On hardball, M.Smith said there was a more damning...

leaked report. Does anyone know what this is? And if so, can you post a link? I am having great results printing these reports and passing them out. Seems like they are new "news" to quite a few people out there, as opposed to the "old news" that the msm would have us believe.

1. I'm sure we'll read about it
on page B16 of an obscure British newspaper.

5. I am anxiously awaiting
for the expanded investigation into Tom Cruise being squirted by a squirt gun. That's far more important than these DSM distractions.

6. in the UK there were 2 people that resigned from the government over war
that is old news in europe but maybe its "new" like DSM for americans.
they are Robin Cook who was foreign secretary 1997-2001 (is UK version of Condi's job) and leader of the house of commons 2001-march 2003 when he resigned
contact info:
http://www.robincook.org.uk/cook/robin.htm
his resignation speech: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/politics/2859431.stm

and Elizabeth Wilmshurst, deputy legal adviser to the Foreign Office, resigned in March 2003 because she did not believe the war with Iraq was legal
her resignation letter (this was originally censored when released)
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/politics/4377605.stm

"

My views accord with the advice that has been given consistently in this office before and after the adoption of UN security council resolution 1441 and with what the attorney general gave us to understand was his view prior to his letter of 7 March. (The view expressed in that letter has of course changed again into what is now the official line.)"

this is people at the highest level of the british government resigning and speaking out about the illegality of the war BEFORE the war started,they were involved in the lead up to the war and if anyone has "the facts" its likely to be them, and i dont understand why they arent being interviewed by the US press or by Conyers

7. Probably means the Jul 21 briefing paper, but hard to say without
the context.. Is there a transcript of that show out anywhere?

The Jul 21 briefing paper is at http://www.timesonline.co.uk/printFriendly/0,,1-524-1648758-524,00.html
