This story is brief but delivers a concise record of the facts. It doesn't pretend to test theories or create further questions - it was on the other hand relentlessly factual for the bold points. Clearly the administration has reversed their position on the release of the photographs, however most news sources have omitted the origin of the original release. This story connects the dots very well and fairly.

Personally, I'm still believing that the Administration's rationale is sufficient for the time being; however, I reserve the right to put on the war-paint without delay should there be sufficient evidence of another game afoot.
