So difficult to estimate the PRESSURE that has built up to HIDE everything.

It seems that "their'[bush stay-behinds & friends] game-plan is to try
to ICE the ENTIRE BUSH ERA........
AND ANY CRIMES, ILLEGALITY, ANY WRONG-DOING.....WHATSOEVER.....
including errors and WAR CRIMES.....A total COVER-UP of EVERYTHING!!!

Unfortunate for "THEM" that it is a WAR CRIME to NOT investigate war crimes....

Before there was AIPAC, there was an Israel Lobby. It resides in the upper branches of the US media. While the Gaza massacre has shocked many younger Jews into thinking for themselves, the editors and publishers in our print and broadcast media continue to report on the fight between Israel and the Palestinians as if it were a war by Israel against terrorists, not unlike the WWII era German media reporting on the fight against terrorists. Imagine reading about a war against gun smuggling terrorists in "Jewish controlled" Warsaw Ghetto then as you now read about gun smuggling terrorists in "Hamas controlled" Gaza. No doubt if the Germans had dime bombs and white phosphorus to use against the Warsaw Ghetto, the Germans would know from what they read in their newspapers that such was justified, as has been the case in the reporting on Gaza.
