That doesn't mean he's not a courageous and able opponent of the war now. Cole did support the invasion of Iraq for the reasons rk cites.

Yawn. And as for his assertions, well, what of them? It would seem to me that he would need to back them up. Please, show us where it is documented the Professor Cole supported the war in 2003. And why not ask him yourself rather than support the witch-hunt? Dain, it’s not an answer and RK did not ask a question. Yawn. And as for his assertions, well, what of them?

Don't forget about the whopper about Anthrax. It was related to the Iraq met with Al Qaeda myth. As Powell alluded to the moble weapons labs (also a lie) being used to make Anthrax. It turned out the anthrax came from our own labs and the man caught on tape stealing it was a Zionist dual citizen with Israel Philip Zack. Just like the authors of all the other lies.

He is one of the rare voices who has actually had the guts to tell the truth about what's going on in the Middle East and he has paid the price for it in his career.

As I remember it, Cole actually supported going to war in 2003 because he claimed the Baath Party was so horrible (and because he has always been pro-Shiite and therefore thought of Saddam as an enemy). Also, for the first few years of the war, he was strongly against withdrawing any U.S. troops claiming it would lead to a bloodbath. This guy is a charlatan who thought it was OK for the U.S. to violate international law because it supposedly would help his favored group (the Shiites). Now he never mentions that he was originally for getting into this disaster in the first place. RK Scott,
