Yes indeed... Wonder whether the trail points to France. After all, weren't they the source of the forged yellowcake memo? Plenty of French involvement in oil-for-food, wasn't there? Connecting dots is fun, isn't it? The NYT was able to connect the dots between the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth and some Texas Republican party movers and shakers (give or take a couple of deceased ex-roommates, if memory serves me) - a real ho-hum. Strange that they have so much trouble connecting the dots in a story that is potentially huge and that is unfolding in a way that is clear to careful observers.
Indeed.
Then again, the NYT was the vehicle where Wilson confessed that it was he who had sallied forth to darkest Niger to sip tea and discern no yellowcake deals were afoot...
BTW, are you following Fitzgerald's other prong of investigation into the NYT reporter who tipped off the Islamic charity they were about to be raided? If you aren't, I'll be happy to dig up a link for you. All part of the pattern he's looking into, I'm thinking.
