It does not sound to me like he got set up 20 years ago in anticipation of this. It sounds to me like he has been manipulated to some degree for 20 years.

Perhaps I should believe that Mr. Thompson would admit to something like this if it is untrue, trying to cover for an anonymous source he could have just keep quiet over. Sure, he may have caught some heat from people saying "show us the money", but he decided to tell this story that calls into question his work for an extended period.

I don't think Mr. Thompson just didn't think about that while making up a story to lie his way out. I think he told the truth.

But, I would love to get more information to verify one way or another. If he is telling the truth, as I suspect, there is a bigger story yet to come out. And from the looks of things, it might be very big, given that we are already seeing tentacles heading towards Scott Ritter.

Better head those tentacles towards the Clintons as well! I have had a really bad feeling about anonymous sources ever since President Bush became President!

You don't see a connection between Pitt & Thompson?

Why was truthout.org allowed to use Thompson's original "Bush Lied" article without sourcing CHB, From what I read in the Japan story, they credited the article to the editor of Truthout.org and that is Pitt

I'm with you because this was much more serious than a minor prank.

And I do admire the stuff you've been putting together on this. It's really a fascinating story.
