This is the same story (almost word for word) in all these sources. I don't smoke crack, I don't smoke - period, and I don't care if it bothers you that others challenge the stories you choose to post. I have no idea who you are and I have no idea who wrote this story (could not find the name of the reporter, could you?) which was picked up by all the linked News sites you have given.

The point is this. The story is heavily slanted with Iraqi propaganda techniques. If you cannot see that, you have not been reading the reports.

I could rewrite this story in a non-biased but still truthful way (if this is the truth) and prove to you the biased writing you continue to post.

And you are not the first "poster" I have mentioned objecting to the sources of reports.

Ask my friend JH2 about this very fact.

You have a "right" to post from wherever you want to post from. I have a right to not like your sources.

Then why not source it through Gannett News Service rather than the questionable Ananova?

Sorry Smog, Freedom is right. The CIA just isn't in the habit of confiding policy statements to reporters, no matter how many outlets report the story. Those who talk don't know; and those who know aren't talking.

Think about it rationally: would you jeopardize your career, perhaps your life, for the pure thrill of blabbing to a nosy reporter?
