That grin of yours is just so cute The passage you cite from Buchanans speech is merely his take of the facts presented in a historically prominent September  position paper from the Project for a New American Century the group from which GW Bushs inner circle and cabinet was drawn and it did include Wolfowitz Cheney et al And the group had previously  urged thenPresident Clinton to attack Iraq as well Given your liking for history you should find the position paper interesting Try searching the document for new Pearl Harbor for example But Im done answering your ad hominem about Buchanan We all get it that you loathe his politics that says nothing at all about the reliability of the Guardian article which is the only topic thats relevant here
