Lies or madness?
http://famulus.msnbc.com/FamulusIntl/reuters07-12-042309.asp?reg=MIDEAST

In a letter released by the Foreign Office, Straw confirmed the CIA had expressed reservations to Britain about the claim, contained in a September British dossier on Iraq, but said 'a judgment' was made to retain it.

"The U.S. comment was unsupported by explanation and UK officials were confident that the dossier's statement was based on reliable intelligence which we had not shared with the U.S.," Straw said.

************

So, nobody in Britain called up anybody in the US & went like,
"Do you have an explanation for your reservations?"

And nobody in the US called up anybody in Britain & went like,
"What's your reliable intelligence?"

This goes beyond lies. This is the realm of madness.

"Madness" is probably closer to the truth than any of us wish to contemplate...
