Cheney's Office Is A Focus in Leak Case
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/10/17/AR2005101701888_pf.html
Starting in the days after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, the vice president was at the forefront of a White House campaign to convince Congress and the American public that invading Iraq was central to defeating terrorists worldwide. Cheney, a longtime proponent of toppling Saddam Hussein, led the White House effort to build the case that Iraq was an imminent threat because it possessed a dangerous arsenal of weapons.
Note the attempt to explain Cheney's actions away as a feud with the CIA. It is clear that the mainstream media is preparing to bury the real issue behind the outing of Valerie Plame, which was Joe Wilson's exposure of the Niger Yellow cake claim as a fraud and the subsequent revelation that the documents the White House had been using were forged, proving that the lies about Iraq were deliberate.
So, start getting ready now. When Fitzgerald announces his indictments, FLOOD the media with emails making the connection between the outing of Plame with the forged Niger documents and the White House Iraq Group. Let them know that YOU know the scandal behind the scandal is the deliberate lie that sent this nation to war.
It took us a month to do it, but we forced the Downing Street Minutes onto the front pages of America. We need to do it again. If the Mainstream media is convinced that most Americans see that the outing of Plame was part of keeping the lid on the lies, they will run the story for no other reason that not looking like the government shills they have been all along.
There is a fight coming up; a fight for the truth. History will be made in the next few months, and you will be a part of it.
CIA leak probe 'widening to include use of intelligence'
Fitzgerald's indictments may kick off a firestorm, but they won't end it. Outing Valerie Plame ended her career and has caused her great financial harm. To a lesser extent, Joe Wilson also suffered financial harm from the smear job Karl Rove unleashed on him. Wilson has announced that he and Valerie will likely sue Bush, Cheney and other White House staff yet to be named. And there is no way to stop the suit due to the unanimous 1997 Supreme Court Decision ruling that Paula Jones' sexual harassment suit against then-President Bill Clinton could go forward immediately, a decision that was hailed by conservatives at the time. That means Bush and Cheney will be forced to take the stand, under oath, and in a suit like this, motive is a valid line of questioning.
WHIG out!

Cheney's name has come up amid indications Fitzgerald may be edging closer to a blockbuster conspiracy charge - with help from a secret snitch.”
...In addition, at least six current and former Cheney staffers - most members of the White House Iraq Group [“WHIG”] - have testified before the grand jury, including the vice president's top honcho, Lewis (Scooter) Libby, and two top Cheney national security lieutenants.

FLASHBACK: Rove at War
Why has Condi Rice gotten such a free pass in the Plamegate scandal? . She was faxed a "briefing book" that contained parts of if not all of the State Department memo ,apparently cooked up by Bolton and Fleitz, while en route to Afrrica with her trained chimp, George. The NSC staff is said to have produced the briefing book. HOOEY. The NSC staff didn't have time to gather all that information with such haste. Mr. Steve Hadley, a member of WHIG, received the fruits of Dick Cheney's 4 month long inquiry into the background of Ambassador Joseph Wilson. There is solid speculation that an NSC staffer with ties to the CIA added crucial additional details. Why do we say this? a) The instructions to Rice came from the Office of Vice President Dick Cheney : "PROTECT CHENEY".... Libby must have spoken to Hadley, Cheney's boy at NSC, and relayed these glad tidings to Kind of Sleazy Rice on Air Force One. b) We know the "TOP SECRET" briefing book faxed to Rice contained a swath of classified data , hence it's identification. c) We know that Ari Fleischer must have had access to Wilson's still classified CIA report , because he blurted out it's content to reporters. ( Condi to Ari to press) The "protect Cheney" briefing book was not used to merely help Rice prepare for Sunday Morning talk shows . You don't fax classified data for that purpose. NSC and others would merely send her the appropriate "talking points" for her to emphasise for upcoming appearances on those programmes. Rice received "the work-up" dossier to begin the process of wasting Wilson and his wife. She handed over this "goodie-bag" to Fleischer , a very stupid move. The "PROTECT CHENEY" briefing book came from the headquarters of WHIG , the office of Vice President Richard Cheney. It was routed through NSC for legal reasons. This agency is independent of Congressional oversight. Members are not confirmed by Congress. NSA's almost never testify before Congress. If you do the dirty work through that venue , it is easier to use the executive privlege dodge. Iran-Contra was run out of NSC , for that express reason. Rice invoked that dodge when she refused to testify before the 9/11 commission.

Does Al Qaeda exist? -
Al Qaeda, a fake enemy created by the United States and its ally Britain, was produced for the sole purpose of using it as an excuse to invade and terrorize Arab and Middle East nations to swallow the world’s oil resources, the editorial said. ¶ 18.10.05
