SYRIA'S NUKES: BOLTON RIGHT ALL ALONG

Larwyn sent these remarks from JMF, ...."And Condi didn't fight to keep Bolton..sigh. [....]You just cannot win with these people." Frankly Larwyn, not only did Condirasha not fight to keep  Bolton, this nation's greatest weapon, but I think she secretly worked very much against him, IMAO.

"Of course, back in 2003, John Bolton raised the specter of Syria developing nukes, but was dismissed by some in the intelligence community.

Apparently, he was right all along. The progress of the site in late 2003 also raises new questions about a disagreement at the time between intelligence analysts and John R. Bolton, then the State Department's top arms control official."

I assure you I will be addressing these questions with JtotheB on the return of my radio show, Atlas on the Air, November 5th.

NY Times Faults Bush on Syrian Nuke Program Jammie Wearing Fool hat tip Larwyn

In the summer of 2003, Mr. Bolton's testimony on Capitol Hill was delayed after a dispute erupted in part over whether Syria was actively pursuing a nuclear weapon. Some intelligence officials said Mr. Bolton overstated the Syrian threat.

"There was disagreement about what Syria was interested in and how much we should be monitoring it," Mr. Bolton said in an interview yesterday. "There was activity in Syria that I felt was evidence that they were trying to develop a nuclear program."

I wonder who those intelligence officials are and whether they're man enough to step up and apologize to Bolton?

Bolton was indeed right. And so is Josef Bodansky.
