His fantastic allegations - especially his assertion that the US government knowingly stood by while terrorists killed some 3,000 innocents in New York, Pennsylvania and Virginia - would be monstrous, and monstrously offensive, if they came from someone serious or credible.
Uh, the allegations aren’t fantastic, he’s just gathered together some undeniable facts, all of which have been reported previously in countless reputable sources. And, while being a member of cabinet obviously doesn’t automatically make you serious and credible, it’s not like he’s some raving loon who just popped up from the fringes. Still, easier to bluster than actually refute the allegations Meacher makes.
Oh, and I wonder when Meacher drew these conclusions. Presumably after he voted for the invasion and occupation of Iraq at every opportunity. Odd that he doesn’t mention that.
