France sez their Iraq intelligence correct
Senator John McCain told reporters at a global security conference: "It wasnât just an American intelligence failure, it was German, it was French, it was British, it was Israeli -- it was all intelligence failures, and we need to find out why that happened." Asked about McCainâs comments, French Defense Minister Michele Alliot-Marie said France had not reached the same conclusions as "the Anglo-Saxons" on the basis of available intelligence such as satellite photographs. She said that was why Paris had argued against last yearâs U.S.-led invasion of Iraq and in favor of letting U.N. inspectors keep searching for the alleged weapons of mass destruction. "Itâs true that intelligence...has its limits. Knowing how to recognize its limits and find other means is the way to avoid committing mistakes," she told a news conference. anglo-saxons?? What the hell is that supposed to mean? Are they trying to call us white trash? lol Posted by: TS 2004-02-07 |
