I see in The Observer today an interesting development regarding those "Iraqi mobile biological warfare production units" that Bush has been going on about so triumphantly, anytime reporters ask "Where are the WMDs ?"

It now appears they aren't anything of the sort, but that that "the units were designed to be used for hydrogen production to fill artillery balloons, part of a system originally sold to Saddam by Britain in 1987."

(And maybe it's as well to point out that The Observer actually supported the war. Mind you, at the time the paper believed the stuff about how Iraq was bristling with Weapons of Mass Destruction that could be unleashed within a few minutes.)

Somehow I can't see Bush apologising for misleading people over this. Well, he wouldn't would be?
