Where's http://www.glen-jenvey.com/usama-laden.jpg perpetrator of 911???????? There is one image from the 1980s that might best highlight the ties between the Reagan and Bush White House to Saddam Hussein's regime in Iraq. It is a grainy video image of a U.S. envoy enthusiastically shaking hands with Hussein himself. The year was 1983 and the envoy was Donald Rumsfeld, the current Secretary of Defense. Over the past year Rumsfeld's pair of visits to Baghdad in the early 1980s gained considerable attention but he has generally refused to comment on his trips. And now it turns out that Rumsfeld is refusing to talk about his possible connections with another of the nations in the so-called Axis of Evil: North Korea. A new report in Fortune magazine has unveiled that Rumsfeld might have played a direct role in helping North Korea build its potential nuclear capacity. Three years ago Rumsfeld was sitting on the board of a Zurich-based engineering firm that won a $200 million contract to provide the design and key components for a pair of North Korean nuclear reactors. The company is ABB. Rumsfeld served on the board from 1990 to 2001. He was the only American serving on the board. And he has never acknowledged ABB's role building the reactors in North Korea. But a former ABB director recently told Fortune magazine that Rumsfeld was asked to lobby in Washington on ABB's behalf. We are joined by the Fortune magazine writer Richard Behar. The forthcoming issue of the magazine contains his article "Rummy's North Korea Connection: What Did Donald Rumsfeld Know About ABB's Deal to Build Nuclear Reactors There? And Why Won't He Talk About It?" Democracy Now! | Did Donald Rumsfeld Aid North Korea's Nuclear Program?: A New Report Reveals Rumsfeld Was On Board of Zurich Firm Abb Which Sold North Korea Two Nuclear Reactors "Those who wish to be ignorant and free, believe in something that never was and never shall be." ~ Thomas Jefferson Thanks for the Memories Live the Light, Give the Light, Bring Heaven to Earth Every Day! I am not a human being having a spiritual experience, I am a spiritual being having a human experience. The ancient Greeks used to say, "You shall know a man by the friends that he keeps." Given the nature of their friends and advisers, what are we to conclude about the Republican party: Stop the madness before us it stops!
