Not so fast...

You state:
In this quote he doesn't say that he saw the papers during his trip.

And here is the rub...

In the spring of 2003, after a purported "memorandum of agreement" between Iraq and Niger was shown to be a forgery, Wilson began to tell reporters, on background, that he'd known the documents were forgeries all along. But the Senate Intelligence Committee found that the CIA (and Wilson) had been unaware of the documents until eight months after his trip. Moreover, it found that "no one believed" Wilson's trip "added a great deal of new information to the Iraq-Niger uranium story." It found that "for most analysts, the former ambassador's report lent more credibility, not less, to the reported Niger-Iraq uranium deal."

How was Wilson able to make a comment on these forged documents when they were discoverd 8 months AFTER Wilson's trip to Niger. Oops...:)
