There are things we don't want you to know



From ABC News:
The Bush Administration apparently does not want a U.S. military study that found no direct connection between Saddam Hussein and al Qaeda to get any attention. This morning, the Pentagon cancelled plans to send out a press release announcing the report's release and will no longer make the report available online.
The report was to be posted on the Joint Forces Command website this afternoon, followed by a background briefing with the authors. No more. The report will be made available only to those who ask for it, and it will be sent via U.S. mail from Joint Forces Command in Norfolk, Virginia.

It won't be emailed to reporters and it won't be posted online
This report is the result of thorough review of over 600,000 Iraqi documents. And one of the findings that stands out is this:


Which only confirms what we have known for some time.

Now why would George W. Bush NOT WANT YOU TO KNOW THIS?

Because it proves that they fabricated the reasons for the invasion and occupation of Iraq.



Yes, the report verifies Saddam's links with various terrorist groups or at least cooperation when they had overlapping goals, but not with Al Qaeda.

Joe Sudbay reports on this at Americablog also.
