He was covering for his own previous sales of yellowcake that might have been re traded to Iraq. See Here
It would be embarrassing to the point of treason if any of his yellowcake showed up in Iraq especially through Libya.
Quote “It would be embarrassing to the point of treason if any of his yellowcake showed up in Iraq especially through Libya.”
That is the thing it didn’t have to go back to Iraq.
Saddam moved his nuke program to Libya, along with
billions of dollars and moved his scientists there also.
Libya was doing it for him, and the yellowcake just only
had to be trucked secretly from Niger next door. Joe
Wilson helped arrange this on his Niger visits, then aided
in a coverup and screwing of the Bush people with a fake
CIA outing scandle.
When Saddam was caught, Libya chickened out, gave up
nuke program to UN and US, and all the stuff hauled
back here, and Bush/Rove/Cheny was so relieved they didn’t
see the pressing need to correct the railroading of
Libby and the scandal which hurt the GOP real bad.
