Michael Ledeen on Hannity & Colmes
I just heard Michael Ledeen's interview tonight on Hannity & Colmes. Ledeen has in the past falsely claimed that he had been against the Iraq War. Colmes called him on it, quoting a column he wrote in August of 2002, in which he said:
"One can only hope that we turn the region into a cauldron, and faster, please. If ever there were a region that richly deserved being cauldronized, it is the Middle East today."
Ledeen claimed that he was referring to political change in the region. He was lying. In the same column he referred to "the desperately-needed and long overdue war against Saddam Hussein and the rest of the terror masters."
Ledeen is plugging his new book, The Iranian Time Bomb: The Mullah Zealots' Quest for Destruction, which is out just in time for the kick-off to the marketing campaign for the Iran War.
