BREAKING!
The following is the transcript of General Ali Ibrahim Al-Tikriti’s first videotaped testimony. Additional videotapes will be released by WorldThreats.com in the future.
Salaam Americans. I was formerly known as Iraqi Fedayeen Major General, Ali Ibrahim Al-Tikriti. I was one of Saddam's chief Generals dealing with his secret nuclear, chemical, and biological programs. Our weapons programs were fully operational in the mid-late 1980's where we used such weapons on numerous occasions against Iranian positions as well as the infamous attack on Halabjah.
After the Gulf War our weapons programs were driven deep underground to avoid international inspections. We composed an idea of using salvaged parts from Tamuz in the early 90's as well as research we still had filed to begin construction of a simulation reactor. One of the most critical components was the gas centrifuges. After numerous attempts to acquire specially designed high strength aluminum tubes for these centrifuges we were finally successfully in acquiring these materials in 1999 and early 2000 from Germany.
As far as the weapons inspections were concerned we devised very lucrative measures to hide our ongoing nuclear projects. For instance we were under strict orders to destroy all materials, memos, and reports pertaining to such projects. Immediately after completion of the orders, we were also given orders at random to abandon nuclear facilities and sites where nuclear, chemical, or biological research was being conducted and to move them to future facilities that were not known about until the materials were ready for transport. Many of the workers used for such transport were immediately purged as to leave few witnesses.

Thanks for the ping.
Maybe when we get an honest press corp,if ever, the real story will eventually come out. Until then, we are on our own to dig out the truth.
No. That was Iraqi Air Force Gen. Georges Sada.
Defecting from Saddam's regime casts a shadow on his credibility?
Whose side are you on?
I think Tony's membership has been suspended. We can only hope that he still lurks.
Does the information from this source correspond with information from other sources?
Ok....I viewed the Darth Vader piece and have to ask myself one obvious question...
WHY THE HECK ISN'T THIS BEING PICKED UP AND PLAYED BY THE WHITEHOUSE?
Then, after calming down the flame I asked myself...well said to myself actually ....because this is all more poo. Poo piled on more poo...piled on old poo.
It's fiction.
If it's not fiction then I have to go flaming again because with the Pres' numbers in the stinker like they are...why would any presidential handler allow his boss to get beaten up so badly if this was indded true stuff.
It's a mystery.
I am sure the NYT will be upset that the Iraqis were taking advantage of bulemics. /sarcasm-off
Not exactly "Never-Before-Seen" since it was posted yesterday, but that is okay, it needs exposure!!!

The timing of his defection ... 1991 ... long before the run-up to OIF ... seems far to early to give him any firsthand info. What we need to do is find his sources and interview Them. Likewise, the pilots whom Gen. Sada credits as his sources. These assertions are just too important to leave to conjecture.
Come on - is that really Tony? I've been here a long time, and I didn't know he was a FReeper...
Darn skippy we won't! The MSM has no stomach for truth.
[[Not exactly "Never-Before-Seen" since it was posted yesterday, but that is okay, it needs exposure!!! ]]
Oops! Sorry about that! Didn't know Ryan Mauro was Freepin'. I thought I was his Freeper PR guy.
LOL! Yes, it was really Tony before he accepted the WH Press Secty. You never went on the "Live with Tony Snow" thread, huh?
Thanks for the ping.
The only problem with this is that it has been widely documented taht even among themselves, Iraq had lost track of what they did and didn't have. It got to the point they were sabre rattling without a sabre.
You have nothing to base this on. Unless we know his complete background we can not say he is or is not credible.
LOL! No problem! Like I said, exposure is good!
How much would you like to bet that it stays unseen by almost everybody? The MSM will drop this story faster than you can turn around while printing front page headlines about months (years?) old NSA "news".
I am not sure if you are aware of the rule. Anything that makes the President look good is bad. Anything that makes the President look bad is good.
