LONDON, England -- The British government has been accused of basing its latest Iraq dossier on old material, including an article by an American post-graduate student.

Large chunks of the 19-page report -- highlighted by U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell at the U.N. as a "fine paper ... which describes in exquisite detail Iraqi deception activities" -- contains large chunks lifted from other sources, according to several academics.

Brad I quote from your post that I disputed "heh btw powells un address was plaigarized from a ten year old college term paper. Now I quote the article you linked to for your proof "highlighted by U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell at the U.N. as a "fine paper ... which describes in exquisite detail....."

Brad how does caliing Tony Blairs report "a fine paper" translate into Colin Powells report as being plagarism? You do not even have a grip on the facts much lesss have you "got me". If you are keeping score it would be 0-2 dear Brad.

I don't think that was his point. Anyway, whatever anyone's point is, it is now not under dispute by either side that much of a British intelligence report on Iraq which has been used to justify policy on Iraq and which Powell used as a (small)part of his ccase at the UN was plagiarised from a 10-year old PhD thesis.
