The New York Times article to be published on November 3rd 2006 is about the US putting some captured Iraqi documents on the Foreign Military Intelligence Office (FMSO) website that talks about what the NYT and the IAEA call sensitive information from Iraq 1996 "Full, Final, and Complete Declaration FFCD presented to the UN and IAEA in 1996 and that talks about Iraq nuclear clandestine program. The IAEA and the New York Times claim that Iran may be using some of the technology in this FFCD which is a laughable idea as shown below.
That is from the IAEA website regardinf their report on Iraq FFCD presented to them by the Iraqis in 1996: “ 3. On 7 September 1996 in Baghdad Iraq delivered what it considered to be the definitive version of the "Full, Final, and Complete Declaration" (FFCD-F) of the Iraqi clandestine nuclear programme. The IAEA with the assistance of technical experts from Member States undertook a comprehensive review of the document.” Link: http://www.iaea.org/About/Policy/GC/GC41/Documents/gc41-20.html
So the FFCD was discussed with member states experts of the IAEA. There are 142 members in the IAEA including Iran. I am not saying that the IAEA discussed the Iraqi FFCD with Iranians but the FFCD was not such a secret document and the Iranians would have been able to access it in one way or another if it really provide them with any useful information.
What is important in this whole issue is that the New York Times has ridiculed these documents all along and never payed attention to them including the very important documents that show Saddam regime never stopped its programs related to WMD including nuclear programs. These documents were translated and posted here on FR.
On the subject of nuclear program, I translated and posted a document last month dated January 2001 that shows with a shadow of doubt that Saddam was personally involved with his nuclear scientist to re-build the nuclear program. In this document it states that Saddam personally approved his Iraqi Atomic Energy Agency to re-use nuclear equipments that include something called “Degussa Furnaces” that were used in the previous and prohibited Iraq nuclear program. These furnaces can be used to melt uranium and other nuclear related activities. The Degussa Vacuum furnaces were supplied to Iraq in the 1980’s by a German firm (Degussa AG based in Frankfurt Germany) and these furnaces later on became the subject of investigations of the German firm in the early 1990’s where the company claimed that they did not know that Iraq would have used them in its nuclear program.
The New York Times had an article in 1998 titled “An Iraqi Defector Warns of Iraq's Nuclear Weapons Research” where the Degussa furnaces were mentioned as part of “previous” Iraq nuclear program and the controversy surrounding the sale of these furnaces and the investigations later on(link: http://www-personal.umich.edu/~sanders/214/other/news/iraqi_defector.html ). The irony is that this is not only a New York Times article but also it was written by JUDITH MILLER and JAMES RISEN once of the worst accusers (liars) that the Bush administration lied about Iraq WMD. Where are you Scott Shane????

Moreover, there are documents dated 1999-2001 that talk about Saddam regime projects to re-build some of the nuclear program facilities like RWTS (Radioactive Waste Treatment Station) and Radio-Chemistry laboratories which were part of Iraq previous clandestine nuclear program.

BUSH'S BOGUS DOCUMENT DUMP
While the world has watched claim after claim about Iraqi weapons of mass destruction dissolve like a mirage, the Bush administration has never deviated from one assertion in its shifting case for war: that there was an
operational connection between Saddam Hussein and al-Qaida.
As evidence of the manipulation of prewar intelligence keeps surfacing, the administration has now taken that equally dubious claim and made it virtual.
Lacking evidence of a real-world link between Saddam and the perpetrators of 9/11, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, headed by Bush appointee John Negroponte, has apparently decided to create one in cyberspace -- by seeding its new online Operation Iraqi Freedom Documents archive with suggestive jihadist materials, and by linking the site to an entirely unrelated database of al-Qaida materials.
OOPSY!!!
Now the New York Times has VALIDATED the Documents, and In doind so, VALIDATED Bush's reason for going to Iraq in the first place!!

If you copy and past the TEXT of the link in a page it works fine, that is what the link should have been pointing to, the Hyperlink is broken, Admin should be able to edit that so the links point to the intended pages.
Here is another leftist telling us that it's all a lie....

Looks like the Bushies are bypassing media and feeding misinformation directly to rightie bloggers.

Maybe Fitzgerald is like O'Reilly, turns himself into a pretzel to appear non-partisan. But I think that it is more likely that Fitzgerald is more interested in making a name for himself than he is upholding the law and fighting crime.
Thanks for fixing the links.
You might want to ask the mods to substitute clickable links in the original article.
BLOGGED and credited!

Excellent - the saturation blogging has begun...
Thank you Cindy :)
You're always welcome.
"But President Bush approved the site’s creation after Congressional Republicans proposed legislation to force the documents’ release."
They're celebrating over at the DUmp... saying that "this stuff was from before the FIRST Iraq War". They're expecting Bush to look bad over this, because he "authorized nuclear secrets being posted on the web." They're discussing how this will seal the election for them. Geesh...
Ok, I don't think mods can edit the posts, just the titles, but I'll check.
They were celebrating Jf'nK shooting his mouth of on Tues.
Let them Celebrate, just as they did over the Kerry "Smackdown" of Bush...
The Realization of it all will begin to slowly dawn on them early on Friday Afternoon....
Not to worry.
EIB is SO on it!
Let them delude themselves as they usually do...
Well, while he's addressing this head on, I hope he invites you to the ceremony.
Just trying to figure out when would be the best time - Before or After the address to present to you the Medal of Freedom.
LOL! I was thinking the same thing 30 minutes ago!
"Awarded for Defending America from it's terrorist enemies, both inside and outside of the Democratic Party"
Just as they're rolling out of bed... ;-)
