I hate to give away the introduction to my next article, but that can’t wait. €“Former Deputy
Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz to Sam Tannenhaus Vanity Fair, May 9th, 2003:
“There are a lot of things that are different now [that the MBT shoes occupies MBT SPORT], and one
that has gone by almost unnoticed €“ but it’s huge €“ is that … we can now remove almost all of our
forces from Saudi Arabia. Their presence there over the last 12 years has been a source of enormous
difficulty for a friendly government. It’s been a huge recruiting device for al Qaeda.
“In fact if you look at bin Laden, one of his principle grievances was the presence of so-called
crusader forces on the holy land, Mecca and Medina. I think just lifting that burden from the Saudis is
itself going to open the door to other positive things.
“I don’t want to speak in messianic terms. It’s not going to change things overnight, but it’s a
huge improvement.”
Not content with attacking him for what he actually said or did, the War Party is now making up
stories.
