The Bush Administration apparently does not want a U.S. military study that found no direct connection between Saddam Hussein and al Qaeda to get any attention. This morning, the Pentagon cancelled plans to send out a press release announcing the report's release and will no longer make the report available online.
The report was to be posted on the Joint Forces Command website this afternoon, followed by a background briefing with the authors. No more. The report will be made available only to those who ask for it, and it will be sent via U.S. mail from Joint Forces Command in Norfolk, Virginia.
It won't be emailed to reporters and it won't be posted online
Did you think that just because taxpayers funded a study that showed conclusively there was no operational link between Saddam Hussein's Iraq and Al Qaeda that it would be released to the public? Well, this is the Bush administration we're talking about here, a group who've shown themselves over the years to be master manipulators of the truth and of the press.
Both ABC News and McClatchy have already published reports of the finding of the report, but who's going to be the one to sift through it all and let the public know that Saddam had absolutely nothing to do with al Qaeda. especially when dems, as witnessed on this site are much more interested in bashing Clinton and feigning mock horror at a statement blown out of context by Geraldine Ferraro..oh and of course Spitzergate (sex sex sex). This will probably go the way of Adm Fallon's resignation yesterday..nowhere! What happened to the Dems that "USED" to be interested in the war and torture and the economy and Katrina and keeping us out of another unprovoked war in Iran?
