Powell Admits Iraq Evidence Mistake

Here’s a shocker:

Powell admits Iraq evidence mistake

US Secretary of State Colin Powell has admitted that evidence he submitted to the United Nations to justify war on Iraq may have been wrong.

In February last year he told the UN Security Council that Iraq had developed mobile laboratories for making biological weapons.

On Friday he conceded that information “appears not to be… that solid”.

The claim failed to persuade the Security Council to back the war, but helped sway US public opinion.

Mr Powell said he hoped the commission appointed to investigate pre-war intelligence on Iraq would examine whether the intelligence community was justified in backing the claim.

Could it really be? The evidence wasn’t the best in the world? Who would of thought???

Besides all of us who don’t believe in the neocon agenda.
