Fifth Column
Michael Ledeen Attacked By Cowardly UK Fifth Columnist
2006-07-16
Jihad el-Khazen of Dar al-Hayat (House of Light), the London-Beirut mouthpiece for Arab crybabies, is fire-breathing against Michael Ledeen, from his safe London homestead. If Jihad had done his homework, he would know that Ledeen's support for military over democraticization options in the Middle East, hardly makes him a toady of either the Bush administration or Israel. A couple of years ago, I e-mailed Jihad, and told him that he should move to Beirut if he wants to spew front-line rhetoric. His reply, "Go f--- yourself." Crybabies do as crybabies are.

Jihad el-Khazen al-Hayat - 13/07/06

Michael Ledeen's role in the Iran/Contra scandal might be an ample evidence that he worked for Israel, yet I know another fact I noted in my book, "The Neo-Conservatives and the Zionist Christians". In 1983, the infamous Richard Pearl hinted that Ledeen should be appointed as expert consultant on terrorism at the Pentagon. Ledeen went to Rome with his supervisor, Assistant Secretary of Defense Noel Koch, who found out from the CIA head in Rome that when Ledeen worked in the Italian capital as editor for the radical "New Republic", he was registered as an "Israeli agent". Later, Koch tried to limit his access to secret documents. Nevertheless, in 1986, Ledeen was appointed as consultant in the National Security Council, yet doubts about his Israeli affiliation remained, thus his license to access secret documents was diminished one notch.

Knowing the background of Michael Ledeen I suspected from day one that he is somehow connected with the forged Niger documents about Iraq's attempt to buy uranium (yellow cake) from Niger. I have no proof so I do not level any accusations against him but rather offer the reader a summary of the material available on the subject.

There have been long-standing allegations that Ledeen was tied to the Italian P2 Masonic Lodge. This right-wing organisation was involved in a number of terrorist attacks in Italy in the 1970s and 1980s. It has been noted that Ledeen was working as a consultant to Italian intelligence on terror issues in the late 1970s...
Michael: if you made this loser angry, you must be doing something right. Maybe this dork is mistaking Bnai Br'th for the Free Masons.

#3  Second sentence quoted, he misspells Richard Pearl (sic - Perle!). I'm surprised he spelled Iran correctly. Sheesh - can these people get anything right? Wholly forgetting the noxious politics, is the sky blue, which way is up, does a bear . . .. Enough already.
