[lbo-talk] Chalabi a Used-up Spook:Stratfor

[Jon Johanning]

Interesting analysis, but one part I find really amazing: that the 
Pentagon didn't think there would be a guerrilla opposition to its 
occupation. Hard to believe they were that naive, but perhaps they 
really did convince themselves that the Iraqis would universally greet 
them as liberators, as in Japan and Germany.
