Horne is another Tom Friedman
Its hard to understand why an astute and intrepid columnist such as Gary Kamiya would give this British Neocon any legitimacy by interviewing him.
Basically Mr.Horne got caught up in all the sexy trumped up music and action for war with Iraq, got an erection and supported the invasion. This guy knows his credibility as a historian is the gutter and so now he is just another rat abandoning a sinking ship and trying to salvage what's left of his putrid reputation.
How can it be that Pelosi, Obama, Edward Kennery, Byrd, Gen Odom, Lt Gen Hoar, Brezinski, Hersh, to name a few know that going into this war of choice would be a disaster for US but someone with the knowledge and gravitas such Horne get it wrong?!! The answer is plain and simple...his career has been built on war...he writes about war and supported this war to feed himself..look how happily he announces "Sharon loved my book and I am the reason he won a war!!!..Wow me!!! (oh and he has the gall to blame the Jews for the Iraq disaster!!!...now that things arent goin well)
This guy isn't sorry about anything...he is just issuing a mea culpa to salvage his reputation..I bet some in the deep crevices of his fetif mind he is craving war with Iran but is too scared to utter it.... but he cloaks his desire for Arab annihilation by saying "oh Islam is a backward religion..oh look Gary look!..Indians make more money than Muslims...so Muslims suck!
