I've read Iraq's weapons of mass destruction: The assessment of the British Government, and I find that I agree with David Aaronovitch - this is a case for action, not a case for war.
Vattekkat seems to be unhappy about mention of "some Indian companies". Having read the full dossier, I find mention of only one Indian company. The Indian government suspended this company's export license. You can find unscrupulous companies in any country - God knows there are enough of them here. The Indian government acted entirely properly. Why does Vattekkat think that this reflects badly on India?
