Cracks in the Empire: Compilation of insiders who have criticized Bush's
Iraq policy

When U.S. Defense Department analyst Daniel Ellsberg leaked the
"Pentagon Papers" to the press during the Vietnam War, the 47-volume
Defense Department internal study of the U.S. role in Southeast Asian
conflicts over three decades was classified top secret. The documents
chronicled the lies and deceit employed by government officials to
justify U.S. military intervention in the region's wars. Ellsberg -- a
strong supporter of the Vietnam War who later became a committed
opponent -- faced felony charges that could have put him in prison for
115 years. Those charges were dismissed in 1973 on grounds of
governmental misconduct, which led to the conviction of several White
House aides. The targeting of Ellsberg was an important factor in the
impeachment proceedings against President Richard Nixon.

Today, numerous Washington insiders are speaking out against what they
allege are Bush administration violations of the public trust: most
notably, the justifications cited for pre-emptive war in Iraq. In turn,
high-level officials -- former Ambassador Joseph Wilson, former White
House counter-terrorism chief Richard Clarke, former Treasury Secretary
Paul O'Neill and former United Nations weapons inspector Scott Ritter --
and others have become victims of smear campaigns reportedly directed
from the White House.

Compelling charges of secrecy and deception are leveled by former Nixon
aide John Dean. In "Worse Than Watergate: The Secret Presidency of
George W. Bush," the former counsel to the president-turned
whistle-blower reminds us that no one died in the Watergate scandal.
Dean, whose testimony helped convince the House Judiciary Committee to
vote for articles of impeachment against his former boss, charges that
George Bush is guilty of impeachable offenses.

As Election Day draws near, presented here is an alphabetical, annotated
list of several prominent government insiders -- many of them
Republicans -- who have spoken out against President Bush's decision to
launch the Iraq war his administration's conduct in managing the
conflict.

Rand Beers, former anti-terrorism adviser to President George W. Bush,
and now John Kerry's homeland security adviser. He said the
administration is "underestimating the enemy;" has failed to address
terrorism's root causes; and that difficult, long-term issues at home
and abroad have been avoided, neglected or shortchanged and generally
under-funded. The Iraq war created fissures in U.S. counterterrorism
alliances, he added, and could breed a new generation of al Qaeda
recruits. Source: "Former Aide Takes Aim at War on Terror," Washington
Post, June 16, 2003.

Doug Bereuter, retiring Republican Nebraska congressman who broke ranks
with his party, reversed his earlier stance, saying the military strike
against Iraq is a "mistake," and blasted a "massive failure" of
intelligence before the war. Source: "Retiring GOP congressman breaks
ranks on Iraq," CNN, Aug. 18, 2004

Robert L. Black, a retired Ohio judge of Hamilton County Common Pleas
Court and the Ohio First District Court of Appeals, stated publicly that
he believes the "Republican party candidate's record has a history not
only of repeated violations of the key principles underlying our
democracy, but of the core values of the Christian faith to which he
claims commitment." Black says he will refuse to support his lifelong
Republican party in the re-election of the incumbent president. "

Hans Blix, former U.N. chief weapons inspector in Iraq and author of
"Disarming Iraq." Two weeks before attacking Baghdad, the U.S.
unsuccessfully pressured him to tell the Security Council that Iraq was
violating UN resolutions. He said that if inspections had continued,
Iraq may have proven its lack of banned weapons. He also says the
U.S.-led invasion of Iraq had failed tragically in its aim of making the
world a safer place and succeeded only in stimulating terrorism.

the invasion, said that the United States made two major mistakes: not
deploying enough troops in Iraq and then not containing the violence and
looting immediately after the ouster of Saddam Hussein. Source: "Bremer

John Brown, foreign service officer in Eastern Europe and Moscow, was
the second career U.S. diplomat who resigned to protest the Bush
administration's Iraq policies. The 22-year veteran said the Bush
administration is pursuing a narrow-minded strategy, jeopardizing
relationships with long-time allies around the world. Source: "Second
Foreign Service officer resigns in protest over Iraq," The Government

Vince Cannistraro, former CIA head of counter-terrorism and member of
the National Security Council under Ronald Reagan. He said, "These have
been an extraordinary four years for the CIA and the political pressure
to come up with the right results has been enormous, particularly from
Vice President Cheney. I'm afraid that the agency is guilty of bending
over backwards to please the administration. George Tenet was desperate
to give them what they wanted and that was a complete disaster." Source:

Richard A. Clarke, former White House counter-terrorism chief. Clarke
helped shape U.S. policy on terrorism under President Reagan and the
first President Bush, then served under President Clinton and the
current President Bush. He said that in the aftermath of Sept. 11,
President Bush ordered him to look for a link between Iraq and the
attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, despite being told
there didn't seem to be one. His book, "Against All Enemies," is
critical of the administration's early emphasis on removing Saddam
Hussein from power; downplaying of al Qaeda's threat prior to 9/11; and
diverting military resources to a war in Iraq, instead of fighting al
Qaeda in Afghanistan. In response, the administration called the career
public servant an "opportunist." Sources: "Clarke's Take on Terror," 60

Marie deYoung, a former Army chaplain who audited accounts for
Halliburton's subsidiary Kellogg, Brown and Root. After complaining of
waste and fraud to her superiors to no avail, she says there was no
effort to hold down expenses because all costs were passed directly on
to taxpayers. DeYoung produced documents detailing alleged waste on
routine services: $50,000 a month for soda, at $45 a case; $1 million a
month to clean clothes - or $100 for each 15-pound bag of laundry.

Jay Garner, the U.S. general abruptly dismissed as Iraq's first
occupation administrator after a month in the job. Garner said he fell
out with Bush's circle because he wanted free elections and rejected an
imposed privatization program: "My preference was to put the Iraqis in

Chuck Hagel, Republican senator of Nebraska, criticized the GOP party
line of "staying the course in Iraq." He said that "crisp, sharp
analysis of our policies is required" to avert a prolonged engagement

in deep trouble in Iraq" and that it would take "probably two years" to
get an Iraqi army and police force up to speed to secure the country. He
said in 2002 that he could think of no historical case where the U.S.

Ray McGovern, a retired CIA analyst. Said outgoing CIA Director George
Tenet took the fall for faulty intelligence on Iraq's weapons of mass
destruction, the motivation behind Bush's Iraq war policy. The policy
was predicated on a neoconservative strategy to use military force to
gain dominant influence over oil-rich Iraq and to eliminate any possible
threat to Israel's security. He also described how former Ambassador
Joseph Wilson's public denouncement of Bush administration claims that
Iraq had attempted to buy uranium from the African nation Niger for
their nuclear weapons, led to the White House outing of Wilson's wife as
a CIA operative. The public disclosure is a felony. Sources: "Taking the
