World Threats

On a recent edition of the “The Loftus Report” radio show,  former talk radio powerhouse John Batchelor describes how he spoke to a deputy chief of intelligence of a “Middle Eastern ally of the U.S.” who described to him that his service tracked rocket motors arriving in Syria from an “Asian country,” whereupon they went to Iraq.

Then, as the U.S. invasion became imminent, his service watched as the motors were loaded onto trucks and driven into warehouses in Syria. Batchelor opined that the intelligence was used by the U.S. political leadership to justify the invasion because it came from other countries’ sources and doing so would undermine the intelligence relationships we had with those countries.
