Dick Cheney has a new job - AP ghostwriter
How else to explain this claim:
Bin Laden cited anger at U.S. support for Israel as the guiding philosophy of the terrorist organization that drew American forces into wars in Afghanistan, where he was believed to be hiding, and Iraq, which was flooded by al-Qaida fighters after the U.S. invasion in 2003.Needless to say, Al Qaeda did not "draw American forces into Iraq." George Bush and Dick Cheney and a compliant Congress sent them there, allegedly to "rid Iraq of (non-existent) WMD." And even though Cheney was alleging at time time a "connection" between Iraq and 9/11 (which he is now admitting there was never any evidence to support), even he didn't claim that there were Al Qaeda "forces" in Iraq in March, 2003, "drawing" American forces to them.
