... and guess who was at the source of these information ?... Thus the Schroeder government sees itself exposed to reproaches of passing wrong information to Bundestag: Twice, on 13 November 2002 and on 12 February 2003, BND president August Hanning was available to members of the foreign committee in a secret meeting. Both times Iraqi WMDs were on the table and both times the allegedly existing truck laboratories played a central role. (...) Pflueger feels deceived by the fact this was concealed from him, and in addition by the fact, the connection of the informant to Chalabi was not mentioned. "It would have been absolutely necessary to let us at least know that its based on one source only, and a questionable on top of that." A reproach, the government is not ready to stand unanswered: it learned about close connections with the exile opposition only after the war. from kommunisten-online.de dj PS: do not judge the reference by the name but by its content: it's a recap of a Spiegel article from some time ago.
