A Story Worth Repeating
Barry Rubin
"Ibrahim al-Marashi, an Iraqi-American researcher, wrote a fine article in our September 2002 issue (Middle East Review of International Affairs, MERIA), titled "Iraqs Security and Intelligence Network: A Guide and Analysis."
Earlier this month, the British Government released a report, "Iraq, Its Infrastructure of Concealment, Deception and Intimidation" which was said to be based on high-level British intelligence and diplomatic resources. It was produced under the approval of Tony Blair and praised by Colin Powell. The problem was that most of it was taken, word for word, from Mr. Marashi's MERIA Journal and other articles." |
