Unnamed current and former sorces- but of course. Are there any other kind?
To: AZRepublican
If Sabri were an American, you can damn well bet NBC would give up his location.

What do you think? Bush knew, therefore he lied.
To: AZRepublican
Sounds to me like the Big Media is bracing for the upcoming battle between what is factual and what is not (read: Right and Left, respectively), by affirming the barely-able-to-sustain lies that have been spouted all over the place.

Both the CIA and Sabri said Saddam had stockpiled chemical weapons, but both were wrong, NBC said. And they know this how??

"Sabri provided details of Saddam's weapons of mass destruction that turned out to be more accurate than CIA estimates."
"Sabri indicated that Saddam had no significant weapons program and that while the deposed Iraqi leader desperately wanted a nuclear bomb it would have taken more time for him to build one than the CIA's several-months-to-a-year estimate, NBC reported."
"Both the CIA and Sabri said Saddam had stockpiled chemical weapons, but both were wrong, NBC said."
"Sabri declined to be interviewed or to comment as did the CIA, NBC said, adding that the agency also would not say why it did not listen to Sabri's warnings."
Uh, the warnings about him stockpiling chemical weapons or the warnings that Saddam desperately wanted a nuclear bomb?

" And they know this how??" No doubt they have a real forged memo somewhere. Maybe Dan Rather is working for them

Pure CIA CYA.
Porter Goss probably wants to commit suicide working at that hack organization.

Maybe the newsmedia know the Bush Administration is getting ready for the biggest rope-a-dope in political history.
Maybe some of our former enemies are getting ready to give it up.

Assuming that this story is actually true, whoever felt it important to leak this just put this guy's life in a hell of a lot of danger.
I hope for his sake that he's well hidden and highly protected.

Sabri said there were chemical weapons...
I believe him...
But, because of the "let's play footsie with the UN" crowd, Sabri and Saddam had plenty of time to move them..
Bottom line, Bush did not lie...this is what Sabri and the CIA told him..

NBC wants everyone to think that this confirms there was no WMD and the CIA knew it but this actually confirms the opposite. He says there was no "significant" program but there was a program none the less. Saddam was years from acquiring a weapon but that pretty much verifies he had the desire. He then claimed there was "stockpiles" of weapons but turned out to be wrong. I think this could be considered high level verification so who cares if our intelligence was wrong.
