Australia - Who knew what when?
A timeline on the Niger uranium.

"Sept 24, 2002: British include intelligence in Tony Blair's first "dodgy dossier" on Iraq WMD. On same day, US intelligence official expresses doubts about truth of the reports to a Senate committee closed session." <snip>

So, is the "dodgy dossier" also based mostly on the Niger uranium? Is the intelligence in that dossier any different than the intelligence the CIA had? Is it like, Mr. Brown sees the same thing I see, I don't think it means anything, but as long as you say Mr. Brown does, ok. If both intelligence agencies were using the EXACT SAME information, outside the forged documents, then this is even bigger than we think. Has that question been asked?

Here's another good Australia editorial:

http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2003/07/11/1057783358957.html

"After the fall of Singapore to the Japanese in World War II, prime minister Winston Churchill confessed his ignorance of the weakness of Singapore's defences, saying: I did not know. I was not told. I should have asked... The last thing they wanted to do was ask, because then they might have been told." <snip>

Actually, this is getting to be embarrassing. As someone else posted Bush has single-handedly destroyed 4 countries on 3 continents, not including our own. He really should be impeached.
