YOU DON'T KNOW IT, BUT YOU ARE WATCHING THE LEFT COMMIT SUICIDE RIGHT BEFORE YOUR EYES

French secret service 'kept CIA in the dark over Iraq and uranium' says Telegraph

Think about this. Democrats and their media lapdogs jump all over Bush for sixteen words that clearly implied that Iraq had been shopping for uranium. The exact quote, misquoted by every Lefty this side of Chomsky, clearly stated Brit Intel as the source.

BUT Tony Blair, not anybody's lapdog least of all Bush's, doesn't back off the claim. In fact he re-asserts the claim. To anybody with brains this should be a warning, but not to our Media and Left elites.

The thought had crossed my feeble brain that the French had the goods. I had, and have, no hard evidence of this. BUT NOW it is coming out. In a world of leaks somebody, a mysterious unknown somebody, has leaked a story to the Telegraph of London that the French Intel have the goods, had the goods, and let the Brits see their intel.

The French secret service is believed to have refused to allow MI6 to give the Americans "credible" intelligence showing that Iraq was trying to buy uranium ore from Niger, US intelligence sources said yesterday.

MI6 had more than one "different and credible" piece of intelligence to show that Iraq was attempting to buy the ore, known as yellowcake, British officials insisted. But it was given to them by at least one and possibly two intelligence services and, under the rules governing cooperation, it could not be shared with anyone else without the originator's permission.

The paper points out the French opposition to the war and leaves no doubt that the brave and true French won't share anything. The paper further trashes OUR guy who went to Niger as a basic flunky who was lazy.

They dismissed a report from a former US diplomat who was sent to Niger to investigate the claims and rejected them. "He seems to have asked a few people if it was true and when they said 'no' he accepted it all," one official said. "We see no reason at all to change our assessment."

The fake documents were not behind that assessment and were not seen by MI6 until after they were denounced by the IAEA. If MI6 had seen them earlier, it would have immediately advised the Americans that they were fakes.

This story has the peculiar motivation of everybody in the Intel World rallying to rescue George Tenant because he is being the best soldier of the lot and taking the blame for something the French are doing.

This to me is another proof that you don't mess with "W" on the truth of things. He is a Twelve Step guy (12 Steps of AA) and one of the primary tools of recovery is to "put things out there and turn results over to God" something most of us would like to do but find terrible difficulty doing all the time. Bush seems to live this.
