Redactions leave question marks on former MI6 chief Sir Richard Dearlove's private testimony to Chilcot inquiry
Heavily redacted pages from the private testimony of Sir Richard Dearlove to the Chilcot inquiry
25 January 2011 - Never let it be said that Britain's spies do not have a sense of humour. Ninety-three pages of evidence (pdf) given in private to the Iraq inquiry by Sir Richard Dearlove, the former head of MI6, have finally been released. Unfortunately, they have been so heavily redacted by the censors that some are entirely black, save for a lone, enigmatic question mark.
Dearlove, known officially as C, for chief, was head of Britain's foreign intelligence service in the runup to the invasion. He has been criticised for helping the Blair government to "sex up" the Iraqi WMD dossier. But it would be hard to glean much evidence of this from pages that, for example, now only contain the phrase "OK, thank you." {continued}
We know the costs in blood, never to totally in civilians, but what of the costs in treasury still not paid! How much to buy the coalition of the willing, how much to buy the CIA rendition and secret prisons globalizing torture, how much for the decades to come as to the results of both wars, more. Neither has been paid for, rubber stamping and rapid deficit rises started Before 9/11 and nothing as to the peoples responsibility, the VA, as to just one of the needs in those results from!

In 2003 some 72% of Americans fully supported the Abandoning of the Missions and those Sent to Accomplish so extremely Quickly after 9/11!!At least some 95%, if not more as less then 1% serve them, not only still support the, just below, total lack of Sacrifice, they ran from any and all Accountability and left everything still on the table to be continually used if the political/military want was still in play in future executive/legislative wants!!
