A PANICKED RICHARD PERLE SUES TERRORIST JOURNALIST

Rosalinda | 15.03.2003 05:11

Before the hard copy of Seymour Hersh's ``New Yorker'' magazine
has even hit the streets, Perle, the otherwise serenely confident pit bull
for the Utopian war policy, is beginning to show signs of losing it.



[PBS radio; www.daily.nysun.com, March 12]

A PANICKED RICHARD PERLE TOLD THE NEW YORK SUN, `I INTEND TO
LAUNCH LEGAL ACTION IN THE UNITED KINGDOM. I'M TALKING TO QUEEN'S
COUNSEL RIGHT NOW,' about suing Seymour Hersh, whose expose of
Perle's business deals to cash in on the Sept. 11 attacks, has
raised questions of conflict of interest. Not only is
Perle suing Hersh in London, not the USA, but he refused to
appear on PBS radio's Diane Riehm Show, a talk show, with Hersh.

Among those defending Perle is the New York Sun, which is
owned by Perle's London patron, Lord Conrad Black of Hollinger Corp.
The Hollinger Corporation owns the Jerusalem Post, Perle is a Director.

The Sun interviewed none other than Stephen Bryen, Perle's
underling in the 1980's Pentagon, who had been, like Perle,
investigated for espionage on behalf of the Israelis.

Bryen, whose wife headed
the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs (JINSA)
during his Pentagon employment, said Perle `
`should get the Medal of Honor,'' for the work he's done on Iraq.

And, last-but-not-least, Laurent Murawiec, who delivered
a most explicit threat against the Saudis at Perle's behest,
added that Hersh's piece is ``pure bull.'' One must say the same
about Murawiec's rump-kissing in his remarks to the Sun, where he
claims that Perle's ``ethics have never been challenged by
anybody,'' in his 30 years of public life.

Perle's legendary egomania, combined with his cowardice --
evidenced by his going for a presumed easy victory in a London
libel court, instead of a US court, merely makes him the most
obvious choice as the fatal Achilles Heel of the whole Wolfowitz
Cabal, for the purges needed to break the march to war.

That Perle would run for protection,
from an open hearing before an American public
and in front of American courts, to seek relief
in front of the powdered wigs of English judges, borders on absurdity.

But what Perle’s really running from is his criminal behaviour
in luring the once-great United States into an Eurasian disaster

at the same time, he is profiting from the 911 disaster
and sheiking-down the Arabs for protection from
Paul Wolfawitz & Rumsfeld's Defense Department!

The removal of Richard Perle is the unavoidable key
to triggering a badly needed purge in Washington DC.
