Hypocrite Of The Week

Perle Criticizes the U.S. war he promoted:

"One of the ideological architects of the Iraq war has criticized the U.S.-led occupation of the country as 'a grave error.'
Richard Perle, until recently a powerful adviser to U.S. Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, described U.S. policy in post-war Iraq as a failure.

'I would be the first to acknowledge we allowed the liberation (of Iraq) to subside into an occupation. And I think that was a grave error, and in some ways a continuing error,' said Perle, former chair of the influential Defence Policy Board, which advises the Pentagon."

Obviously they just didn't do it all exactly the way Perle wanted, or it would have all worked out...
