Dear Mr. Awbi, What explanation do you and/or your friend have for why Hamza's claims about his job title, responsibilities and importance have been accepted by the press and lay public? Below is an excerpt from my E-mail to Colin Rowat. I would appreciate your comments. Best wishes, Nathaniel Hurd, Research Associate "To be a momentary conspiracy theorist, did the CIA just accept Hamza's claims? Or, did the CIA and/or some other U.S. organ help Hamza fabricate tales and "facts" to make Iraq's nuclear program seem like more threatening and advanced than it actually was/is? I.e., so that Iraq's nuclear program would seem like, "the greatest threat." In the above assisted fabrication scenario, Hamza becomes internationally important (professional appointments, book sales, speaking fees, star appearances at prestigious non-proliferation conferences, etc.) and the U.S. has its nuclear threat." **************************************************** Boston Research Group (BRG) 2161 Massachusetts Avenue Cambridge, MA 02140 USA Tel.: 617-492-4570 Fax: 617-354-2832 E-mail: brg1@bellatlantic.net **************************************************** -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a discussion list run by the Campaign Against Sanctions on Iraq For removal from list, email soc-casi-discuss-request@lists.cam.ac.uk Full details of CASI's various lists can be found on the CASI website: http://www.casi.org.uk
