BREAKING NEWS: US HAS ONLY COPY OF IRAQ DECLARATION.

by former liberal (j12r [at] excite.com)
US HAS ONLY COPY OF COMPLETE IRAQ DECLARATION.
12/9/02 BREAKING NEWS: US HAS ONLY COPY OF COMPLETE IRAQ DECLARATION.
"Deputy Russian Ambassador Gennady Gatilov said the United States had taken
the council's lone copy to Washington where it would make duplicates for
distribution to the four other powerful council members." I don't know how
the US Government pulled this off, but if I were Iraq I would immediately
make the entire document public, because right now there is no way to verify
that the copies the US is giving to the other Security Council members are
accurate. I mean, why does the document have to go to DC for copying? Are
there no Xerox machines or CD-Burners in New York City?

The above article is not complete and the original
poster does not have all the facts.

The United States, the IAEA, the UNMOVIC
and the UN security council (which includes
Russia, England, China and France) all have
copies.

After "critical information about building weapons
of mass desctruction" (I personally thinks thats
a load of BS, do they think any group is going to
magically start building nuclear weapons after
reading this reportt?) is blacked out of the report,
it will be distributed to the rest of the rotating
members of the un security council.

so... no i do not think there is a grand conspiracy
to suppress the report or have the US control
the only working copy.

"UN Secretary General Kofi Annan has described as "unfortunate" the Security Council's handling of the Iraqi weapons declaration, amid continuing discontent over Washington's role in the matter.
...

Mr Annan - responding to questions from BBC World Service listeners - said the decision to allow the US to take the only complete copy of the document to edit it before it was released to non-permanent Council members "was fine, but the approach and style were wrong".
