A sharp-eyed ASZ reader caught this article that ran in the NYTimes the other day:
WASHINGTON, Jan. 12 - Newly disclosed documents in the John Walker Lindh case appear to conflict with assertions made to Congress by Michael Chertoff, nominated this week as homeland security secretary, about the Justice Department's handling of ethics concerns in the high-profile prosecution...
I also received an email from Allan Duncan pointing to a current story on Operation Diamondback from Friday evening's Dateline NBC. Allan's working furiously to connect all of the dots - and it would certainly be exceptionally bizarre if Chertoff had some connection (in a Bobby Simone / Nicky Scarfo kind of way) to A.Q. Kahn's nuclear MLM scheme.
