IMHO John Bachelor is a Art Bell type of guy. Take his comments with a grain of salt.

A Fox News show some months ago:

Eric Shawn: "John Loftus told us about it months ago right here on Inside Scoop. John, that's why we call it, 'Inside Scoop' - you beat the New York Times again. Congratulations!"

John Loftus: "Thank you very much."

Eric: "How do you do it?"

John: "Well, ummm, this little country lawyer used to have a Q clearance for nuclear weapons secrets and I was told about this amazing wiretap where British Intelligence overheard a call from North Korea to Libya saying, 'My god, if the Americans ever go into Iraq, they're going to find out about our nuclear program. And who's going to pay all the Iraqi nuclear scientists in Libya if Saddam falls?''"

Eric: "You're saying before the war there were Iraqi nuclear scientists working on a potential bomb in Libya before we launched this [war in Iraq]?

John: "Yeah. This was a treaty signed by a man called Ali Sobree (sp?). He was the foreign minister of Iraq. And he went to Khadafy and they worked out a whole protocol. Khadafy would donate a hollowed out mountain in Libya; Iraq would provide the nuclear scientists, and North Korea would provide the uranium. And they would literally make a factory for nuclear weapons. And once that factory was complete, we had lost the war on terrorism. People don't realize that even a small nuclear weapon can kill 300,000 people. That's one hundred 9-11's. So that's why we put [garbled] bin Laden on the back burner -- we were really focusing on getting the Ali Sobree protocol - we had to smash that ring."

Eric: "Now when you talk about Saddam and the war on terror - we've had conversations - your indication is that President Bush understood this after 9-11 and he was mostly concerned about a nuclear bomb from Libya or Iraq or Iran."

John: "Eric, that's EXACTLY it. Within a month after 9-11, British wiretaps showed that we had a MAJOR risk. Nuclear weapons in terrorist's hands would be devastating. And that's why the president said, 'OK, we're gonna shift the emphasis from Afghanistan and Osama bin Laden. We're gonna go into Iraq - that's where the evidence is - we have to capture Ali Sobree."

Eric: "Yeah, but critics say, 'Oh the war is about oil' - ' The war is about democracy'. You say there's someting else going on. ..."

John: "This is absolutely necessary, Eric. Had we not smashed the program, within the next 3 or 4 months - on the schedule they were on - Libya would have finished the nuclear factory - we couldn't touch it. We were designing nuclear bunker-busters to try and get into the mountain [but] even that wouldn't work. Once the Islamic bomb was finished - America - the rest of the western nations were finished. We couldn't stand city after city evaporating by nuclear weapons."

Eric: "In other words, going into Iraq, in your view, having Khadafy now basically give up and surrender everything to us, getting the connection to North Korea and Iran - was a major strategy in the war on terror?"

John: "It was THE major strategy. Khadafy has now confirmed he is going to hand the Ali Sobree protocols over to the United States. Sobree, himself, is now in US custody and he is already scheduled as one of the first three witnesses in the trial of Saddam Hussein.

Sadam's biggest crime? While he was starving his own people to death, his money and his scientists were hiding in Libya to make a factory for nuclear weapons to attack any major power in the world." ..."

You know, I never thought I would ever be happy to hear Qaddaffi open his mouth, but in this case...

Libya trying to turn over a new leaf is starting to make more sense now.

Debka reported this ages ago, and that it was also a joint op with Egypt.

I hope and pray this is true. I have NEVER doubted there were WMDs.

Putin's announcement a couple weeks ago got little play because it supported the Administration.

This Libyan report were probably receive similar mention, then drop to page 99.

No surprise to me. I've long been suspicious of the shell game that seemed to happen between Iraq and Libya. 1. We invade Iraq and "no WMD". 2. Libya suddenly gives up the ghost and says "we don't want WMD", to get back in good graces.

Smelled like nothing so much as: Saddam laundering his WMD through Qaddafi, who would of course love to get the "credit" for "giving them up".

Qad-daffy is not making himself popular with OBL. All the terrorists must have worn out their welcome very badly in Libya. Never ending parties at Mo-mar's tent, leaving the seat up, eating up all the Doritos, leaving half eaten pizza in the frig.

Or maybe Libya is a red state?

Cool, if true. I also expect to find Iraqi WMDs in Syria.

How about sending Mr. Valerie Plame (aka, Joe Wilson) to Libya, to gather more information?
