German Spies Helped US Target Sites In Iraq War
Not sure if I'm more happy for the help or more happy this will cause Gerhard Schroeder grief:
German spies in Baghdad helped U.S. warplanes strike at least one target during the 2003 Iraq war despite Berlin's statements it was not involved in the conflict, German media reported on Thursday.
The Sueddeutsche Zeitung newspaper and NDR television said two agents of Germany's BND foreign intelligence agency remained in Iraq throughout the war, supplying U.S. counterparts with information.
Off the wall optimistic speculation: Merkel is leaking this to create cover for any assistance she might provide to us.
