When so much of American public opinion leading up to war, hinged on whether Iraq was involved in 9/11. I believe the Salmon Pak information was too important to be censored. Especially, when the sources were eventually backed up by other alternative media outlets.

I can understand having rules and guidelines regarding certain personalities who tend to create strong divisions among participants. However, I also believe there are rare moments, when information should be shared regardless of the source. Occasionally, Worldnetdaily breaks a major story. Occasionally, Rush Limbaugh, Al Hunt or the Nation does to. Such is the nature of information. At some point you just have to leave it up to the posters and trust their judgement regarding whether a piece of data meets that criteria.

Not an easy balancing act to accomplish. And my hats off to you who have done such a great job here.
