the midterm elections, and may instead have something to do with this prosecution? I mean, since when do Bush, Cheney or Rumsfeld give a crap about the opinion of the American people?
Thesis: Stopping any honest dealings (inspections, intelligence, prevention) on WMD proliferation was of most particular interest to Rumsfeld. He set up a whole Pentagon intel shop to circumvent honest intelligence. He is the master-mind of the Plame/Brewster-Jennings outings.
They had it set up so that the Niger/Iraq nuke forgeries would be followed by a "find" of nuke weapons or material in Iraq. By making them "crude" forgeries (easily detectable), they drew the CIA into a known no-nukes-in-Iraq position. They intended to discredit the CIA forever and purge the agency of all honest professionals, when nukes that they were illicitly moving into Iraq were "found" by the US troops who were hunting for WMDs (accompanied by J Miller), and also to thus cement Bush's and Blair's political positions (justification for the war, when nukes were "found").
But something went wrong. Maybe somebody in the B/J network caught the illicit movement of nukes and prevented it. David Kelly found out about it (circa May '03); he began whistleblowing anonymously to the BBC about the "sexed up" pre-war intel (out of conscience; he was a straight-shooter); he was outed to his bosses and interrogated at a "safe house" (Hutton report), where they found out what he knew (phrased thusly: Kelly "could say some uncomfortable things"--not had said; COULD say); Tony Blair was informed July 7 (a day after Wilson's publication) (Hutton report); a week later Plame was outed (cover story--Rovian revenge for Wilson's article); four days later, Kelly was assassinated (he knew too much, and was already off the reservation as a whistleblower)--they searched his office and found a connection to the Brewster-Jennings network; a week later, the entire B/J network was ADDITIONALLY outed (consequence--all its coverts dead or disabled). This act of treason is why Rumsfeld resigned.
Bush, Cheney, Libby, Rove--none of them want to be nailed for it. It was his baby. He had to leave. One of them--or someone else in the know--ratted to Fitzgerald, or to Republican "aspens" (powers that be), and/or to Bush Cartel operatives (Baker? Daddy Bush? --who were also hearing complaints from their masters in Saudi Arabia, re Iran/Shias winning the war under Rumsfeld). Rumsfeld had to go. The election was just a coincidence--an excuse to try to make it look like Bush Jr. is listening to criticism. (--much like the coincidence of the Wilson publication, 7/6/03, with Kelly interrogation results going to Blair the next day, 7/7/03. The Wilson article provided a political cover story for the real reasons for outing Plame-B/J. The midterm elections provided a cover story for Rumsfeld's exit.)
Michael Ladeen and other rabid NeoCons on the Pentagon payroll, the notorious Iran-Contra arms dealer Manucher Ghorbanifar--all of them with connections to Chalabi--and the head of Italian intel, Polari, were the participants at a meeting in Rome in late 2001, where it is suspected that the Niger forgeries were cooked up. But why the forgeries were so "crude" and easily detectable, and why they kept putting this disproven allegation back into Bush's speeches, after the CIA and State Dept. had taken it out, remain a mystery. This thesis--that part 2 of the Niger forgeries plot was to plant the nukes in Iraq, to confirm the nuke allegation in the public's mind--solves that mystery (--those master spies and dirty dealers in Rome couldn't come up with good forgeries??). It also explains why the Bushites would ADDITIONALLY out the entire Brewster-Jennings network. They did not know for sure WHO in that network had foiled their grand scheme. So they disabled EVERY covert agent/contact in the network--as punishment for honest work, and to eliminate the best agents/contacts. They may also have had an additional scheme to track these nukes to Iran, to justify crossing the border, or hopes that the Iraq scheme could still be accomplished--which the B/J network stood in the way of. But whether they did or not, their reactions during the weeks of June-July 2003, smell of panic at being discovered--of their whole nefarious scheme coming out. (And I'm speaking just of the known reactions--their many calls to reporters, to get Plame outed, etc. What was the urgency?) (The simultaneous reactions of the Blairites to Kelly, in England, also smell of panic.)
Theories, hypotheses, theses: Whether this speculation is close to the truth, or far off--it could be either (not enough is known yet)--the question remains: Is Rumsfeld's ouster connected to this case? His name has not been mentioned in connection with it--even though he was the one with the most vital and immediate interest in screwing up US intelligence, and was in the best position to do so. Cheney has been named in court docs, and discussed as a potential witness. The trial is of his chief aide, Libby--for obstructing the investigation. I suspect that Cheney's markings on the Wilson newspaper clipping--which have come out in court docs--were made after the fact, to reinforce the political cover story. Cheney may think he can evade prosecution with politics as the motive. But what in fact may have been going on was that Cheney was taking direction from mastermind Rumsfeld on a premeditated an act of high treason. Not to mention low, wormy, slimy, gutter-level deception of the American people and the world.
And/or, they're going to fess up, eventually, and blame it all on Rumsfeld, who will be long gone to Paraguay by then.
