulpit to give his post-9/11 address -- which has since become boiled down to a five second sound bite about "America's chickens coming home to roost" -- he prefaced his remarks as a "faith footnote," an indication that he was deviating from his sermon.

Here is an interview with Michael Scheuer by Bill Maher. You can tell it is probably true because it is depressing.

The civil war/chaos in Iraq after deposing Saddam Hussein was not an act of terrorism on the part of George Bush. None of the Iraqi civilian casualties in Iraq after "victory" were George Bush's fault because he didn't want it to happen. If things had only gone exactly as he wanted it would have gone exactly as he wanted. When we apply overwhelming military superiority against a place about as industrialized as wyoming, things are supposed to turn out exactly the way we want them to afterwards.

Foreign fighters leaving Iraq
The departure of some fighters doesn't mean al-Qaeda is quitting the fight, said Brig. Gen. Brian Keller, the chief intelligence officer for the U.S. command in Iraq. "We're just starting to see more and more fissures in the morale and leadership of al-Qaeda in Iraq," he said.
