Hate to say I told ya so, but.....

[The_Rorschach]

One and Only. . .You continue to amaze me.

The only reason he was considered a 'turncoat' was because he accepted donatives, from the ME and elsewhere, which helped fund his information dissemination campaign here in the US and there were allegations he profited from it. Furthermore he spoke against US policy in the ME, and elsewhere, hoping that if he could not persuade the US public, he might be able to appeal to the international community. Hardly the actions of a turncoat, simply an active patriot whom tried to save their country from committing a costly blunder.

Rumours of him and a fifteen year old girl were what caused the most injury to his reputation. Later, I believe, they were discovered to be unfounded.

I supported him then, though I was not certain whether or not intelligence was as current as he believed I did respect his cautious outlook, and I am pleased to know he has not been forgotten.

One and Only, if you know absolutely nothing about an issue, it is often better to simply be silent. Chiming in halfassed uninformed remarks doesn't help anyone, least of all you.
