Chalabi and his liars are still on US payroll:

Can you believe this? "The Pentagon is paying $US340,000 a month to the political organisation led by Ahmad Chalabi - a member of the interim Iraqi government who has close ties to the US - for 'intelligence collection' about Iraq."

Chalibi was the key supplier of phoney intelligence which the neo-cons used to invade Iraq. He told them whatever they wanted to hear, in return for heading the list of possible puppet leaders. But now that all his supposed facts have crumbled, now that Saddam is gone, why is he still on the payroll?

The US says they still rely heavily on intelligence from his agency? Why, when it has already proved unreliable? And after all, wouldn't patriotic Iraqis be eager to rebuild their country without requiring financial incentives? Or are Chalibi's forces actually engaged in something besides just "intelligence gathering" for the US administration?
