リークにうろたえる英政府（ガーディアン、タイムズ報道）
それにしてもニューヨーク・タイムズに機密文書のコピーがリークされた、というのもまた興味深い話です。英国の新聞はこれがブレアー政権を大いにうろたえさせていることを報道しています。
３・１１後のトンチンカンな対応でアスナールがズッコケさせられたと同じように、今度はブレアーがズッコケさせられるのかな？ だとすると、ブレアーとストロウに「イラクと無関係」と断言させた要素とＮＹタイムズにこのメモをリークさせた要素が重なっていることになる。面白い話だ。

Intelligence 'warned of Iraq terror link'
・・・・・・
A report by the Joint Terrorist Analysis Centre - which includes officials from MI5, MI6, GCHQ and the police - explicitly linked US-led involvement in Iraq with terrorist activity in the UK although it concluded that no group currently had the "intent and the capability" to mount an attack, the New York Times said.
・・・・・・
The leak will embarrass the prime minister, Tony Blair, and other ministers who yesterday flatly rejected a thinktank report's conclusion that the Iraq conflict had increased the terror threat to the UK.
Both Downing Street and the Foreign Office refused to comment on today's claims. "We do not comment on leaked documents," the prime minister's official spokesman said. A Foreign Office spokesman added: "We do not comment on alleged leaks, whatever they are."

Official report 'linked terror risk to Iraq'
・・・・・・
The newspaper reported that it was the document's conclusion that led to the lowering of the level of terrorist threat alert in London shortly before the bombings.
Home Secretary Charles Clarke and the Metropolitan Police insisted in the immediate aftermath of the atrocities that the lowering of the threat level had no practical effect on security precautions taken in the capital.
The leaks will embarrass Prime Minister Tony Blair and other ministers who yesterday flatly rejected claims in a think tank report that the conflict in Iraq had increased the terror threat to the UK.

Leaked security services memo said Britain was safe
Britain's security status was downgraded less than a month before the London bombings because the security services were confident that there was no-one in Britain capable of carrying out a terror attack, it emerged today.
・・・・・・
The memo, which will be highly embarrassing to the Government, said that there was no imminent threat of attack. "At present there is not a group with both the current intent and the capability to attack the UK," it said, according to a leaked copy obtained by The New York Times.
In a further embarrassment, the assessment also clearly states that the Iraq war had made Britain more vulnerable to terrorists - something the Government angrily denies.
