Colin Powell has raised doubts that he would have supported the war had he known there were no WMDs, while at the same time issuing statements insisting that war was the right thing. (BBC) He's having it both ways, and it's interesting to watch. Some text from Powell's interview with the Post (washingtonpost.com):

I don't know, because it was the stockpile that presented the final little piece that made it more of a real and present danger and threat to the region and to the world.... [the] absence of a stockpile changes the political calculus; it changes the answer you get.

And then he goes into a little backpedaling, and then cites the horrific acts that Hussein made against Iran with our support as proof of his evil. What a script!

Three teenage boys detailed by the US at Guantanamo Bay have been freed. (BBC) They haven't been identified, for fear of reprisals against them in their unnamed home country.

Earlier, the US Defense Department had said the boys were no longer a threat to the United States. (BBC) Doesn't that make you feel better? 13 year old boys are being held in prison without trial or charges because the United States is now afraid of foreign children??
