In the meantime, as they make on-site visits and conduct interviews, survey group teams are increasingly falling under hostile, professional surveillance and ambush attempts, according to officials involved in the weapons searches.

It sounds like there must be much, much more. They're using the "big guys" to stop further investigations and discoveries

I'd LOVE to know who Saddam was paying off, especially with the money from the food and aid program meant for his starving people. Someone was stealing food and medicine from the mouths of the poorer Iraqi's - with a greedy smile on their faces.

I also believe if any American politicians, organizations, or businessess were involved in the pay off, Americans should know about it asap. They may be supporting a person or group who wishes to see their Republic eliminated.

I noticed that Howard Dean was wearing a new suit and gold watch.

This is a great post. Thanks.

Now we have to ask ourselves what the CIA is going to do with the list of names. Is the information more powerful for them if it is released, or is it more powerful if they hold it?

Personally I'd LOVE to have this all released.

I noticed that the organization ANSWER (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism) came out of nowhere in the last few years, and was suddenly able to afford offices in Washington, DC and New York City. Their DC location wasn't in a cheap area.

And ANSWER was somehow able to finance publicity, permits, and supplies for rally after rally. Rallies have costs.

Back when I was younger and leftist and stupid, I heard from my friends who worked with the National Organization of Woman (NOW) that rallies on the mall were very expensive once all organizing costs are calculated. NOW would help organize rallies against abortion restrictions, but there'd be a lot of in-fighting over whether the rallies were worth the cost.

It didn't make any sense. If an established organization like NOW worried abour rally costs, why didn't ANSWER? Yes, leftists donate money, but most people donate money to an established cause. It takes a while for a new group to get a donor base.

I think we'll soon find out where ANSWER is getting their money. Maybe we'll be able to trace whether Iraqi operatives were passing them dough.

Sounds like organized resistance to me.

It will take time to digest this pile of documents because not many of the US Military in Iraq reads French. I believe that Chirac's mistress recently moved and so her old address might mislead. Each of the children that she and Chirac have are on Saddam's, let's call it, "contacts" list and were paid directly. It will probably be best not to mention any of this to the Enchfray!

Good find. Thanks for posting.

This treasure trove of info, will have to be weighed against those 900 FBI files that HRC still has. She and the X42 have covered their rears very nicely, all these years.

Yeah, and Jesse Jackson is busy composing poetry for his rebuttal as well.

Something akin to the DNC doling out funds to those prominent political personalities to spew its propaganda.

Here's my take on making the list public.

Any Americans on the list should be charged immediately with any crime they have committed and publication of their names should be handled in accordance with the interests of the prosecution.

Any Americans who have not commiitted a crime should be identified publically as soon as that determination is made.

Any non-US citizens who have no influence on US interests or have no access to valuable information should be outed immediately to show the world what was really going on.

Any non-US citizens who have potential use as intelligence assets should be given a chance to start doing us favors under threat of being outed (yes - blackmail them; we are at war and they have allied with people who are killing Americans). Once they are outed they are useless to us and have nothing to lose by continuing support for our enemies.

I would not advocate a blanket publication of the list even though that would feel great and I'd love to know who's on it.
