Hi Tim, Sean's digital nets caught this somewhere on the net already.
But the  full testimony is  helpful, thank you.

No better way to put it. I was absolutely pleased about his use of the
self-fulfilling prophecy, that is definitely what it feels like.


"A mythical historical narrative to justify the case for such a
protracted and potentielly expanding war ... To argue that America is
already at war in the region with a wider Islamic threat, of which Iran
is the epicenter, is to promote a self-fulfilling prophecy."

Although what I ask myself latelytoo,  is how  the "self-fulfilling
prophecy" is related to  "power-business-as-usual". Put another way:
What explains the observable  political hesitancy to look back at the
embarrassing point in time when the whole war was started, or how it was
started?


My favorite statement by presidential aspirant  Edwards, who was caught
in Sean's aggregator lately:


http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6200928/


SEN. EDWARDS:  No, I think Saddam Hussein was a very serious threat. 
Istand by that, and that's why we stand behind our vote on
theresolution.  But I don't know how many times I can say the same
thing: We did not authorize this president to make the mess that he's
made.

Of cause, Tim, we now missed the discussion between you and Sean
concerning the McDonald issue? But so what, I am very, very hesitant
about him and evolutionary psychology. He once was a member of
H-Antisemitism and was kicked out of the list, but I never looked closer
into the controversies.

  From the very beginning of the controversies generated by 9/11, you may 
recall that I argued that the political faction within the American and 
European power elite that was closely associated with Zbigniew Brzezinski 
strongly opposed the schemes of the Israel-centric neocons.  This latest 
development with Brzezinski provides more evidence that his political network 
almost certainly had nothing to do with 9/11, if 9/11 was, as it appears to 
have been, an inside job and a false flag op in the tradition of Operation 
Suzannah, the USS Liberty attack and the World Trade Center bombing.

  Brzezinski (and Carter, and Mearsheimer, and Walt, and Scowcroft, and Odom) 
are up against formidable odds, however: the Israel lobby possesses ironclad 
financial control over the Republican and Democratic Parties, the mainstream 
media, and much (probably most) of the alternative media.  Salon and The
