It's time to call Harry Reid or your senators to ask them to demand the FBI fulfill their promise to question Ahmad Chalabi regarding his part in leaking classified documents to Iran nearly two years ago. And while they're at it, they need to interrogate him about the PreWar Intelligence which he passed to our leaders which proved to be wrong, wrong, wrong.
This is potentially an extraordinary opportunity for Senator Reid to make the nation aware of the level of moral bankruptcy in the White House. Chalabi used our taxpayer money to falsely help this Bush Administration lead our nation into war and this week he'll be partying and taking meetings with our nation's movers and shakers. Most Americans have only a vague idea of who Chalabi is and now is the time to call upon our leaders to drag the Thief of Baghdad in to fill the gaping holes left by Cheney and Roberts in Phase II of the Senate Select Intelligence Committee's report.
Via Josh Marshall at Talkingpointsmemo from the Wall Street Journal:
"As Iraqi Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Chalabi arrives this week in Washington for talks, there is little sign of progress in a federal investigation of allegations that he once leaked US intelligence secrets to Iran.
More than 17 months after then-National Security Advisor Condoleeza Rice publicly promised a full criminal inquiry, the Federal Bureau of Investigation hasn't interviewed Mr. Chalabi himself or many current and former US officials thought likely to have information related to the matter, according to lawyers for several of these individuals close to the case."
The case remains in the FBI's hands to this date and there has been no Grand Jury called.
And Chalabi is meeting with Condoleeza Rice, the very same who promised a full criminal inquiry. What the hell is going on, here?
Yes, I diaried about this yesterday, but I'm a dog with a bone on this one. I'm asking all Kossacks to call their Senators and have them go public on the Senate floor. It's essential for them to tie Bush in with Chalabi and shed light on the railroading of not only the Senate Intelligence Committee, but the nation.
Chalabi IS the smoking gun.
