Ray Robison apparently translated the document prior to ABC also...

Makes Sense -- Now they want to block us on Iran. The Russians still have a vision of being the other competing power in the world

Could this be the "embarrassment" of "allies" that some were worried about concerning the release of these documents?
I'm glad this is all coming out. What will emerge is the efforts of France and Russia to line their own pockets and backstab us....as well as enrich themselves with "Oil"
How perfectly ironic. The critics of the war blamed us for "fighting for oil"...and here, it wasn't the US that fought for oil, but Russia and the Europeans who were willing to shut their eyes to Saddam's tortuous regime as they enriched themselves with oil.

If it were any other President, I would want to know how the heck the Russians found out.

I'm sure Pollyanna told them, to make friends !

This administration is DANGEROUSLY naive.

This document also includes an account of an amusing incident in which several Iraqi Army officers (presumably seeking further elaboration of the U.S. war plans) contacted the Russian Embassy in Baghdad and stated that the ambassador was their source

I believe this because of this one paragraph....the arrogance and naivety of third world muslims is legendary....and, yes, we take advantage of it....

receiving allocations of 3 million barrels of oil — worth roughly $1.5 million.

Huh?? 50 cents a barrel?

It was a "team" effort.

I still think it was Dr. David Kelly who leaked the war plan, and was killed for it.

This should not be a surprise to anyone. The Russians where supporting Saddam. The Russians had their goons in Baghdad and elsewhere in the country until the invasion started, and most likely afterwards, before they flew out. Most probably it will eventually be found at least some of those convoys into Syria contained Russian documentation they did not want to leave behind. Most likely as much that could be shoved into their cargo planes etc., would have existed Saddam Int. asap.

Just prior to the war Comrade Putin informed Saddam of everything he was mistakenly informed of by Washington. Let's not make the same deadly mistake on Iran.
