Public document? Not so much, Pentagon says


WASHINGTON — The Pentagon on Wednesday canceled plans for broad public release of a study that found no pre-Iraq war link between late Iraqi President Saddam Hussein and the al Qaida terrorist network.



Rather than posting the report online and making officials available to discuss it, as had been planned, the U.S. Joint Forces Command said it would mail copies of the document to reporters — if they asked for it. The report won't be posted on the Internet.

I can't imagine why they wouldn't want you to read it but...oh, wait...



The study comes at a difficult time for the Bush administration.



Well then. I guess I can.
