Semour Hersh Claims US Special Death Squad Killed Benazir Bhutto

I’m going to have to add one more problem to John’s 6 problems with modern liberalism: it rots their brains to the point they will say and believe the most insane things. They go batsh*t crazy, as Ace termed it, when witnessing Excitable Andy’s long fall into insanity. You had Kos himself writing “screw ‘em” when the contractors were brutally killed in Iraq. The Twoofer movement is primarily composed of folks on the Left. Pelosi accused the CIA of lying to Congress. The hit parade could go on and on and on, just including material from the Usual Moonbats current posts. But, let’s visit the long, strange trip of Seymour Hersh to Pure Cwazy

Former prime minister of Pakistan Benazir Bhutto was assassinated on the orders of the special death squad formed by former US vice-president Dick Cheney, which had already killed the Lebanese Prime Minister Rafique Al Hariri and the army chief of that country.

The squad was headed by General Stanley McChrystal, the newly-appointed commander of US army in Afghanistan. It was disclosed by reputed US journalist Seymour Hersh while talking to an Arab TV in an interview.

Hersh said former US vice-president Cheney was the chief of the Joint Special Operation Command and he clear the way for the US by exterminating opponents through the unit and the CIA. General Stanley was the in-charge of the unit.

Seymour also said that Rafiq Al Hariri and the Lebanese army chief were murdered for not safeguarding the US interests and refusing US setting up military bases in Lebanon. Ariel Sharon, the then prime minister of Israel, was also a key man in the plot.

This seems to be a continuing delusion by Hersh, who is now attempting to flesh out said fantasies. Back in March 2009, Dennis Kucinich stated that he wanted House hearings to investigate claims by Hersh that there were death squads roaming the world under the direction of the Evil Darth Cheney assassinating people.

But then we get to John’s #4: Oh what a tangled web we weave…. Because Hersh is claiming that the story is untrue. I’d offer him the benefit of the doubt, but, we all know what happened here. A liberal said something outrageous, got caught, and is now claiming that the report was wrong and all you people who believed it are nuts. Similar to what happened with Obama and the bitter clingers comment.

And, of course, some Moonbats completely bought the story, then went, woops, my bad, I knew it all along.

    Actually, he didn’t….. someone else said he did. You acknowledge this in your piece, but still lead with a deliberately misleading headline.

    Real journalists seem to be able to express themselves and their ideas without making fun of those they are speaking of. “Twoofer” and “Cwazy” only give you the appearance of a harshly undereducated fool.

    Please stop writing.

    I went and read the actual interview in Gulf News with Hersh and he quite clearly did not make the claim you said he did. Always check your sources if you wish to remain credible.

    This is an insidious form of censorship – denigrating a reporeporter’s sanity with the intent of marginalizing – not a factual commentary. These “conservative” bloggers clog the internet with bogus “opinions” intended to mold public opinion. The anti-liberal chorus chants rhetorical hatred in the hope of ushering in open fascist rule.
