New site focuses on Downing St Memo


This site sets out to explain to Americans the documents that have made the news in the UK and elsewhere.

"The Downing Street "Memo" is actually a document containing meeting minutes transcribed during the British Prime Minister's meeting on July 23, 2002—eight months PRIOR to the invasion of Iraq in March 2003. The Times of London printed the text of this document on Sunday, May 1, 2005. Since then, several other leaked UK government documents have come to light. Together they present a disturbing picture of a President obsessed with invasion, and a loyal ally troubled both by how it could be justified and by what it would bring.

"This site is intended as a resource for anyone who wants to understand the meaning and context of these documents as they relate to the Bush administration's case for war."
