I see the NYT story still refuses to acknowledge European press

reports that the bombing of the Chinese embassy was deliberate.

Sorry, I was out yesterday.

That's right. And the CIA's new explanation is ridiculous. I got a note today from Jens Holsoe, the Danish reporter who initiated the Observer-Politiken investigation. He says the CIA waited 11 months to come out with this new story in order to preempt anniversary commemorations of the bombing (May 7).

Jens also says that a dissident faction within the British parliament's foreign affairs committee--which is preparing a report on "Lessons of Kosovo"--knows the bombing was deliberate and wants to expose it in the report. Of course, the majority wants to follow the official line.

I have feeling that more will come out soon.
