MI5 'probed BBC report'
A judicial inquiry into the apparent suicide of a government weapons adviser released new documents on Friday showing that intelligence agents tried to identify the source of a BBC story that questioned the accuracy of an official dossier on Iraq's weapons.

After the BBC broadcast quoted an anonymous source as saying the government had "sexed up" the dossier to strengthen its argument for a war in Iraq, weapons adviser David Kelly privately told his bosses at the Ministry of Defence that he had talked to the reporter.

Although Kelly denied having made the main claims quoted in the report, he was criticised by the ministry for having talked to the reporter without approval and was forced to testify before two parliamentary committees after his name was made public.

MI5 or the CIA assassinated him too! Do you actually think they care after mudering what they know are 40,000 other innocent people?

1. "As flies to wanton boys are we to the gods.....

Seriously though, if the security services really are doing a probe on Kelly, they might want to explore their archive material going back to the 60s and 70s and cross reference some of this material to their lexicon of aliases and DNA files for foreign organized crime residents of the UK. Sacrificial lambs usually leave a trail of blood back to the abattoir.
