Expert blasts Brits' bogus wmd files
From the UK Mirror, 6/20: Tony Blair's main dossier on the threat from Iraq's alleged weapons of mass destruction was "flawed" and based on "garbage grade" intelligence sources.

A former senior Australian intelligence analyst yesterday told MPs the dossier had been polished by a "marketing man" to persuade Parliament and the public to back military action.

Andrew Wilkie, who quit as intelligence adviser to Australian PM John Howard three months ago, said he resigned because he felt people in Britain, America and Australia were misled.

A US soldier was killed and two others wounded yesterday in a rocket-grenade attack. It was the third US fatality in 24 hours.
