I am most interested in the official govt enquiry proceeding at the moment. It is seldom that the minutiae of who said what is revealed so completely, and so soon -much more likley for a sanitised version to appear 30 or 50 years later.
One thing i think has been overlooked is that the different languages may in part be to blame. For example, I wonder if perhaps the iraqi word for "oil" describes the process by which oil is created naturally, with the biomass being compressed and broken down. Also, arab languages might easily refer to anything made of metal as a "tool". So it follows that the phrase "oil pump" might easily be mis-translated as "biomass destruction tool" . This would have obvious results in the hands of the ex-news editors in Downing Street, especially if perhaps the user manual required such devices to be primed before use, for 45 minutes.
Separately, I understand that in readiness for the school holidays, the Blairs may have been overheard reading out loud from a guidebook to Canterbury Cathedral. His obedient minions on the other side of the door, anxious to please, may not have realised that the phrase "Oh who will rid me of this troublesome beast" was actually a quote from Henry II regarding the then awkward archbishop Thomas Beckett, and not TBlair verbalising his concern about the possible revelations of Dr Kelly.
A series of mistakes based on simple misunderstandings, but at least we've finally got to the bottom of it all.
