Reason takes on the details of the Al Queada connection with Iraq well. However, what I believe they've missed in their analysis is the person delivering the information. It's clear our intelligence services cannot give away every detail of how they know this connection exists. What is clear is who they've convinced with the data they have.

Colin Powell is no fool. His credibility in presenting the information is a much a part of the story as the detailed information itself. Bottom line; either you believe in his integrity and judgement regarding all the information we have (including what was presented to the U.N.) or you do not.

Personally, I believe him. I don't believe he would be convinced, and put his reputation on the line with history at stake, if there were any doubt in his mind. The evidence must be overwhelming behind the scenes.

Headlines tomorrow should read "Secretary Powell delivers the "smoking gun" and links Al Queada to Iraq".
