From another source:

"At some point British intelligence obtained some documents purporting to show that Iraqi agents had attempted to procure literally tons of "yellowcake" uranium from the African country of Niger.

The documents later turned out to be forged. They weren't just forged, they were incompetently forged. The documents mentioned Nigerian government officials who hadn't been in office in years. There were all sorts of technical inaccuracies that made it clear that the documents couldn't possibly be real."

My question is, who forged the documents?

Is this another one of Ahmed Chalabi's stories?

Considering the speed with which that forgery was exposed, it always looked like it was done by the pro-Saddam supporters.

Weren't the French first in line to expose it as a fake, if not they sure were trying to make hay about it being a fake.

Maybe old Joe Wilson had a hand in it.

If Ahmed Chalabi was involved, we would have known about that by now, I don't believe he was that popular in some circles.

We may never know who, created that forgery.
