Plans for the Iraq Invasion before 9/11

Sibel Edmonds is someone you need to know about. She worked for the FBI following 9/11, and was then fired. She subsequently became a whistle blower concerning information she obtained during her work, that is quite astounding. This interview with former CIA agent Philip Girardi provides a beginning point for understanding what she is letting the American public know. For more information, look her up on Wikipedia. Here is a few paragraphs from a long interview:
The monitoring of the Turks picked up contacts with Feith, Wolfowitz, and
Perle in the summer of 2001, four months before 9/11. They were discussing with
the Turkish ambassador in Washington an arrangement whereby the U.S. would
invade Iraq and divide the country. The UK would take the south, the rest would
go to the U.S. They were negotiating what Turkey required in exchange for
allowing an attack from Turkish soil. The Turks were very supportive, but wanted
a three-part division of Iraq to include their own occupation of the Kurdish
region. The three Defense Department officials said that would be more than they
could agree to, but they continued daily communications to the ambassador and
his defense attaché in an attempt to convince them to help.

Meanwhile Scowcroft, who was also the chairman of the American Turkish
Council, Baker, Richard Armitage, and Grossman began negotiating separately for
a possible Turkish protectorate. Nothing was decided, and then 9/11 took
place.

Scowcroft was all for invading Iraq in 2001 and even wrote a paper for
the Pentagon explaining why the Turkish northern front would be essential. I
know Scowcroft came off as a hero to some for saying he was against the war, but
he was very much for it until his client’s conditions were not met by the Bush
administration.
