New evidence on Saddam's WMDs?
Intelligence Summit to unveil secret recordings

WASHINGTON – A former intelligence analyst currently working as a civilian contractor will unveil publicly what he believes to be recordings of Saddam Hussein's office meetings discussing his program of developing weapons of mass destruction at an International Intelligence Summit in the nation's capital next month.

The highly confidential audio was overlooked when it was found in a warehouse along with many other untranslated Iraqi intelligence files, according to the contractor. The recordings are very significant because they may contain audio of Saddam's secret intentions regarding weapons of mass destruction, he says.

Prior to 9/11, intelligence experts were convinced that Iraq was involved with weapons of mass destruction. However, no concrete evidence was found in the three years after the beginning of the Iraqi war.

The contractor who obtained and reviewed these tapes of historical significance plans to release them to the public Feb. 17, 2006 at the Intelligence Summit, a non-partisan, non-profit conference open to the public, scheduled to be held at the Hyatt Regency Crystal City Hotel in Arlington, Virginia.

The summit will feature speakers including Yossef Bodansky, the former director of the Congressional Task Force on Terrorism, WND's Joseph Farah, former CIA Director John Deutch, former CIA Director James Woolsey and Maj. General Paul Vallely, U.S. Army (ret.).

Following the presentation by the contractor of what he discovered, a panel of experts will discuss ways to verify if the tapes were actually recorded by Hussein. The procedures will include voiceprint analysis and other technical means of voice verification.

This is the second year of the Intelligence Summit and it has struck interest in law enforcement officials, as well as college and university professors. The summit is funded by non-profit organizations involved in funding intelligence research and anti-terrorism efforts.

Attorney John Loftus, president of the Intelligence Summit, recently stated, in regards to the highly confidential audiotapes, "Saddam's secret office recordings continued well into the year 2000. In all, they contain at least 12 hours of totally candid discussions with his senior aides. Clearly, after these tapes have been verified and corroborated, they will be able to provide a few definitive answers to some very important-and controversial-weapons of mass destruction questions."

According to Loftus, the contractor who obtained the tapes would like to remain anonymous until he makes his presentation.

The International Intelligence Summit is a non-partisan, non-profit, neutral organization that utilizes charitable funds to hold a conference that serves as a forum where personnel from Intelligence agencies throughout the free world and emerging democracies may gather to meet and exchange information about their experiences, expertise and ideas. In this way, the Intelligence Summit provides a unique opportunity for the Intelligence Community to listen and learn from each other so that they may share their resources to strengthen the war against terrorism.

Loftus formerly served as a federal prosecutor, and is an intelligence consultant for various television networks.

The advisory council of the summit includes two former CIA directors, several generals, a senior officer of the Mossad and the former chairman of the British Joint Intelligence Committee. This year' list of presenters includes top espionage, counter-terrorism leaders who work for many different agencies throughout the free world.

I await this unveiling with interest, if not more than a little cynicism. It sounds like a publicity exercise but no doubt will be closely observed by the established intelligence services who so clumsily overlooked this 'highly confidential audio'.  ;)

Even if they are found to be genuine voices that still doesn't make the things that were discussed genuine! Saddam was a master of laying false trails and calling the bluff of both his neighbours and the West.

In the end his games were his undoing but will provide theories for 'non-partisan, non-profit, neutral organization that utilize charitable funds' to have cosy conferences ad nauseum.

Hello Halycon_Daze,

I see that you are new, so WELCOME!!


The entire world knows that Saddam had WMDs - the only question is when he got rid of most of it. In terms of so-called confidential material, there are warehouses full of material that have that potential, and they haven't been translated yet. You can count on the fact that the world hasn't heard about much that has been translated. It could easily be years before average people get the facts, especially since many other players are involved (i.e. Syria, Iran, North Korea, France, Germany, China, Russia, and others). So, some information might not ever be released. The political concerns and dangers yet to face could easily outweigh the need to prove that Saddam did indeed have WMDs.

Love In Christ,

Philippians 4:6 NASB  Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

Thanks for your welcome.  :)  (I must have been in a daze yesterday - couldn't spell my username  :-[  now corrected)  

I'm genuinely surprised that there are still people convinced that Saddam actually possessed WMD. Like many I did believe it at the time he was giving Hans Blix the run around and defying the UN. I believed our PM Tony Blair when he led us to believe we were in iminent danger of attack!  

We all now know that the facts were twisted & exaggerated and people like scientist Dr David Kelly who dared to voice his deep concerns to the Press paid with his life.

Now many more lives are being, and will continue to be, lost daily - our troops, Iraqis queuing to help Police their country, aid workers, contract workers, anyone unlucky enough to walk past the next bomb......where does it end? What has been achieved? The removal of a ruthless dictator....yet we do nothing to free the people of Zimbabwe from Mugabe's cruel regime.

We invaded another country without justification - simple. If there had been evidence there it would have been produced within a very short period of time after the invasion. Now we are stuck with the obligation to finish what we started. How long do you think democracy in Iraq will take to establish?  :-\

I suppose this topic caught my attention because it's as if it isn't bad enough that we are left in this mess without some sort of 'cloak and dagger' intelligence summit who claim that they have such crucial information that they can wait another MONTH to reveal it.......how many more atrocities will have happened in Iraq by then?  

Hello Again Halcyon_Daze,

I really think that everything boils down to something very simple: We either fight the terrorist on their turf, or we fight them on our turf while they are killing and bombing our innocent people.

Unfortunately, I think that we will be fighting them on our turf sooner or later, regardless. We won't enjoy living like Israel has for many years, but we won't have much of a choice.

Then, there are the ultimate questions to answer. Is this the end days or a preview of the end days of this age of Grace? Is Bible Prophecy unfolding before our very eyes? If so, no man or nation will be able to delay or hasten God's plan by a second. Regardless, we will still have a choice of either defending ourselves or dying.

Now, we have both been attacked on our own soil, and this is only the beginning. Disengaging the terrorists around the world will simply bring the terrorists to our own soil, so it's currently a simple choice of where the battles will be fought. Nobody lied to us or mislead us at the beginning of this conflict. They gave us the best information available, and the entire world believed it. WHY? - It was all true at one time - it's just a matter of when the proof was moved. Many thousands of innocent people were killed with Saddam's WMDs, so there is no question about whether he had them or not. The entire world knows this as a fact, and the mass graves with the people who were killed by them are still being discovered. The estimates of innocents killed is between 300,000 to 1.3 MILLION. We can also be sure that they and their associates would love to do the same thing or worse on our soil. I seriously doubt that we will send invitations for the terrorists to come kill us, but maybe we will.

Love in Christ,
Tom

Hebrews 10:23-25 NASB  Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful; and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near.
