Just out on FOX-- America's own Pravda.

Officials: White House Holding Back Report Detailing Iran's Meddling in Iraq
Tuesday, January 30, 2007

WASHINGTON, D.C. — A plan by the Bush administration to release detailed and possibly damning specific evidence linking the Iranian government to efforts to destabilize Iraq have been put on hold, U.S. officials told FOX News.

Officials had said a "dossier" against Iran compiled by the U.S. likely would be made public at a press conference this week in Baghdad, and that the evidence would contain specifics including shipping documents, serial numbers, maps and other evidence which officials say would irrefutably link Iran to weapons shipments to Iraq.

Now, U.S. military officials say the decision to go public with the findings has been put on hold for several reasons, including concerns over the reaction from Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad — as well as inevitable follow-up questions that would be raised over what the U.S. should do about it.

U.S. reaction to continued Iranian meddling in Iraq also was the subject Tuesday of a Senate Foreign Relations Committee confirmation hearing for John Negroponte, in line to become the nation's No. 2 diplomat. During pointed questioning, Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., told Negroponte, "What I think many of us are concerned about is that we stumble into active hostilities with Iran without having aggressively pursued diplomatic approaches, without the American people understanding exactly what's taking place."

Remember that one? The article published this December with big chunks redacted out by the White House?

It was an article about how Iran HELPED the U.S. after 9/11.

Casus belli, anyone?

10. "Fool me once, shame on you, fool me,.... er... ah... you can't get

fooled again... er... um... ah..."

If the powerful fall for this sh@t- AGAIN- we are toast.

The credibility gap under *'s ... leader-ship, makes the the Grand Canyon look like a barely discernible 'hair line crack'.


This is so blatantly obvious- and false.

Sept 17, 2002
"There's an old saying in Tennessee -- I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee -- that says, fool me once, shame on -- shame on you. Fool me -- you can't get fooled again. You've got to understand the nature of the regime we're dealing with. This is a man who has delayed, denied, deceived the world. For the sake of liberty and justice for all, the United Nations Security Council must act, must act in way to hold this regime to account, must not be fooled, must be relevant to keep the peace."

11. Right, Snippy. And Saddam Hussein was gonna buy uranium from Niger.

If Democrats are smart, they will begin to hammer home the litany of lies this failed former Texas Governor has tried to pawn off on the US -- and question the latest assertion.

[frylock]

12. if they're smart

14. Tom Clancy isnt finished writing it yet

He has to collaborate with curveball on it still

[paparush]

15. WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO TO STOP THIS LUNATIC!?!?!

I do not have faith that Congress will reign the Bush Regime in. They are cranking up the Rhetoric Machine to Shock and Awe levels. Everyday its something new...something else. Iran this and Iran that.

[Spazito]

16. They must be keeping it in the same place the British kept

the "other" evidence of Iraq trying to purchase yellowcake in Africa, the evidence that NEVER appeared! Geez, can these guys be any more obvious!

[Edweird]

17. They aren't even trying anymore...

BOHICA bend over here it comes again.
They know everybody knows they are lying through their teeth. They don't give a damn. They are gonna do it, no matter what, so the want us to STFU. Just shut up and take it. It'll be worse if you struggle.
Scumbags.:mad:

[Rosa Luxemburg]

18. not another one of these yellowcake dossiers surely?

[TexasLawyer]

20. Maybe that is why they are so concerned with

the "inevitable follow-up questions." Their allegations won't withstand the light of day or will be otherwise insufficient to justify neutralizing Iran.

[wicket]

21. These people are absolute pig fuckers

With no disrespect intended to any pigs who may be surfing DU :P

[BluePatriot]

22. Let me at those "shipping documents." Pleeease?

*works in freight and cargo*
