\nharmless shack in the part of Iraq controlled by the Kurdish opposition?\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n WM<\/b><\/td>\n \tAnd a British intelligence report…<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \n PN<\/b><\/td>\n \tDidn’t that turn out to be
\ncopied from an out-of-date graduate student paper?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n WM<\/b><\/td>\n \tAnd reports of mobile weapons labs…<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \n PN<\/b><\/td>\n \tWeren’t those just artistic renderings?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \n WM<\/b><\/td>\n \tAnd reports of Iraqis scuttling
\nand hiding evidence from inspectors…\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n PN<\/b><\/td>\n \tWasn’t that evidence
\ncontradicted by the chief weapons inspector, Hans Blix?\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n WM<\/b><\/td>\n \tYes, but there is plenty of other hard evidence that cannot be
\nrevealed because it would compromise our security.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/blockquote>\n
