Correct, I alway say that DEBKA gets it wrong sometimes, but more importantly they get it right often and it is eon's before Dan Rather, who usually gets it wrong or spun. The closer to the source you get to the story, the more noise you will get, the intelligence process is to sort it out, I don't like NBC doing my sorting for me.

I give Debka much more respect than I give Judicial Watch or that miscreant Larry Klayman.

Yep. The same people decrying Debka as having a low signal-to-noise ratio are avid FR participants. Ironic.

As if everything posted on FR except Debka articles needs to be taken with a grain of salt!!! LOL.

I don't either, but IMO Debka stories, at least the big-picture ones, are very seldom independently verified or subsequently borne out by events. But by then Debka is merrily off to the next big intel scoop...

Sorry, you can't get it wrong as often as Debka does without it being tagged as the disinformation arm of Mossad.
