Icheoku says the man who helped Vice President Dick Cheney get his wish to invade Iraq by telling a concocted story of the existent of a non existent weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, and then head of Iraqi National Congress, Ahamd Chalabi, is dead. Chalabi was 71 years old and died of a massive heart attack. Chalabi will be remembered according to one commentator for 'telling the story America was predisposed to hear;' except that his promised red carpet reception, with roses and music, never materialized. Rather it turned out to be with IEDs and sniper bullets as well as lynching and setting bodies of contractors on fire, which left many Americans wondering whether they had been taken for a sucker. May his soul now rest.
