Phillips praises the BBC

Melanie Phillips finds out that the US has taken

"1.7 metric tons of radioactive material from Iraq"

from Iraq.

Obviously this is proof of WMD (to her - it isn't, of course) and means the war was right and George W Bush should be relected without an opposition etc etc. But then one of our country's 50 most foremost intellectuals (ha ha) says:

"No wonder this hasn't surfaced anywhere other than the BBC online service".

Er... the BBC? The same BBC as that of 'moral nihilism', 'gender fascism' and of course lashings of anti-US, anti-war-on-Iraq bias?

Does she not even try for consistency?
