We recognise that we can't afford...
Help me here. Why how could the "author" of this email misspell his own name in his return email address (is it Kozu or Koza)? If he is an American why is he using British spelling (emphasize, recognize are American spellings)? If this British rag modified the spelling, what else did they "correct," or make up?
This is pretty flimsy evidence anyway, judging by the Observer's defense of it: The language and content of the memo were judged to be authentic by three former intelligence operatives shown it by The Observer. We were also able to establish that Frank Koza (sic) does work for the NSA and could confirm his senior post in the Regional Targets section of the organisation. Wow, that's convincing.
Remember, anyone can say anything, especially in cyberspace.
Sorry! :P
Likewise the spelling of favourable.
Seems hard for me to believe that stuff like this would be put in writing, let alone a single memo, even if true.
