"Curveball" Speaks

It was intelligence attributed to Alwan -- as Curveball -- that the White House used in making its case that Saddam Hussein possessed weapons of mass destruction. He described what turned out to be fictional mobile germ factories. The CIA belatedly branded him a liar.

Okay, so reading through the article, this man has been branded a liar, a cheat, undependable, etc...

And our government took this man's information, whether they truly believed it or not, and spoke, as fact, that Iraq had WMDs? This entire article speaks about how he was the secret informant that fed our government the information needed to justify the invasion. The article also speaks about how suspect this guy and his information is. And now that things are all bad with Iraq, they are calling him out as "corrupt" and a blatant "liar".

Um... what is the government's purpose of exposing this guy and then admitting they ran with his "suspect" information, and now that s*** hit the fan, they are running him into the ground. So... the government is obviously passing the blame... but at the same time admitting their inexcusable ignorance at having listened to this guy? And even if they are using him as a patsy, they are showing to the public an image that they are utterly incompetent while in the background knowing the real motives behind the invasion? I'm confused.

Wow, it is crazy how nobody has replied to the implications of this article. This man basically admitted that the information that the invasion of Iraq was based upon was a fallicy. Hmm...

It is frightening how much weight was put upon such a dishonest man, and how our all-powerful government could have possibly got that one wrong... that they would actually send out troops out there under this false pretense... this story is utter bull. They knew exactly why they were going into Iraq and this story was not a part of the real reason. It wast the cover... of course.

It still amazes me on a daily basis that our troops are still out there for this suspect government. They are literally giving their lives with the mindset that it is for the country when it is, in fact, for the rich and powerful of our country. How do the ones in power live with themselves?

Hi

I have only just come across the book "Curveball" by Bob Drogin, published by Edbury Press in 2007. My co-blogger has just posted on the book, with a lesson which can be drawn from it, for the UFO research community. The post is worth a look, at
