Loftus says that the documents are a "bomb shell" and that they back the claims made by Bodansky.
The documents are from Saddam's Military Intelligence (Al-Istikhbarat al-Askariyya).
No word from the LAME STREAM MEDIA!!
Monica Crowley reports that Rumsfeld STUNNED the press room by refusing to answer question about SH AQ ties.
why stunned?
Did he refuse or did he deny there were any? (I hadn't heard about this)
because they know the environment - that unless the evidence is overwhelming, it would be a political negative because the media would cut them up. as opposed to clinton claiming "genocide" as an excuse for bombing Serbia - accepted as fact by the media.
Rumsfeld doesn't talk about things he hasn't researched.
He simply refused to say one way or another.
Wait a minute--Isn't there an article posted already that claims Rummy says there isn't any ties between SH and AQ? Maybe I read the headline wrong or I'm going senile...
AP/Yahoo versus Monica Crowley. She was there. Your call.
I think I've lost count of how many times AP LIED!!!
C-B.S. is bad, but AP is still getting away with its deceit!
Loftus is a democratic hack who's already said he's voting for Kerry. Take what he says with a large grain of salt is my opinion.
BUMP to keep following this with fingers crossed!
This sounds like the BIG october surprise or the beggining of it..and loftus is a dem,who says this is damning and a slam dunk!!
"Wait a minute--Isn't there an article posted already that claims Rummy says there isn't any ties between SH and AQ? Maybe I read the headline wrong or I'm going senile..."
The reporter for this article was mistating what Rumsfeld actually said (just wishful thinking on the part of the reporter).
Monica Crowley was actually there. She said he wouldn't commit himself. He just said that he was astonished at the way CIA reports had migrated from one position to another.
CNS is going to publish the document. They'll be all over the net before the Alphabet Soup networks know what hit them.
this was a big quote of hers--He said he had seen intelligence on that migrate in amazing ways in the past year, adding that there were many differences of opinion in the intelligence community. He did not elaborate on that but said relationships among terrorists evolve and change over time.
i think and hope that bushies are setting a huge trap for Lurch..i can't believe poof no WMD's after all we saw in the 80's-90's
how could he know?? he was never at the meetings..he missed all but 2
Why would they do that ..??
With Loftus being a dem .. it could be a set-up!
