Do we get to send Bush to Gitmo now?


From the Washington Whispers blog on USNews.com:

Are We Already Operating in Iran?

He says he was only citing press reports, but Jimmy Carter's former national security adviser, Zbigniew Brzezinski, is drawing attention to claims that American military commandos are operating in Iran, possibly as terrorists targeting buses. "There are some legitimate questions that [Iran] may be concerned about, such as: Is it true ... that American commandos are operating in Iran? It's not an idle question," he says, adding: "I don't know, but I've seen allegations to that effect, and I do know that people are getting killed by acts of terrorism, and if it's not us, then who else could it be?" Brzezinski declined to confide his thoughts on the answer.

(emphasis mine)

IF WHAT'S BEING ALLUDED TO IS TRUE -- and note the "if" here -- what can it mean for us in this War on Terror (TM)?

Does it mean we have to decalre war on ourselves and send George Bush, Dick Cheney and the rest of their brothers in waterboarding for a dose of their own medicine at Guantanamo Bay? Would that make it a civil war?

Or, alternatively, does than mean the war is over and we lose? Or -- being that we would have, in actuality, defected to the "terror" side -- would that mean that the war is over and we win?

Life -- and war -- was so much simpler in the 1940s when Tojo, Mussolini and Hitler were The Enemy and our president wasn't an Orwellian weasel.
