Craig Murray Britain's ambassador to Uzbekistan said: "I may be the new David Kelly but I have every intention of staying alive." Government scientist Dr. David Kelly was the whistleblower who was viciously attacked for leaking criticisms to the BBC's Andrew Gilligan and Susan Watts of the dossiers prepared by MI-6 in order to justify the Blair government's support for Washington's planned war against Iraq. He claimed that the highest government figures and Prime Minister Tony Blair's top adviser Alastair Campbell were involved in misleading parliament and the public by "sexing up" the dossiers in order to claim that Saddam Hussein possessed weapons of mass destruction that were a direct danger to world peace. The witch-hunt launched against Kelly by the government and his public naming as the source for Gilligan's reports led to his death. http://www.wsws.org/articles/2003/nov2003/uzbe-n22.shtml
