LONDON (AP) - When Prime Minister Tony Blair's chief foreign policy adviser dined with Condoleezza Rice six months after Sept. 11, the then-U.S. national security adviser didn't want to discuss Osama bin Laden or al-Qaida. She wanted to talk about "regime change" in Iraq, setting the stage for the U.S.-led invasion more than a year later.

President Bush wanted Blair's support, but British officials worried the White House was rushing to war, according to a series of leaked secret Downing Street memos that have renewed questions and debate about Washington's motives for ousting Saddam Hussein.

In one of the memos, British Foreign Office political director Peter Ricketts openly asks whether the Bush administration had a clear and compelling military reason for war.

"U.S. scrambling to establish a link between Iraq and al-Qaida is so far frankly unconvincing," Ricketts says in the memo. "For Iraq, 'regime change' does not stack up. It sounds like a grudge between Bush and Saddam." cont.

2. Yes it is..I was happy to see those headlines on Excite..

Just had to relay the good news.
Condi is up to her troll-like ears in this mess. We've always known that..didn't she major in "the History of War", in college or something..Something like Prussian War Heroes and How to Be One..lol.. I forget exactly.

Remember..every web site and web server that carries this story means that thousands and thousands more will know of theDSM by Sunday night, than would have found out listening to msm..
..maybe a glimmer of hope here for our great United States of America.

Thanks
Blaze
