If it is used by the administration to vindicate the Iraq invasion, then it follows that President Bush is ready to move against Syria and Iran. But if President Bush and his advisors ignore Sada’s testimony, it is a sign that the administration is worn out by criticism and incapable of smashing America’s enemies.

These things are not necessarily so.

They could ignore Sada because Sada could be wrong, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

What Sadr says at this point is of little consequence. The 800 lb gorilla is the literally millions of Iraqi Defense Ministry documents seized shortly after the invasion. Some have been translated but as Stephen Hayes has indicated are being closely held by the administration. To what end? Only Bush and his close circle know.

He could be intentionally wrong, but as former Deputy Chief of the Iraqi Air Force, he's unlikely to unintentionally wrong, at least about the air transfers.
