Britain to produce new evidence on Iraqi WMD: report
2003-08-10
Oops - Make another batch of that Donk Kool-Aid - they’ll be drinking soon
The British government is soon to present new evidence that Iraq had produced biological weapons, it was reported.
"Nope. Nope. Prob'ly forged. An' they didn't know about it in February, so it doesn't count..."
Intelligence officials were producing another dossier on Iraqi arms, and "there is said to be hard evidence of cover-up programmes designed to conceal weapons of mass destruction", the British magazine "The Economist" said in its latest issue. "We would hope to be able to demonstrate in the fullness of time that almost all the information in the dossier (published by the government last September) was accurate", a government insider told the magazine.
"Nope. Nope. Just another bunch of disinformation. An' Bush ain't really president 'cuz Gore won the popular vote and Clare Short sez Blair's nasty..."
Government sources "say that several new bits of information will emerge including evidence based on interviews with Iraqi scientists that biological weapons had been produced in quantity", the Economist said.
"Nope. Nope. Anything less than... ummm... 20,000 doesn't qualify as 'quantity.' More lies..."
Britain was the staunchest ally of the United States in the war against Saddam Hussein’s regime launched in March. Both countries used Baghdad’s refusal to give up its alleged weapons of mass destruction as the main justification for military action.
"But it wuz lies, all lies! We know better!"
No such weapons have yet been found, while a September 2002 dossier on Iraq published by Britain has prompted hotly disputed claims that the government beefed up intelligence reports to justify war.
Taking the offensive, Tony? When the Beeb runs a similar story, you can count on it that they’ve got the goods

#5  So the British are claiming there were WMD's and scientists are cooperating--then where the Hell are they? Look under Assad's bed! There is no way they are still in Iraq--i'd bet on the Port of Newark Syria or Iran

#4  Frank G - So was I (re: infamous 16 werdz) - I thought this would be OK for the Sept press conference - and directed TO the press. Anyone else who wanted to be offended badly enough, well, they would be welcome to do so, of course... "Obscenity? Who really cares? Propaganda - all is phony." ;->

#3  I was referring to the "uranium from Niger" 16 word hoopla, but throwing the intel package on the Joint House-Senate session floor during the State of the Union and saying "OK? Happy? Now STFU!" would be satisfactorily satisying as well heh heh

#2  Frank G - 16 - kinda werdy, doncha think? Lessee... Fuck off? No, too short. Kiss my hairy ass? Naw, still too short. How about "Fuck you and the horse you rode in on you gutless back-stabbing multilateralist Phroggie-lovin' wannabee Nancy-boys!" Something like that, mebbe?
