They don't give up

The anti-war lobby has now set about rubbishing David Kay's report. The Guardian today splashes with the shock horror revelation that the Iraqi scientist who had been hiding botulinum had been concealing it since 1993. This somehow is supposed to make the finding worthless. Why?

The whole point was the suspicion that Saddam had not destroyed the supplies of WMD naterial he was known to have had for years. And by singling out this one finding, the Guardian omits Kay's discovery of an entire clandestine biological programme that was concealed from Blix, and which was being frantically hidden even after the war had started. It seems there is no limit to the twisting of this story.
