Now you're stooping to a tu quoque logical fallacy. To humour you for a bit, it was the CIA who got it all wrong about the Iraqi WMDs. Baby Bush and Bambi Blair bought the story and foolishly went to war. In contrast, NATO partners Germany and France infuriated the Yank neocons by refusing to join this not-so-grand coalition. In other words, there was anything but unanimity about Iraqi WMDs in the "West". Since you're Australian (or at least profess to be), maybe you could offer us some insight as to why Australia fell for it.
So you prefer intriguing conspiracy theories to the obvious. The Russians are always counting on plausible deniability getting them off the hook, but with their pattern of behaviour of late, plausibility has started to work against them. As just stated by USA, UK, Germany and France, there's no plausible alternative that absolves Russia. For their own sake, Russia should explain their involvement, but as we now know, they didn't seize the opportunity. Sure, they'll try to sow doubt with vague technicalities (and you'll parrot all of them here), but all the same Russia won't escape global condemnation, becoming even more the pariah state than that it is already.
