I am not surprised. And yes, he is owed many apologies.

<<Financial Times: Iraq Tried To Get Uranium From Niger>>

Not only tried but did. Almost 2 tons of uranium have been removed from Iraq by the US.

Didn't agent Plame's husband conclude just the opposite? Don't you think having tea with the Niger defence minister outweighs three years of British surveillance? -g-

>> ...The UK government has remained adamant that negotiations over sales did take place and that the fake documents were not part of the intelligence material it had gathered to underpin its claim.

So where is the real beef and if they did not give the fake document who did?

Now the political fall out from a claim to the contrary wouldn't be the motivation behind their "adamant denial", would it? May be eventually they will come clean and show what they had and who they gave it to and the truth will be known about how a fake document made it to the highest levels.

>> I just won't hold my breath.

Ya I know...neither will I. There is just no justice in the world anymore.

<<The CPA has found mass graves with at least 300,000 bodies in them, and even the National Geographic now estimates that as many as 7 million Shi'ites have disappeared over the twelve years the UN sat on its hands and allowed Saddam to defy the sixteen resolutions demanding his verifiable disarmament. >>>

Good grief- 7 million ? They certainly could have used an Amber Alert system.
