"He said that Britain had "learned" about the Niger uranium. Since that transfer never occurred, and Bush knew it never occurred, he also knew that Britain could not have "learned" a non-existent event." Ah, the never ending circle of lies & deceit. And the above quote from TP? Well, there's a bunch of lies strung together. Typical of you TP. Bush said, "The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa.". British intelligence continues to stand by this assessment. You have falsely put words in Bush's mouth & then added more lies to make him look worse. Typical repugnant left wing ploy. <font size=4> Last October the NIE declared, quote,"....If left unchecked, it probably will have a nuclear weapon during this decade," end quote. The NIE cautioned that, quote, "Since inspections ended in 1998, Iraq has maintained its chemical weapons effort, energized its missile program and invested more heavily in biological weapons. In the view of most agencies, Baghdad is reconstituting its nuclear weapons program," end quote. The National Intelligence Estimate contains a section that specifies the level of confidence that the intelligence community has in the various judgments included in the report. In the NIE on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction, the community had high confidence in the conclusion that Iraq is continuing and in some areas expanding its chemical, biological, nuclear and missile programs contrary to U.N. resolutions. <font size=5> The NIE has not issued a correction or a retraction on Iraq's nuclear weapons program.<font size=4> A Niger government interview revealed support for the British Intelligence position. I have yet to see this fact be covered with any depth of seriousness by the mainstream press in America. But it didn't escape the eye of the nation's number one national-security reporter – Bill Gertz. In the interview with Niger officials, and as reported by Gertz in the Washington Times, Wilson was told that though the government would not be selling uranium to Iraq, they were "aware" however "that prominent Iraqi businessmen were in their country attempting to finalize a number of commercial transactions which could include the purchase of uranium ore." PING! Let's hear it for Andrea Mitchell's biased telling of the Wilson story on "Meet the Press." <font size=3> washingtonpost.com worldnetdaily.com
