Think the Demo minority will understand they have been 'exposed'?
Leave it to Hitchens to tear apart that Senate Intelligence Committee report..
I betcha he can find more..much more.
later read
ping
Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my miscellaneous ping list.
Hitchens is an good writer and an ally in the WOT. Otherwise he can go piddle up a rope. I'll have to admit I haven't paid much attention to him since he did a hatchet job on W for the Beeb 3 or 4 years ago (or ever for that matter; I first became aware of him trashing Thatcher).
Btt
Re: "break the U.N. embargo on official flights to Baghdad"
France and Russia had no problem with it. They couldn't take up the cause? IIRC they did...why then ask Niger?
We don't have time for this. I mean Ann Nicole's son keels over due to a bad batch of meth, college football players accept gifts from pro scouts, we don't know who killed JonBenet, Natalie Holloway is still dead, a slutty teacher gets a news conference, some pro baseball players and pro bicycle riders MAY have taken steroids, you could put Pink and a Hampshire hog in identical party dresses and the hog would look better......
Gotta keep our eyes on the important things!
sarcasm off>
Ping...and thank you!
Will this important story ever gain the status it deserves? Hitchens has been talking about it for awhile now, and even the conservative the Washington Times still hasn't noticed. I noticed yet another "no Iraqi yellowcake from Niger" story in yesterday's paper.
For a Trotskyite Hitchens gets it right quite often.
self-ping
This is excellent. The amazing Christopher Hitchens at his very best.
Bookmarked.
I'm late finding this thread, and only did because I "searched" to see if the following was already posted. It's a 9-11-06 radio interview with Christopher Hitchens.

Nice addition to your thread.
"Bush lied" bump
Ping - It's not as if we haven't seen this information before, but Hitchens does a good job of making it brief and readable.
More:
Its eavesdropping work brought to light a hotline between Niger Ambassador Adamou Chekou (today advisor to Niger President Tandja Mamadou) and Iraqi diplomats in Rome, specifically with Wissam al-Zahawiah [aka Zahawi], Iraqi Ambassador to the Holy See.Holy See? As in Vatican? Where Vincent Cannistraro is the security advisor? Hmmm...
