Ritter says timing of arrest reports is suspicious
Former U.N. weapons inspector Scott Ritter, a harsh critic of the Bush administration's push toward war with Iraq, suggested that recent news reports of his arrest in an Internet sex sting last year were part of an attempt to silence him. He said the publicity forced him to cancel a trip to Baghdad, where he said he would have offered an alternative to military action. And gotten next to a really cute 13-year-old from Basra, who has the body of a 15-year-old... Uh. Never mind. "The timing does stink. I was supposed to be on an airplane yesterday to Baghdad," he said. "Let's not forget, we're on the verge of a major conflict in which thousands of American lives may be lost, and I was a leading voice of opposition to this." Yes. We were wondering about that.
