Pretty much every military and intelligence expert in the world agrees that the recent intercepted letter is a fake. (Michelle Malkin has a link to the whole thing) Except, of course, Oliver North. He decided to use it in his column to explain why the stakes are so high in Iraq.

Which intelligence experts are these Chris? Identify the "experts" who insist the letter is a fake. I have thus far been unable to find anything on it that indicates someone thinks it is a fake, and if your assertion has any merit, I ought to be able to come up with something.
BTW, being a former Intelligence Marine, I can say with some knowledge of this subject that the information in the letter is on point as to their tactics and beliefs. I could tell you all how I know, but then I would have to kill all of ya.

I too am unable to find a source that claims that the letter is a fake.

I haven't found one. But then I'm still getting over the fact that I came up Miss Piggy in the muppet test. So I haven't been concentrating too hard on searching.

What Military anaylst said it was fake and the links you provided said no such thing either, Where did you make this up from? I think I'll listen to Oliver North before I'll listen to you on fake documents, are you now working for the Jihad?

US intelligence can't explain why Zarqawi would send greetings to himself:

Cat, that is very interesting. I'm not sure what that proves...perhaps the letter isn't actually addressed to Zarqawi, but rather some other Islamofascist bastard... Curious. Thanks for the follow-up...
