Powell admits Iraq evidence mistakeSCBBC

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.

On Friday he conceded that information "appears not to be... that solid".

Mr Powell said the US intelligence officers "indicated to me" that the information about the mobile labs was reliable, and "I made sure it was multi-sourced".

It is the first time Mr Powell has acknowledged key evidence he used to make the case for war may have been wrong, says the BBC's Jannat Jalil in Washington.

So, just where did Powell admit Iraq evidence mistake? I couldn't find it in your own article!

And if that didn't get you mad at the US, then maybe this will.

He was questioned following allegations from ex-White House counter-terrorism aide Richard Clarke that Mr Bush and his colleagues were so preoccupied with launching a war on Iraq, that they missed the growing threat from al-Qaeda.

Strange, I seem to remember they were busy launching a war on Afghanistan. Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria or Iran what's the difference? On the other hand, they sure were slow. I mean what was it, nearly two years after 911 before the Iraq war?

Richard Clarke as a source? Man, SCBBC, get a grip. No self-respecting journalist would use such a widely discredit source. But then you are the SCBBC.
