Two men who leaked a memo about a meeting between British Prime Minister Tony Blair and U.S. President George W. Bush and their aides, have been sent to jail by a British court.

The memo at the center of the case outlined discussions between the two leaders on the Iraq war, which included a reference by President Bush about bombing the Arab TV network al-Jazeera. The contents of the memo have not been made public and have been suppressed by the court.

The case has been largely closed to the public and the jury has been instructed not to disclose their knowledge of the proceedings.
