Okay... I get it... so, it's the Intelligence Agencies who are correct... and the politicians that see what they want to see who are wrong.
Well, I convinced. Now, I hope all of the other idiots that believe politicians instead of Intelligence agencies and their agents follow suit.
Again, read the downing street memo.
Look into what really happened during the build up to the Iraq war. There are countless other documents available, and confessions made by insiders, which make it clear that the intelligence was being made to fit the agenda.
Pretty simple really.
And as far as the Hatton report, and the inquiry into the Dr David Kelly incident, everyone knows that the non-independent inquiry was a whitewash from the word go. Blair should have been kicked out office in 2004.0 -

I have read plenty of reports and yes at one point Iran was trying to pursue a nuclear weapons program. That was years ago though and even the IEAE has stated that there is no evidence of a nuclear weapons program. The only problem is that Iran is not being 100% cooperative but up to this point all the proof points to them not having and no longer pursuing a nuclear weapons program. Now this doesn't mean that we can call it a day. We should still be vigilant and the IEAE should continue to push Iran for 100% transperancy and cooperation."When one gets in bed with government, one must expect the diseases it spreads." - Ron Paul0 -

"On Monday, December 3, 2007, a report from Bush's own government said quite clearly that its intelligence proved that Iran halted nuclear arms work four years ago."
I am trying to find this report. Considering Bush is ignoring it, along with Israel, it is probably important.0 -
I think Ahmadinejad (obviously) knows and was just making the crow eating session that much sweeter....shining some sunlight on the vampires so to speak.Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.

as i have said before. sadly, most people will always take the intel that they want and disregard the rest. more sadder is that this admin. has made people fill very distrustful.People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they avoid."

Tighten up security at airports? Advise all airlines and air crews that we will post undercover armed and trained U.S. Marshalls on all U.S. flights? Check all carry on bags? Have all intelligence and law enforcement agencies work together instead of trying to go it alone? Notify the public of the threat and tell them to report any suspecious activies, such as persons getting flight trainning on only how to fly a plane and not interested in take-off or landings, instead of turning the other way?
