<<<Good reporting from Judith Miller. >>>
The lady was very impressed with the quantity of arms in Iraq which seem to be everywhere. We were lucky so few people stayed around to use them, but those noisy bombs falling from the sky can be discourage people form standing too long in one place.
Am not having much luck hearing whether any WMD's have actually been found yet, some minor TV reports say yes, but most say no.

Good reporting from Judith Miller. It's very carefully worded to indicate she's not making these claims, only reporting they have been made and the only source for much of it is the reputed Iraqi scientist. He may turn out to be reliable but in this environment I would guess the better part of wisdom is to remain skeptical. Seriously so.

Miller was interviewed on Fox today and asked, do you believe this guy? Her reply was, yes, I do, and the agents I spoke to found him credible. They are checking out the details of his story now.

When you listen to her, you will see she suggests she is speaking carefully. She doesn't have clearance from the Military as yet to say what she knows so far, The Government wants to be sure that his family is secure first, and the Government and the Military want to be sure that the scientist is as reliable as Ms. Miller thinks he is.
