In a talk given September 19, 2004, Hersh predicts the Bush "victory" and warns what a second administration will entail. The talk was sponsored by the Washington bookstore Politics and Prose.

This is an amazing speech...covers the 'inside' of the bush* mis-administration....the Iraq WAR and those who pushed bush* (Israel and Iran)...a very good insight into the FANATICISM of bush*, who feels that anything he says becomes the TRUTH just because he said it.....Hersh gives LOTS of people and examples to back up his claims....and is HARD-HITTING on condi rice, who knew full well of the torture and encouraged it in many ways....talks about the upcoming draft.....near the end of the question-and-answer time, hersh becomes emotional as he puts the torture into context: the photos were NOT about 8 or 9 low level military gone bad....they were ORDERED to take the photos, the photos were for BLACKMAIL (men in Arab world do not show their fronts naked, and those military were ORDERED to torment POWs sexually & photograph)..... this video is well worth your time....
