A Sincere "Thank You" To The CIA, NSA, FBI And The Entire American Intelligence Community For Finding The Courage To Resist The Iranian Disinformation Scam by Andrew Molchan (This article first ran in the January 2008 issue of American Firearms Industry Magazine.)

(December 27th, 2007) From the very start of the Iraq War, I said it was a set-up and con game to weaken America. During the first week of December 2007, the Nation Intelligence Estimate (NIE) report on Iran was released. The report said that Iran is NOT planning an immediate attack against anyone, and I believe that assessment.

For five years, I've said that three countries, in particular, conned America into the Iraq War. The British were one of them. With the NIE report, some of the America media con artists who helped set up the Iraq War, came out of the woodwork screaming. They said in effect that no "government agency" has a right to "find" anything other than what the supreme leader (Mr. Bush) tells them to find. The con artists said the current NIE report is "wrong" because America's collected intelagencies had changed their minds from 2005. Yes, America's intelagencies finally saw that they had been conned, and they finally got smart.

Let me try to clarify the core moral and legal issue with Iran, and Mr. Bush's mental confusion. Let's pretend that you are a police officer .You are on one side of the street and Leroy is on the other side of the street, leaning up against a wall. Now, Leroy is not the most sterling person in town. You have an "informant," and this informant does not like Leroy. You walk across the street, pull out your pistol, aim it at Leroy's head, and you pull the trigger. Bang! Pieces of Leroy's brains and bloody chunks of his skull are splattered all over the wall. Lot's of police soon arrive, and your captain asks you, "What the hell happened?" You say "I have an informant who told me that Leroy had a gun, and he was going to rob the bank this Saturday. So I stopped him from robbing the bank."

Now, is the town's DA going to: A, give you a medal for effective law enforcement? Or B, will the DA charge you with murder, and/or send you to an asylum for the criminally insane? The answer is "B."

President Bush is insisting that America must bomb Iran because he (Mr. Bush) has been convinced, by the same people that did the WMD scam, that Iran will do something wrong in the future.

Adolph Hitler convinced the German people that all Jews were potential traitors to Germany. The "law-enforcement solution" to make Germany safe, was to kill all the Jews. What today is known as the "Holocaust" was to the German police at the time, preventive lawenforcement. The judges at the 1946-47 Nurmberg trials said that was totally insane and immoral, and the judges were 100% correct then, as they would be 100% correct today.

In 1952, as the Chinese Army was pushing the American Army back down the Korean peninsula, General Douglas MacArthur was lobbying for a massive nuclear attack against Red China. General MacArthur argued that China would soon have atomic bombs (true), and China was violently anti- American (also true, and would be true for the next 20 years), and China was de facto at war with America (also true), and China would grow in power (also true). However, President Truman had ethics, understood morality, and could see past the immediate situation. President Truman fired General MacArthur.

An American nuclear attack against China in 1952 would have been a monstrous crime against humanity. Fortunately, President Truman had some common sense about mass murder. Even though all of General MacArthur's arguments at the time were true, in the long run they were all wrong. Exactly like Mr. Bush's arguments about Iran, in the long run, will be proven to be wrong.

This time around, the collected intelligence agencies (via the NIE report) became President Truman. The American people owe the framers of the NIE report a sincere, "Thank You." America's intelligence agencies have made a courageous turn for the better. They have already come under pressure from Mr. Bush, and the con artists who set up the Iraq con game, and now want the Iran con game. Another stupid war that for America's working class is a wrong war, in the wrong place and for the wrong reasons. America's workers do NOT need another Middle Eastern war that will murder more young American men and women. Hopefully, American's intelligence agencies will keep their courage. For the first time in many years, they put the welfare of the American people at the top of their list. Let's pray that they continue to have the courage to continue doing what's right for the American people, and we should give them all the political support possible.

On October 21st 2007 I posted an article on AFI's website: www.amfire.com, "How America Can Decisively Win in the Middle East." In that article I said America's intelligence agencies have to become like Italian Field Marshal Pietro Badoglio, and realize that loyalty to the "Great Leader" is not always the same as loyalty to the nation. At the end of the day, it has to be "Semper Fidelis" to the American people and what's good for the future of America. My deepest hopes were realized with the NIE report. America's intelligence agencies became Field Marshal Badoglio, and thank God. Semper Fidelis to what is best for the American people, and to the classic moral and ethical traditions that made the idea of America great.

Thank You
