A big question is sitting in the background of the Iraq War, the Rove-Plame affair, and perhaps behind the entire Bush administration involvement in the Middle East. The documents (or at least one set of them) that state that Iraq was attempting to buy yellow-cake unranium from Niger were forged, and they were not especially good forgeries. The question - Who forged them and how did they get into the government decision processes.
Here is a story that purports to suggest some answers.
Don't take it as gospel. But it is more explanation than I have seen anywhere else, and it does appear plausible.
My bet is that the Bush administration knows what the story really is, but they either used it to start the Iraq war or they were fooled. In neither case will they want the story published. But it is going to come out sooner or later. It is too important not to.
