Pentagon Deleted Rumsfeld Comment

By Mike Allen, Washington Post Staff Writer

The Pentagon deleted from a public transcript a statement Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld made to author Bob Woodward suggesting that the administration gave Saudi Arabia a two-month heads-up that President Bush had decided to invade Iraq.

At issue was a passage in Woodward's "Plan of Attack," an account published this week of Bush's decision making about the war, quoting Rumsfeld as telling Prince Bandar bin Sultan, the Saudi ambassador to Washington, in January 2003 that he could "take that to the bank" that the invasion would happen.

I think the internet is going to be the downfall of large, corrupt governments. It's too easy to gather freely distributed information about all things.. such as the pentagon covering up stuff.

anti-propaganda

To get a fair mix, though, you have to hit a lot of sites....most places spin

I saw Rummy's denial on CNN. Not surprised by the Pentagon edit. Its amazing how these folks have selective memories, and its also very predictable :angry:
