News for the Clueless; Iraq Edition

The U.S. has cut ties to Ahmad Chalabi because of his Iranian contacts.

No fucking shit, geniuses. Chalabi has been playing his own game for a very long time. The neocons who were gulled by his lies and false assurances were nothing more than a pack of useful idiots to Chalabi's ambitions. He is a con artist and a fraud. Allegations that Chalabi has been either playing a game with Iran or is a full-blown Iranian agent have been around for years.

Chalabi was like one of those quislings that conquering powers have set up in captive nations for thousands of years, but because the Bush Administration lost its nerve and tried to impose a democracy, even the Iraqis were not going to trust that greasy little fuck.

With any luck, Chalabi will soon be wearing a blindfold and die with the Arabic word for "fire" ringing in his ears.
