This all reminds me of the run-up to the blitzkrieg on Iraq, with Colin 
Powell testifying before the UN on the 'absolute certainty' that Saddam 
Hussein was purchasing yellowcake from Nigeria.

It's a prelude to something big, I fear.  No doubt more "shock and awe" 
coming, and from "the only democracy in the Middle East" - YECH!

No joke. There's a link to Petraeus' testimony in the original, but
the passage you cite comes from Bloomberg.:
