FROST: (ON TV) And what about the
situation of persuading the people?
17
00:01:59,522 --> 00:02:00,823
Because it's very,
to put it mildly
18
00:02:00,825 --> 00:02:03,490
uncomfortable to go to war
with 73% against.
19
00:02:03,492 --> 00:02:06,394
TONY BLAIR: If people are being
asked today do you support a war,
20
00:02:06,396 --> 00:02:09,697
my answer to that
is we're not at war today.
21
00:02:09,699 --> 00:02:11,934
I think especially,
obviously, if the UN pass
22
00:02:11,936 --> 00:02:13,567
the second resolution,
as I believe they will
23
00:02:13,569 --> 00:02:16,037
if the inspectors carry on
saying he's not cooperating,
24
00:02:16,039 --> 00:02:17,972
I think public opinion
is in a different place.
25
00:02:17,974 --> 00:02:20,741
When your correspondent
was saying
26
00:02:20,743 --> 00:02:23,345
the war is inevitable,
war is not inevitable.
27
00:02:23,347 --> 00:02:25,113
It depends on Saddam.
28
00:02:25,115 --> 00:02:27,516
If he cooperates
with the inspectors,
29
00:02:27,518 --> 00:02:29,817
if he says
how much material he's got,
30
00:02:29,819 --> 00:02:31,752
if he cooperates fully
with them,
31
00:02:31,754 --> 00:02:32,854
then the issue's over.
32
00:02:32,856 --> 00:02:34,489
But he's not doing that
at the moment.
33
00:02:34,491 --> 00:02:36,291

00:02:36,293 --> 00:02:38,125
They're all

You know, actually,
I don't think they are.

inspectors are lying.

00:02:52,641 --> 00:02:56,445

We don't know that.
46

I mean, he just keeps
repeating the lie.
47

You sure it's a lie?
Saddam's a psychopath.
48

you're the Prime Minister,

you have the goods on him now?

that he's developing these weapons

00:20:19,153 --> 00:20:20,621
There's no info
saying who sent it.
346
00:20:20,623 --> 00:20:22,325
This could have been
written by anyone.
347
00:20:23,858 --> 00:20:26,128
- That's who wrote it.
- Well.
348
00:20:27,328 --> 00:20:28,862
Frank Koza.
349
00:20:28,864 --> 00:20:31,765
- Who the fuck is Frank Koza?
- NSA.
350
00:20:31,767 --> 00:20:34,067
And this I know
because the letters NSA
351
00:20:34,069 --> 00:20:37,170
have been written on the back
with a leaky ballpoint.
352
00:20:37,172 --> 00:20:39,139
My source says
the header wasn't printed
353
00:20:39,141 --> 00:20:41,878
to protect the recipients
at GCHQ.
354
00:20:43,846 --> 00:20:44,911
When did you get it?
355
00:20:44,913 --> 00:20:46,314
- Two weeks ago.
- Two weeks?
356
00:20:46,316 --> 00:20:48,715
I gave it to The Mirror first.
Sorry.
357
00:20:48,717 --> 00:20:50,985
Jesus. Why didn't
they run it?
358
00:20:50,987 --> 00:20:53,220
- They thought it was fake.
- No shit.
359
00:20:53,222 --> 00:20:56,256
- Is your source NSA?
- No. A friend of the recipient.
360
00:20:56,258 --> 00:20:58,659
- A good friend.
- A friend of a friend?
361
00:20:58,661 --> 00:21:01,629
A good friend
of a trusted friend.
362
00:21:01,631 --> 00:21:02,896
I'm sure it's real.
363
00:21:02,898 --> 00:21:04,565
Then why don't you
write the story?
364
00:21:04,567 --> 00:21:06,132
Oh, come on, Martin.
365
00:21:06,134 --> 00:21:09,105
I'm anti-war.
You're with The Observer.
366
00:21:09,904 --> 00:21:12,107
Just check it out.

How may I assist you?
369
00:21:28,857 --> 00:21:30,123
Yes, hi, hello there.
370
00:21:30,125 --> 00:21:32,793
This is Martin Bright
from The Observer in London.
371
00:21:32,795 --> 00:21:34,562
Um, I'd like to arrange
an interview
372
00:21:34,564 --> 00:21:36,229
with Mr. Frank Koza.
373
00:21:36,231 --> 00:21:38,732
May I speak
to his office, please?
374
00:21:38,734 --> 00:21:41,869
- I'm sorry, Mr. Bright?
- Martin Bright, yes.
375
00:21:41,871 --> 00:21:43,370
Yes. Who did you wanna get?
376
00:21:43,372 --> 00:21:47,106
Frank Koza, "Chief of Staff,
Regional Targets."
377
00:21:47,108 --> 00:21:48,976
Mr. Bright, I'm afraid
we can't confirm
378
00:21:48,978 --> 00:21:51,111
the names of people
who work here.
379
00:21:51,113 --> 00:21:52,646
Could you give me
a little more detail
380
00:21:52,648 --> 00:21:54,280
about the story
you're working on?
381
00:21:54,282 --> 00:21:57,651
Uh, well, no. That's something
I need to talk to Mr. Koza
382
00:21:57,653 --> 00:21:59,055
about directly, I'm afraid.
383
00:22:00,923 --> 00:22:03,757
Well, then I'm afraid
I'm not sure I can help you.
384
00:22:03,759 --> 00:22:05,025
When you have a little
more detail
385
00:22:05,027 --> 00:22:07,594
- please feel free to call back.
- (LINE DISCONNECTS)
386
00:22:07,596 --> 00:22:08,865
Yeah, well...
387
00:22:10,266 --> 00:22:11,798
Hello?
388
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:14,602
- You rang the NSA Press Office?
- Yeah.
389
00:22:14,604 --> 00:22:15,736
They have a press office.
390
00:22:15,738 --> 00:22:17,171
I thought that was
a good place to start.
391
00:22:17,173 --> 00:22:18,405
But you didn't
tell them anything?
392
00:22:18,407 --> 00:22:20,807
No, Peter.
I just asked for Frank Koza.
393
00:22:20,809 --> 00:22:22,276
Because if this is real,
you could go to jail
394
00:22:22,278 --> 00:22:25,178
just for having it
in your possession.
395
00:22:25,180 --> 00:22:27,014
MARTIN: I'm not letting this go.
It's too good a story.
396
00:22:27,016 --> 00:22:28,415
PETER: I agree,
but if you get it wrong
397
00:22:28,417 --> 00:22:30,617
it will sink you,
it will sink the paper.
398
00:22:30,619 --> 00:22:32,786
I'd like to get a credible
intelligence expert
399
00:22:32,788 --> 00:22:34,521
to offer a view
on the language.
400
00:22:34,523 --> 00:22:36,489
- Yeah.
- And I thought you could run it by
401
00:22:36,491 --> 00:22:37,993
your MI6 contact?
402
00:22:38,961 --> 00:22:40,961
- I don't have a MI6 contact.
- Sorry.
403
00:22:40,963 --> 00:22:43,031
I meant your
tennis club friend.
404
00:22:44,266 --> 00:22:45,164
Sure.
405
00:22:45,166 --> 00:22:46,999
I'll take it
to Admiral Wilkinson.
406
00:22:47,001 --> 00:22:48,834
Be careful.
Before we risk
407
00:22:48,836 --> 00:22:50,670
a D-notice
against publication
408
00:22:50,672 --> 00:22:54,475
I'd actually like confirmation
that Frank Koza exists.
409
00:22:54,477 --> 00:22:55,942
Do you think
it's authentic?
410
00:22:55,944 --> 00:22:57,678
Well, certainly
the words he used,
411
00:22:57,680 --> 00:22:59,380
"TOPI," for example,
412
00:22:59,382 --> 00:23:01,181
few outside
of the security apparatus
413
00:23:01,183 --> 00:23:02,449
would know
what that means.
414
00:23:02,451 --> 00:23:03,584
What does it mean?
415
00:23:03,586 --> 00:23:05,652
Target of
primary interest.
416
00:23:05,654 --> 00:23:09,122
And this term,
"QRC surge effort,"
417
00:23:09,124 --> 00:23:10,657
that's NSA military speak
418
00:23:10,659 --> 00:23:14,428
for significant intensification
of surveillance operations.
419
00:23:14,430 --> 00:23:17,396
And this, where they ask
for "valuable information
420
00:23:17,398 --> 00:23:21,501
"from accesses
in your product lines..."
421
00:23:21,503 --> 00:23:24,638
...product lines
are intelligence sources.
422
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:25,939
So it's been
written by someone
423
00:23:25,941 --> 00:23:27,574
who's familiar
with security speak
424
00:23:27,576 --> 00:23:29,609
but that doesn't mean
it's definitely NSA.
425
00:23:29,611 --> 00:23:32,179
True, but there are no
obvious amateur mistakes.
426
00:23:32,181 --> 00:23:34,951
- Have you heard of Frank Koza?
- No.
427
00:23:37,185 --> 00:23:40,653
Paul, if we, if we wanted
to confirm that he exists...
428
00:23:40,655 --> 00:23:42,989
(CHUCKLES) Oh, sorry.
I couldn't help you do that.
429
00:23:42,991 --> 00:23:44,290
Yeah, but if we wanted
to confirm that he...
430
00:23:44,292 --> 00:23:47,062
Well, my own sources
wouldn't ever trust me again.
431
00:23:47,997 --> 00:23:49,231
Understood.
432
00:23:50,766 --> 00:23:51,865

Are you on speaker?
439
00:24:04,145 --> 00:24:05,612
We are now. Hey...
440
00:24:05,614 --> 00:24:08,614
Peter, you need to tell Roger
to publish what I'm filing.
441
00:24:08,616 --> 00:24:11,619
This paper can't be seen
to be supporting a war
442
00:24:11,621 --> 00:24:13,487
that we should be doing
everything in our power
443
00:24:13,489 --> 00:24:14,721
to expose as a con.
444
00:24:14,723 --> 00:24:17,091
A neocon.
A giant fucking con!
445
00:24:17,093 --> 00:24:19,192
Ed, that's why we're phoning.
We need your help.
446
00:24:19,194 --> 00:24:21,629
We have something
that might corroborate
447

you could say.

00:24:37,913 --> 00:24:39,778
Lunch. Eat.
Now. Yes.

00:24:39,780 --> 00:24:42,481
Oh, no,
I'm fine, thanks.

It, um...
455
00:24:46,255 --> 00:24:48,521
This new BBC poll,
it says that less than one in ten people
456
00:24:48,523 --> 00:24:52,226
think it's right to attack
Iraq without a UN resolution.
457
00:24:52,228 --> 00:24:55,062
Which is why that memo was sent.
They need to twist arms.

it will make any difference.
459
00:24:56,531 --> 00:24:58,466

Oh, well, then that's odd.

I'm sorry, but I'll need

Do you have
an extension number?

Ah...

00:25:29,699 --> 00:25:31,565

PETER: So I read the weapons
inspector's report.
481
00:25:46,449 --> 00:25:48,315
JACQUELINE:
Oh, congratulations.
482
00:25:48,317 --> 00:25:50,484
That's more
than most MP's ever done.
483
00:25:50,486 --> 00:25:53,385
- Well, shit, that's depressing.
- Mmm-hmm. It is.
484
00:25:53,387 --> 00:25:55,622
Look, there are a few
pre-98 chemical weapons
485
00:25:55,624 --> 00:25:57,591
we have yet to be accounted
for but inspectors said
486
00:25:57,593 --> 00:25:59,258
they found absolutely
no evidence
487
00:25:59,260 --> 00:26:01,594
of an active chemical
or biological program.
488
00:26:01,596 --> 00:26:02,662
Correct.
489
00:26:02,664 --> 00:26:03,729
And yet Colin Powell presented
490
00:26:03,731 --> 00:26:05,364
clear evidence of mobile labs.
491
00:26:05,366 --> 00:26:08,802
His evidence may be based
on poor human intel
492
00:26:08,804 --> 00:26:10,437
from an Iraqi dissident.
493
00:26:10,439 --> 00:26:11,305
Really?
494
00:26:11,307 --> 00:26:12,405
The dissident
isn't our product
495
00:26:12,407 --> 00:26:14,276
and should not be seen
as our product.
496
00:26:15,810 --> 00:26:17,413
Whose product is he then?
497
00:26:19,448 --> 00:26:22,615
Look, Peter,
I didn't say this,
498
00:26:22,617 --> 00:26:25,151
but there is concern
in certain quarters
499
00:26:25,153 --> 00:26:28,322
that intelligence
may be being manipulated
500
00:26:28,324 --> 00:26:30,224
to take this country to war.
501
00:26:30,226 --> 00:26:32,159
So why don't you tell
your journalists
502
00:26:32,161 --> 00:26:34,361
to stop being so bloody loyal
to Downing Street
503
00:26:34,363 --> 00:26:36,298
and start doing their job?
504
00:26:38,067 --> 00:26:39,268
Okay.
505
00:26:43,070 --> 00:26:45,905
Okay, what if I had
evidence that the NSA
506
00:26:45,907 --> 00:26:48,942
requested GCHQ to help
monitor private communications
507
00:26:48,944 --> 00:26:51,276
of the UN Security Council
delegates?
508
00:26:51,278 --> 00:26:53,080
- To what end?
- Bluntly?
509
00:26:53,082 --> 00:26:55,282
To blackmail them
into voting for war.
510
00:26:55,284 --> 00:26:56,917
I'm not with GCHQ.
511
00:26:56,919 --> 00:26:58,751
You're MI6,
you're on the same team.
512
00:26:58,753 --> 00:26:59,818
How did you
hear about this?
513
00:26:59,820 --> 00:27:01,621
A UN resolution for war
514
00:27:01,623 --> 00:27:04,091
would cover everyone's arse,
wouldn't it?
515
00:27:04,093 --> 00:27:06,992
No more asking your team
to sex up evidence of WMDs
516
00:27:06,994 --> 00:27:10,130
or the back-dodgy claims that
Britain was about to be attacked
517
00:27:10,132 --> 00:27:12,165
by Iraq within 45 minutes.
518
00:27:12,167 --> 00:27:14,267
And no chance of anyone
being charged with a war crime
519
00:27:14,269 --> 00:27:16,204
if it all goes tits up.
520
00:27:17,605 --> 00:27:19,038
What are you
asking me, Peter?
521
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:22,109
I'm asking
if you can confirm
522
00:27:22,111 --> 00:27:25,746
whether the NSA
instructed GCHQ
523
00:27:25,748 --> 00:27:28,817
to assist in spying on
Security Council delegates?
524
00:27:29,852 --> 00:27:32,518
You know I can't
answer that.
525
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,154
To do so would put me in breach
of the Official Secrets Act.
526
00:27:35,156 --> 00:27:37,659
To deny it would not.
527
00:27:39,528 --> 00:27:43,466
Well, I can neither confirm
nor deny.
528
00:27:47,669 --> 00:27:48,671
Okay.
529
00:27:49,872 --> 00:27:50,940
Let's play.
530
00:27:52,141 --> 00:27:54,477
- Change ends, idiot.
- Yes.
531
00:27:56,244 --> 00:27:57,811
Your serve.
532
00:27:57,813 --> 00:28:00,814
ED: So the head of the CIA
tells Bush it's a slam dunk
533
00:28:00,816 --> 00:28:03,982
that Saddam has weapons
of mass destruction.
534
00:28:03,984 --> 00:28:05,885
- A slam dunk.
- Yes.
535
00:28:05,887 --> 00:28:07,854
- And that's not true?
- No.
536
00:28:07,856 --> 00:28:10,489
Meaning Saddam definitely
does not have weapons
537
00:28:10,491 --> 00:28:12,659
of mass destruction
or he may not.
538
00:28:12,661 --> 00:28:16,228
Meaning the intelligence
is sketchy at best
539
00:28:16,230 --> 00:28:17,998
and manufactured at worst.
540
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,199
And Tenet knows that?
541
00:28:20,201 --> 00:28:22,902
I've no doubt he knows that.
542
00:28:22,904 --> 00:28:25,071
I was with
the agency 24 years.
543
00:28:25,073 --> 00:28:28,741
I can tell you, folks over there
are really angry about this.
544
00:28:28,743 --> 00:28:30,477
Why?
545
00:28:30,479 --> 00:28:31,710
Why?
546
00:28:31,712 --> 00:28:33,713
Because the majority
of the analysts do not believe
547
00:28:33,715 --> 00:28:36,818
it's a slam dunk,
but no one wants to hear that.
548
00:28:37,719 --> 00:28:39,552
Not even the press.
549
00:28:39,554 --> 00:28:42,288
- Sorry, Mel.
- I'm sorry.
550
00:28:42,290 --> 00:28:43,858
I'm just mad as hell.
551
00:28:45,661 --> 00:28:47,193
Listen, I wanted
to talk to you today
552
00:28:47,195 --> 00:28:51,097
because I think I might finally
be onto something that...
553
00:28:51,099 --> 00:28:55,168
...that really support what
you've been saying for months.
554
00:28:55,170 --> 00:28:57,640
I need to talk to a man
called Frank Koza.
555
00:29:00,910 --> 00:29:02,575
He's NSA.
556
00:29:02,577 --> 00:29:04,480
Head of Regional Targets.
557
00:29:06,949 --> 00:29:08,017
You know him?
558
00:29:10,219 --> 00:29:12,285
I'm sorry, Ed.
559
00:29:12,287 --> 00:29:14,789
I can't give out
that kind of information.
560
00:29:37,046 --> 00:29:38,612
- What are you doing here?
- I'm sorry.
561
00:29:38,614 --> 00:29:40,080
- I didn't wanna call.
- How long have you been here?
562
00:29:40,082 --> 00:29:41,748
We're not supposed
to be meeting.
563
00:29:41,750 --> 00:29:43,682
I know, I've just...
564
00:29:43,684 --> 00:29:46,219
I've been following the news
and I haven't seen
565
00:29:46,221 --> 00:29:47,888
or heard anything
for three weeks.
566
00:29:47,890 --> 00:29:49,355
Okay, well,
I've given it to my contact
567
00:29:49,357 --> 00:29:51,057
and apparently,
she's having a very hard time
568
00:29:51,059 --> 00:29:53,663
getting the papers to
believe that it's not a fake.
569
00:29:55,630 --> 00:29:57,433
Oh, uh...
570
00:29:58,166 --> 00:30:01,000
Well, maybe that's okay.
571
00:30:01,002 --> 00:30:02,201
You know, I...
572
00:30:02,203 --> 00:30:03,370
Look, I mean,
all of the polls said
573
00:30:03,372 --> 00:30:04,671
everyone's against
the war, anyway
574
00:30:04,673 --> 00:30:07,074
and I, and I've
just been thinking...
575
00:30:07,076 --> 00:30:10,309
Look, I think
that I acted too rashly
576
00:30:10,311 --> 00:30:11,644
on impulse.
I didn't think...
577
00:30:11,646 --> 00:30:13,313
Jesus, Katharine,
is it a fake?
578
00:30:13,315 --> 00:30:14,815
Of course it's not a fake.
It's real.
579
00:30:14,817 --> 00:30:16,283
Well, then just go home!
580
00:30:16,285 --> 00:30:19,619
Okay, don't talk about this
to anyone, ever!
581
00:30:19,621 --> 00:30:20,690
Just...
582
00:30:22,624 --> 00:30:25,461
- Sorry.
- It's out of our hands now.
583
00:30:27,328 --> 00:30:28,530
Sorry.
584
00:30:30,499 --> 00:30:33,600
The truth is,
the whole document could be a fake.
585
00:30:33,602 --> 00:30:36,335
But we're satisfied
the language used is real.
586
00:30:36,337 --> 00:30:37,972
- It's fascinating.
- Yeah.
587
00:30:40,442 --> 00:30:43,142
Is this document actually
in your possession?
588
00:30:43,144 --> 00:30:45,411
Well, if it were, I'd be in
breach of the Official Secrets Act
589
00:30:45,413 --> 00:30:46,845
wouldn't I?
590
00:30:46,847 --> 00:30:48,514
(BOTH LAUGH)
591
00:30:48,516 --> 00:30:50,249
So based on what might be
in this document...
592
00:30:50,251 --> 00:30:51,852
- That you don't have.
- That I don't yet have.
593
00:30:51,854 --> 00:30:53,519
But that you want
to print in your paper.
594
00:30:53,521 --> 00:30:55,854
If you don't issue a
D-notice against publication.
595
00:30:55,856 --> 00:30:57,356
Well, which I will
most certainly do
596
00:30:57,358 --> 00:30:59,592
if I think the publication
might in any way
597
00:30:59,594 --> 00:31:01,494
endanger the lives
of British people
598
00:31:01,496 --> 00:31:03,296
or British forces.
599
00:31:03,298 --> 00:31:05,097
- Understood.
- Good.
600
00:31:05,099 --> 00:31:06,900
(CHUCKLES)
601
00:31:06,902 --> 00:31:07,903
Go on.
602
00:31:09,203 --> 00:31:11,203
Would you say
it were likely real
603
00:31:11,205 --> 00:31:13,239
or a forgery?
604
00:31:13,241 --> 00:31:15,441
What do you think?
605
00:31:15,443 --> 00:31:17,376
I think it could be a fake
606
00:31:17,378 --> 00:31:19,748
put out
by the anti-war movement...
607
00:31:20,882 --> 00:31:23,784
...or by a foreign agency
to embarrass the US.
608
00:31:23,786 --> 00:31:26,920
- Which agency?
- The Russians.
609
00:31:26,922 --> 00:31:28,555
I mean, the French
oppose the war, too,
610
00:31:28,557 --> 00:31:30,023
but I don't think
they'd do this.
611
00:31:30,025 --> 00:31:32,691
I think you might be
overthinking it as usual, Martin.
612
00:31:32,693 --> 00:31:35,730
- Meaning?
- You tell me.
613
00:31:37,199 --> 00:31:40,068
Well, meaning it could be
exactly what it says it is.
614
00:31:43,405 --> 00:31:45,705
You know, Martin,
I believe that all information
615
00:31:45,707 --> 00:31:49,178
collected in the name of the
public should be made public.
616
00:31:50,612 --> 00:31:53,313
The only question is, when.
617
00:31:53,315 --> 00:31:57,351
But in this case,
I don't have the luxury of time, Admiral.
618
00:31:57,353 --> 00:31:59,755
Powell just made
a very strong case for war.
619
00:32:00,455 --> 00:32:01,856
Yes, I see.
620
00:32:06,028 --> 00:32:08,761
I have also always believed
621
00:32:08,763 --> 00:32:11,631
that censorship
when called for
622
00:32:11,633 --> 00:32:15,805
should be based
on security issues alone...
623
00:32:17,439 --> 00:32:18,770
...not on whether
a news report
624
00:32:18,772 --> 00:32:20,708
might embarrass
a government.
625
00:32:25,346 --> 00:32:26,548
Thank you, Admiral.
626
00:32:27,849 --> 00:32:30,784
EDIE: (ON SPEAKER) Ed,
it's Edie from the London office.
627
00:32:30,786 --> 00:32:32,552
I got a weird message for you
628
00:32:32,554 --> 00:32:34,321
from someone
who wouldn't give his name.
629
00:32:34,323 --> 00:32:37,891
He said you should call
extension 6727.
630
00:32:37,893 --> 00:32:40,959
Makes no sense to me,
but maybe to you.
631
00:32:40,961 --> 00:32:43,729
6727. Good luck.
632
00:32:43,731 --> 00:32:45,131
- 6727.
- Bye-bye.
633
00:32:45,133 --> 00:32:49,171
6727. 6727. 6727.
634
00:32:50,471 --> 00:32:52,007
(BUTTONS BEEPING)
635
00:32:55,076 --> 00:32:56,509
6727.
636
00:32:56,511 --> 00:32:59,613
(LINE RINGING)
637
00:32:59,615 --> 00:33:01,814
OPERATOR: NSA.
How may I direct your call?
638
00:33:01,816 --> 00:33:05,485
Hello.
Extension 6727, please.
639
00:33:05,487 --> 00:33:07,286
6727?
640
00:33:07,288 --> 00:33:09,221
6727, yes.
641
00:33:09,223 --> 00:33:10,225
One moment.
642
00:33:12,493 --> 00:33:13,895
SECRETARY:
Frank Koza's office.
643
00:33:15,696 --> 00:33:18,131
Hello, may I speak
to Mr. Frank Koza, please?
644
00:33:18,133 --> 00:33:18,998
Who shall I say is calling?
645
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,534
I can't say.
Just put me through.
646
00:33:21,536 --> 00:33:22,738
Yes, sir.
647
00:33:24,906 --> 00:33:26,040
KOZA: Hello?
648
00:33:27,709 --> 00:33:30,443
Mr. Koza? Mr. Frank Koza?
649
00:33:30,445 --> 00:33:32,812
Yes. Who's calling?
650
00:33:32,814 --> 00:33:34,847
Mr. Koza,
my name is Ed Vulliamy.
651
00:33:34,849 --> 00:33:37,651
I work for The Observer
newspaper in London.
652
00:33:37,653 --> 00:33:41,190
I wanted to ask you about
a memo you sent to GCHQ.
653
00:33:45,125 --> 00:33:46,295
Mr. Koza?
654
00:33:48,128 --> 00:33:50,229
(LINE DISCONNECTS)
655
00:33:50,231 --> 00:33:53,600
- Do you think this is real?
- ED: (ON PHONE) Yes, they put me through.
656
00:33:53,602 --> 00:33:55,201
- To Frank Koza?
- Yes.
657
00:33:55,203 --> 00:33:57,304
And you spoke to him
directly, right, Ed?
658
00:33:57,306 --> 00:34:00,038
Well, we didn't exactly
have a conversation.
659
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,441
Did you speak to him or not?
Yes or no, Ed? Jesus.
660
00:34:02,443 --> 00:34:03,642
Yes, but he cut me off
661
00:34:03,644 --> 00:34:05,010
when I said I worked
for The Observer.
662
00:34:05,012 --> 00:34:08,014
But you're sure that he
exists, right, Ed?
663
00:34:08,016 --> 00:34:09,282
Hell yes, I'm sure!
664
00:34:09,284 --> 00:34:12,519
I said, "Mr. Koza?"
He said, "Yes, who's calling?"
665
00:34:12,521 --> 00:34:14,052
All right. Thank you, Ed.
666
00:34:14,054 --> 00:34:16,423
Try not to fuck
this one up, Roger.
667
00:34:16,425 --> 00:34:18,291
- Fuck off.
- You're welcome, anytime.
668
00:34:18,293 --> 00:34:19,295
(CHUCKLES)
669
00:34:20,295 --> 00:34:22,896
- KAMAL: Hitler Diaries.
- What?
670
00:34:22,898 --> 00:34:25,298
I'm just saying it smells of a
forgery like the Hitler Diaries
671
00:34:25,300 --> 00:34:27,367
and, of course,
publishing those cost people their jobs.
672
00:34:27,369 --> 00:34:28,834
Which is precisely
why we're doing
673
00:34:28,836 --> 00:34:31,403
rigorous checking
on this, Kamal.
674
00:34:31,405 --> 00:34:33,539
- Who brought you this?
- Friend.
675
00:34:33,541 --> 00:34:35,541
- Someone from GCHQ?
- No.
676
00:34:35,543 --> 00:34:37,011
Then who?
677
00:34:39,947 --> 00:34:42,749
- Yvonne Ridley.
- ROGER: Yvonne fucking Ridley!
678
00:34:42,751 --> 00:34:44,851
The woman who fell off
a donkey in Afghanistan
679
00:34:44,853 --> 00:34:46,519
at some Taliban checkpoint!
680
00:34:46,521 --> 00:34:48,320
Her arse over a tit
with a camera up her burka
681
00:34:48,322 --> 00:34:49,588
and then she
converted to Islam
682
00:34:49,590 --> 00:34:51,023
after she was released
by her kidnapper.
683
00:34:51,025 --> 00:34:52,659
None of which means
she's not right!
684
00:34:52,661 --> 00:34:53,860
She's anti-war!
685
00:34:53,862 --> 00:34:56,362
She probably typed
the fucking thing herself.
686
00:34:56,364 --> 00:34:58,865
JAN: Martin, you realize the
legal risks we'll be taking?
687
00:34:58,867 --> 00:34:59,999
Yes.
688
00:35:00,001 --> 00:35:01,166
JAN: The last time we
published anything like this
689

our source claimed

MI6 had funded an attempted
assassination on Gaddafi.
692

remotely like that.

No, it merely suggests
that the US government,
695
00:35:14,248 --> 00:35:17,816
with the help of Great Britain,
might try to twist arms
696
00:35:17,818 --> 00:35:20,853

into voting for a war in Iraq.

both governments,

that it poses a security risk

or the armed forces.

00:46:06,099 --> 00:46:09,068
Did you visit the memorial?
866
00:46:09,070 --> 00:46:10,235
The peace memorial?
867
00:46:10,237 --> 00:46:12,474
To the people
killed by the atomic bomb?
868
00:46:14,242 --> 00:46:16,008
Yes, actually, I did.
869
00:46:16,010 --> 00:46:17,045
It's, uh...
870
00:46:18,612 --> 00:46:19,945
It's something
you really have to see.
871
00:46:19,947 --> 00:46:21,349
It's very moving.
872
00:46:23,650 --> 00:46:26,918
Compels one to think
about the consequences of war,
873
00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:29,088
doesn't it?
874
00:46:29,090 --> 00:46:32,624
- Yes, I suppose it does.
- Are you anti-war, Katharine?
875
00:46:32,626 --> 00:46:33,758
No.
876
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:36,965
Uh, I think
sometimes war is necessary.
877
00:46:42,103 --> 00:46:44,202
I see you lived in Taiwan
as a child?
878
00:46:44,204 --> 00:46:46,405
- Yes.
- How long did you live there?
879
00:46:46,407 --> 00:46:48,240
We moved over
when I was three.
880
00:46:48,242 --> 00:46:50,508
I came back
to do my A-levels.
881
00:46:50,510 --> 00:46:51,878
So for most
of your childhood then?
882
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:52,881
Yes.
883
00:46:54,315 --> 00:46:55,981
You had
a religious upbringing?
884
00:46:55,983 --> 00:46:57,215
No, not particularly.
885
00:46:57,217 --> 00:46:58,349
But were you sent away
886
00:46:58,351 --> 00:47:00,586
to a Christian missionary
school in Taiwan?
887
00:47:00,588 --> 00:47:01,619
Yes.
888
00:47:01,621 --> 00:47:03,588
Gave you a clear sense
of right and wrong, did it,
889
00:47:03,590 --> 00:47:04,824
being in a mission school?
890
00:47:04,826 --> 00:47:06,191
I think my parents
gave me that.

892
00:47:07,327 --> 00:47:08,663
Did you leak
the Koza e-mail?
893
00:47:09,898 --> 00:47:11,197
- No.
- No?
894
00:47:11,199 --> 00:47:12,400
No.
895
00:47:14,434 --> 00:47:15,900
- But you read it?
- Yes.
896
00:47:15,902 --> 00:47:18,470
I mean, it was sent to me,
so I read it.
897
00:47:18,472 --> 00:47:21,108
What were your immediate
thoughts after you read it?
898
00:47:22,342 --> 00:47:23,909
Nothing much.
It didn't really bother me.
899
00:47:23,911 --> 00:47:26,047
- It didn't?
- No.
900
00:47:28,449 --> 00:47:30,851
Who do you think
might have leaked it?
901
00:47:35,021 --> 00:47:37,322
- I have no idea.
- No?
902
00:47:37,324 --> 00:47:39,224
- No.
- No?
903
00:47:39,226 --> 00:47:40,427
No.

Okay. Just eat a little.

report in The Observer newspaper

in London, a memo
929
00:49:22,362 --> 00:49:25,898
reported to be from a man
who actually works at the NSA
930
00:49:25,900 --> 00:49:29,834
in which he describes
a "surge in surveillance

"of UN Security Council
members."

The Americans are refusing to
admit that the memo was real.

- I have to tell the truth.
- No.

away with saying it was a fake.

1043
00:57:27,981 --> 00:57:29,514
I gather intelligence
1044
00:57:29,516 --> 00:57:33,619
so that the government can
protect the British people.
1045
00:57:33,621 --> 00:57:36,887
I do not gather intelligence
so that the government can lie
1046
00:57:36,889 --> 00:57:38,625
to the British people.
1047
00:57:41,126 --> 00:57:43,862
With respect, Mrs. Gun,
1048
00:57:43,864 --> 00:57:45,532
you're a spy.
1049
00:57:46,333 --> 00:57:47,199
Yes.
1050
00:57:47,201 --> 00:57:48,266
You gather information
1051
00:57:48,268 --> 00:57:50,034
from people's phones
and computers
1052
00:57:50,036 --> 00:57:52,037
and you feed that
to your clients.
1053
00:57:52,039 --> 00:57:55,706
- Yes.
- You eavesdrop on private conversations.
1054
00:57:55,708 --> 00:57:57,876
And now you're upset
at being asked to do that
1055
00:57:57,878 --> 00:57:59,744
to members
of the Security Council?
1056
00:57:59,746 --> 00:58:01,447

1057

to collect information
1058
00:58:05,518 --> 00:58:08,686
that could help
prevent a terror attack.
1059
00:58:08,688 --> 00:58:12,990
What I object to is being
asked to gather intelligence
1060
00:58:12,992 --> 00:58:16,094
to help fix a vote at the UN
1061
00:58:16,096 --> 00:58:19,132
and deceive the world
into going to war.
1062
00:58:22,737 --> 00:58:25,369
- Who put you up to this?
- No one.
1063
00:58:25,371 --> 00:58:27,005
But you gave the memo
to someone.
1064
00:58:27,007 --> 00:58:29,441
Who did you give it to?
A journalist?
1065
00:58:29,443 --> 00:58:32,411

movement?
1066
00:58:32,413 --> 00:58:33,481

My husband had absolutely
nothing to do with this.
1070

He was briefly detained
here, too, wasn't he?

- Pending deportation?
- Yes, he was.
1072
00:58:44,824 --> 00:58:47,559
- And then you married him.
- Yes.
1073
00:58:47,561 --> 00:58:49,526
His paperwork
has been resubmitted.
1074
00:58:49,528 --> 00:58:51,766
- He signs in here once a week.
- He's a Muslim.
1075
00:58:53,766 --> 00:58:54,833
I'm sorry?
1076
00:58:54,835 --> 00:58:56,568
TINTIN: He's a Kurdish Turk
1077
00:58:56,570 --> 00:58:59,637
seeking permanent residence
in Britain.
1078
00:58:59,639 --> 00:59:03,340
And given what Saddam Hussein
has done to the Kurdish people,
1079
00:59:03,342 --> 00:59:07,579
murdering over 180,000 of
them with chemical weapons,
1080

I can assure you
1081
00:59:09,016 --> 00:59:11,950
my husband has absolutely
no sympathy whatsoever
1082
00:59:11,952 --> 00:59:13,084
with the Iraqi regime.
1083
00:59:13,086 --> 00:59:14,353
Then why did you
leak a memo
1084
00:59:14,355 --> 00:59:17,588
intended to help
remove Saddam Hussein?
1085
00:59:17,590 --> 00:59:18,690

Saddam Hussein,

1116
01:00:40,873 --> 01:00:43,742

The Attorney General
Lord Goldsmith
1123
01:00:57,690 --> 01:01:00,391
has, I understand,
told the Prime Minister
1124
01:01:00,393 --> 01:01:03,661
military action would be legal
without a second resolution.

1213
01:06:00,425 --> 01:06:03,463
Do you want to tell us
who you gave it to?
1214
01:06:06,298 --> 01:06:08,400
Look,
1215
01:06:08,402 --> 01:06:12,237
if you don't mind,
I would prefer not to say.
1216
01:06:12,239 --> 01:06:13,840
I promised I wouldn't.
1217
01:06:14,440 --> 01:06:16,575
Okay.
1218
01:06:16,577 --> 01:06:19,510
When you met Yasar, he had
already applied for asylum.
1219
01:06:19,512 --> 01:06:21,845
- Yes.
- Which was denied.
1220
01:06:21,847 --> 01:06:25,615
Yes, uh, they said that there
wasn't a significant enough risk
1221
01:06:25,617 --> 01:06:27,586
of persecution
if he went back.
1222
01:06:27,588 --> 01:06:29,287
And that's when
you married him?
1223
01:06:29,289 --> 01:06:31,389
- Yes.
- And did he pay you?
1224
01:06:31,391 --> 01:06:32,590
Absolutely not.
1225
01:06:32,592 --> 01:06:33,724
I'm sorry,
I don't mean to upset you.
1226
01:06:33,726 --> 01:06:35,559
It's just that
your husband is Muslim
1227
01:06:35,561 --> 01:06:37,528
and the prosecution
will be looking for motive.
1228
01:06:37,530 --> 01:06:40,731
My motive was to stop a war
1229
01:06:40,733 --> 01:06:45,168
and save lives. I failed.
1230
01:06:45,170 --> 01:06:48,139
All I've managed to do is put
my husband's future at risk.
1231
01:06:48,141 --> 01:06:49,907
BEN: And your own.
1232
01:06:49,909 --> 01:06:51,575
In fact,
by leaking information
1233
01:06:51,577 --> 01:06:53,345
to try and stop a war,
I'd argue
1234
01:06:53,347 --> 01:06:55,512
that you chose loyalty
to your country
1235
01:06:55,514 --> 01:06:59,818
over loyalty to your government,
your marriage and yourself.
1236
01:06:59,820 --> 01:07:02,689
You had nothing to gain
and everything to lose.
1237
01:07:04,090 --> 01:07:06,660
I think that speaks
rather highly of you.
1238
01:07:07,626 --> 01:07:10,795
SHAMI: He's trying
to give you a compliment.
1239
01:07:10,797 --> 01:07:11,762
I see.
1240
01:07:11,764 --> 01:07:13,831
JAMES: Part of our job
is to try and anticipate
1241
01:07:13,833 --> 01:07:17,034
what the prosecution's
going to throw at you.
1242
01:07:17,036 --> 01:07:19,838
Some of the people we meet
are looking for attention,
1243
01:07:19,840 --> 01:07:22,139
a way to elevate
their humdrum lives.
1244
01:07:22,141 --> 01:07:24,977
- Well, I'm not.
- No, I don't think you are.
1245
01:07:28,882 --> 01:07:29,847
Sorry.
1246
01:07:29,849 --> 01:07:32,117
There's nothing
to be sorry for.
1247
01:07:32,119 --> 01:07:33,985
We're here to help.
1248
01:07:33,987 --> 01:07:35,021
(CHUCKLES LIGHTLY)
1249
01:07:36,789 --> 01:07:38,389
And we don't have duress.
1250
01:07:38,391 --> 01:07:42,226
She's adamant no outside
agency put any pressure on her.
1251
01:07:42,228 --> 01:07:43,961
Public interest?
1252
01:07:43,963 --> 01:07:46,463
The public has a right to know
when their government is lying.
1253
01:07:46,465 --> 01:07:48,432
We cite
the Falklands case
1254
01:07:48,434 --> 01:07:50,101
when Thatcher lied
about why she ordered
1255
01:07:50,103 --> 01:07:51,769
the sinking
of that Argentinian ship.
1256
01:07:51,771 --> 01:07:53,070
- Belgrano.
- Yeah.
1257
01:07:53,072 --> 01:07:55,572
- Who was the whistleblower?
- Clive Ponting.
1258
01:07:55,574 --> 01:07:56,874
The jury acquitted him,
didn't they?
1259
01:07:56,876 --> 01:07:58,142
Yes, and immediately
afterwards,
1260
01:07:58,144 --> 01:08:00,110
Thatcher had the Official
Secrets Act amended
1261
01:08:00,112 --> 01:08:01,945
to avoid being caught
in a lie in the future.
1262
01:08:01,947 --> 01:08:04,215
So since '89,
the public interest is
1263
01:08:04,217 --> 01:08:07,119
effectively whatever the
government says that it is.
1264
01:08:08,153 --> 01:08:09,820
We've got nothing.
1265
01:08:09,822 --> 01:08:11,723
I have to
think about it.
1266
01:08:11,725 --> 01:08:14,025
Sorry, I have to go.
1267
01:08:14,027 --> 01:08:16,229
I promised Anne
a weekend away.
1268
01:08:17,764 --> 01:08:20,464
If they charge her,
we might have to plead guilty
1269
01:08:20,466 --> 01:08:21,965
and ask for
a reduced sentence.
1270
01:08:21,967 --> 01:08:24,235
But she's young
and principled.
1271
01:08:24,237 --> 01:08:26,836
A judge might even think that
what she did was morally right.
1272
01:08:26,838 --> 01:08:29,242
Or crucify her
as a traitor.
1273
01:08:31,310 --> 01:08:32,311
Bye.
1274
01:08:59,872 --> 01:09:02,874
- You sure he was following you?
- He was staring at me.
1275
01:09:02,876 --> 01:09:03,941
Sometimes men stare...
1276
01:09:03,943 --> 01:09:05,043
Yeah, it wasn't
that kind of a stare.
1277
01:09:05,045 --> 01:09:06,509
What kind
of a stare was it?
1278
01:09:06,511 --> 01:09:09,612
Yas, please,
I'm scared. Okay?
1279
01:09:09,614 --> 01:09:10,951
I'm scared.
1280
01:09:12,685 --> 01:09:14,986
You know, for years,
I've tried to be legal here.
1281
01:09:14,988 --> 01:09:16,553
- I know.
- Then why'd you do it?
1282
01:09:16,555 --> 01:09:18,790
These arseholes got
their war, anyway.
1283
01:09:18,792 --> 01:09:20,625
Saddam's over.
And you know what?
1284
01:09:20,627 --> 01:09:22,760
- I'm glad he's over!
- War is not over.
1285
01:09:22,762 --> 01:09:24,294
Ousting Saddam
is just the beginning.
1286
01:09:24,296 --> 01:09:26,964
- What do you know about war?
- I work at GCHQ.
1287
01:09:26,966 --> 01:09:29,133
All you do is listen
to people talking!
1288
01:09:29,135 --> 01:09:31,902
You've never seen war!
You've never smelled it!
1289
01:09:31,904 --> 01:09:33,102
Never even
come close to it!
1290
01:09:33,104 --> 01:09:35,440
Yas, I understand
why you are angry.
1291
01:09:35,442 --> 01:09:37,674
It is my fault
and I'm sorry.
1292
01:09:37,676 --> 01:09:39,576
I am so sorry.
1293
01:09:39,578 --> 01:09:44,549
But I watched Blair
with his smug smile
1294
01:09:44,551 --> 01:09:47,317
and his sterile speeches
that tell us nothing
1295
01:09:47,319 --> 01:09:51,354
of what it must feel like to
be a child in Iraq right now.
1296
01:09:51,356 --> 01:09:53,991
I know I'm not sorry
that I tried to stop him.
1297
01:09:53,993 --> 01:09:55,128
I'm not.
1298
01:09:56,061 --> 01:09:58,329
I'm only sorry
that I failed.
1299
01:09:58,331 --> 01:09:59,932
(KNOCK ON DOOR)
1300
01:10:06,139 --> 01:10:09,339
Thank you
for inviting us in.
1301
01:10:09,341 --> 01:10:10,607
What is it
you came to say?
1302
01:10:10,609 --> 01:10:14,378
Well, there's been
a development.
1303
01:10:14,380 --> 01:10:17,048
- Am I going to be charged?
- That I don't know.
1304
01:10:17,050 --> 01:10:18,885
Then why
are you here?
1305
01:10:20,185 --> 01:10:22,619
I gather you went to see
a lawyer today.
1306
01:10:22,621 --> 01:10:23,955
- Did you follow me?
- No.
1307
01:10:23,957 --> 01:10:25,089
Because somebody did.
1308
01:10:25,091 --> 01:10:26,857
Well, you must know
that after what you did,
1309
01:10:26,859 --> 01:10:28,692
GCHQ is concerned.
1310
01:10:28,694 --> 01:10:31,262
I have a right
to legal advice.
1311
01:10:31,264 --> 01:10:35,165
TINTIN: Unfortunately,
it's not as simple as that.
1312
01:10:35,167 --> 01:10:37,934
When you signed on
to work for GCHQ,
1313
01:10:37,936 --> 01:10:40,937
you agreed to be bound
by the Official Secrets Act
1314
01:10:40,939 --> 01:10:43,040
for the rest of your life.
1315
01:10:43,042 --> 01:10:45,009
I know what I signed,
detective.
1316
01:10:45,011 --> 01:10:49,746
Mm, then you know
that it says here
1317
01:10:49,748 --> 01:10:52,148
in Section 1-1
1318
01:10:52,150 --> 01:10:54,718
that "a person is
guilty of an offense
1319
01:10:54,720 --> 01:10:58,055
"if he or she
1320
01:10:58,057 --> 01:11:00,156
"discloses any information
1321
01:11:00,158 --> 01:11:03,960
"relating to security
or intelligence."
1322
01:11:03,962 --> 01:11:07,598
This means that you cannot
discuss anything
1323
01:11:07,600 --> 01:11:10,602
with anyone outside of GCHQ
1324
01:11:10,604 --> 01:11:13,206
relating to
the document you leaked.
1325
01:11:14,873 --> 01:11:17,141
Are you saying
I can't talk to a lawyer?
1326
01:11:17,143 --> 01:11:19,177
Oh, you have the right
to talk to a lawyer.
1327
01:11:19,179 --> 01:11:21,111
It's just that
you cannot discuss
1328
01:11:21,113 --> 01:11:24,648
anything to do with
your work at GCHQ,
1329
01:11:24,650 --> 01:11:26,616
or the contents
of the memo you leaked,
1330
01:11:26,618 --> 01:11:28,820
or how it came
into your possession
1331
01:11:28,822 --> 01:11:30,422
or who wrote it.
1332
01:11:31,690 --> 01:11:34,825
All of this information
is top secret.
1333
01:11:34,827 --> 01:11:37,928
So disclosing it
to anyone outside of GCHQ,
1334
01:11:37,930 --> 01:11:40,063
even a lawyer,
1335
01:11:40,065 --> 01:11:43,867
would be a further violation
of the Official Secrets Act,
1336
01:11:43,869 --> 01:11:47,170
which could result
in further prosecution
1337
01:11:47,172 --> 01:11:50,277
and a much longer
prison sentence.
1338
01:11:53,046 --> 01:11:55,849
We just wanted
you to be aware of that.
1339
01:11:57,684 --> 01:12:02,018
So if I may not talk to a
lawyer, who may I talk to?
1340
01:12:02,020 --> 01:12:04,787
You should talk to
your superiors at GCHQ.
1341
01:12:04,789 --> 01:12:08,358
- Are you fucking joking?
- Yas, please. Please.
1342
01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:11,094
We should hear what
the detectives have to say.
1343
01:12:11,096 --> 01:12:13,166
They're just
doing their job.
1344
01:12:16,036 --> 01:12:21,071
Simply put, if you wish
to tell anything to a lawyer
1345
01:12:21,073 --> 01:12:23,944
or the press or anyone else...
1346
01:12:24,909 --> 01:12:28,047
...you first need to
clear it with GCHQ.
1347
01:12:31,684 --> 01:12:33,052
Detective...
1348
01:12:34,087 --> 01:12:37,053
I leaked only one memo.
1349
01:12:37,055 --> 01:12:38,388
I had good reason to do so
1350
01:12:38,390 --> 01:12:41,692
and I intend to make
those reasons public
1351
01:12:41,694 --> 01:12:44,063
if I am charged.
1352
01:12:45,264 --> 01:12:47,397
I will not talk
to my lawyers again
1353
01:12:47,399 --> 01:12:49,869
unless I am charged.
1354
01:12:51,037 --> 01:12:53,306
Tell that to GCHQ.
1355
01:12:59,045 --> 01:13:00,544
Are you grilling
or smoking that fish?
1356
01:13:00,546 --> 01:13:03,647
I am smoking.
I've soaked the wood chips in water.
1357
01:13:03,649 --> 01:13:04,749
I've got charcoal.
1358
01:13:04,751 --> 01:13:07,718
I'm... I'm trying
something new.
1359
01:13:07,720 --> 01:13:10,388
- Hi.
- Ken?
1360
01:13:10,390 --> 01:13:11,821
- Hi.
- Hi, Ken.
1361
01:13:11,823 --> 01:13:14,791
- Guess you're down here for the weekend.
- Yes. Just for the night.
1362
01:13:14,793 --> 01:13:16,326
Yeah, me too.
It's been a while.
1363
01:13:16,328 --> 01:13:18,928
Mm-hmm. Would you, uh...
Do you want a drink?
1364
01:13:18,930 --> 01:13:21,732
Uh, no, thanks.
Sally's cooking dinner.
1365
01:13:21,734 --> 01:13:24,168
- Hello, Anne.
- Hi.
1366
01:13:24,170 --> 01:13:27,437
- I'm so sorry to intrude.
- Oh, not at all.
1367
01:13:27,439 --> 01:13:29,205
How's the new job?
1368
01:13:29,207 --> 01:13:33,110
Well, it's, um, eye-opening.
1369
01:13:33,112 --> 01:13:36,847
In fact, I wondered
if I might ask Ben's opinion
1370
01:13:36,849 --> 01:13:40,451
about a new case that my office
has been asked to prosecute.
1371
01:13:40,453 --> 01:13:43,888
It won't take a minute.
Would you mind?
1372
01:13:43,890 --> 01:13:45,889
How do you know
that I met her?
1373
01:13:45,891 --> 01:13:48,659
Security services
are all over this.
1374
01:13:48,661 --> 01:13:49,893
Mm-hmm.
1375
01:13:49,895 --> 01:13:51,795
And it's not just
a domestic embarrassment.
1376
01:13:51,797 --> 01:13:53,164
The Americans
are very unhappy.
1377
01:13:53,166 --> 01:13:54,665
Oh, well,
that is upsetting.
1378
01:13:54,667 --> 01:13:57,936
Oh, come on, Ben,
it's not funny.
1379
01:13:57,938 --> 01:14:00,970
What she did was a
deliberate act of betrayal.

colleagues anymore.

We're on
different sides here.
1382

I think she wants to be seen
as some sort of cause celebre.
1383
01:14:09,282 --> 01:14:13,483
But she swore allegiance
to the intelligence services
1384
01:14:13,485 --> 01:14:15,818
and when you do that you
don't get to pick and choose
1385

what orders
you'll follow.
1386
01:14:17,122 --> 01:14:19,490
Following orders is not
a defense to a war crime.

Yes, but who is she to undermine
the strategic objectives

- of a democratically-elected Prime Minister.

1389

Oh, come on, she's not selling
state secrets to Moscow.
1390
01:14:29,902 --> 01:14:32,169
She exposed
an illegal attempt
1391
01:14:32,171 --> 01:14:34,504
to secure
a UN resolution for war
1392
01:14:34,506 --> 01:14:36,272
which would have
given Blair perfect cover
1393
01:14:36,274 --> 01:14:37,840
for the bloody mess
that we're in now.
1394
01:14:37,842 --> 01:14:40,010
No, she should have
kept her mouth shut
1395
01:14:40,012 --> 01:14:42,245
or complained
to her superiors.
1396
01:14:42,247 --> 01:14:43,813
Now I've got
a real problem with people
1397
01:14:43,815 --> 01:14:45,915
who think that
from some lowly position
1398
01:14:45,917 --> 01:14:47,585
they can possibly see
the big picture.
1399
01:14:47,587 --> 01:14:49,385
So then you would
never question authority
1400
01:14:49,387 --> 01:14:51,155
even if you knew
it was breaking the law.
1401
01:14:51,157 --> 01:14:54,058

for being angry with her.

which shouldn't be difficult.

01:22:55,274 --> 01:22:56,776
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
1549
01:22:58,810 --> 01:23:00,677
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
1550
01:23:00,679 --> 01:23:01,844
- It's all right.
- You okay?
1551
01:23:01,846 --> 01:23:02,912
- I'm okay.
- Are you okay?
1552
01:23:02,914 --> 01:23:04,649
- You're okay?
- Yeah, yeah.
1553
01:23:11,957 --> 01:23:13,423
If they try and pull
anything like that again,
1554
01:23:13,425 --> 01:23:14,523
then I want
to go public.
1555
01:23:14,525 --> 01:23:16,058
- Not a good idea.
- Why not?
1556
01:23:16,060 --> 01:23:18,460
Because people are fickle.
Many will hate you.
1557
01:23:18,462 --> 01:23:20,296
Your personal lives
will be picked apart,
1558
01:23:20,298 --> 01:23:21,897
your marriage
will be interrogated.
1559
01:23:21,899 --> 01:23:23,767
In fact, we think
it will be best
1560
01:23:23,769 --> 01:23:26,702
if Yasar was kept
well out of this.
1561
01:23:26,704 --> 01:23:29,207
You should probably
not attend the trial.
1562
01:23:30,641 --> 01:23:33,476
- I understand.
- What? No.
1563
01:23:33,478 --> 01:23:35,644
Janum, we both know
the jury will prefer
1564
01:23:35,646 --> 01:23:37,379
an English girl without
an immigrant husband.
1565
01:23:37,381 --> 01:23:38,714
You know what?
That is ridiculous.
1566
01:23:38,716 --> 01:23:41,151
We are married and we have
nothing to be ashamed of.
1567
01:23:41,153 --> 01:23:42,919
The shame is on them, not you.
1568
01:23:42,921 --> 01:23:46,824
You don't need to risk
your freedom to prove it.
1569
01:23:46,826 --> 01:23:49,625
We should discuss
how you'll plead.
1570
01:23:49,627 --> 01:23:50,826
Not guilty.
1571
01:23:50,828 --> 01:23:52,929
SHAMI: But you understand
you confessed.
1572
01:23:52,931 --> 01:23:56,400
I confessed that I leaked a memo
in order to try and save lives.
1573
01:23:56,402 --> 01:24:01,004
And we will use that argument
to ask for a reduced sentence.
1574
01:24:01,006 --> 01:24:03,973
If you do plead guilty,
there will be no jury.
1575
01:24:03,975 --> 01:24:06,343
You could be out of jail
in less than six months.
1576
01:24:06,345 --> 01:24:07,977
Given how badly
the war is going,
1577
01:24:07,979 --> 01:24:10,379
we think a judge
is likely to be sympathetic.
1578
01:24:10,381 --> 01:24:12,715
But I'd have
a criminal record.
1579
01:24:12,717 --> 01:24:14,049
JAMES: That is true.
1580
01:24:14,051 --> 01:24:16,687
Which I would carry with me
for the rest of my life
1581
01:24:16,689 --> 01:24:18,287
into every job interview,
1582
01:24:18,289 --> 01:24:19,455
every application for credit.
1583
01:24:19,457 --> 01:24:21,357
- Yes.
- And I'm sorry.
1584
01:24:21,359 --> 01:24:24,093
We would be conceding
1585
01:24:24,095 --> 01:24:27,363
that no one in Intelligence can
ever tell the British people
1586
01:24:27,365 --> 01:24:29,066
when their government
is lying.
1587
01:24:29,068 --> 01:24:30,534
JAMES: Not when
the lies are protected
1588
01:24:30,536 --> 01:24:32,902
by the
Official Secrets Act, no.
1589
01:24:32,904 --> 01:24:34,236
I'm sorry.
This is all a charade.
1590
01:24:34,238 --> 01:24:36,072
I mean, if you're saying
that I have to plead guilty
1591
01:24:36,074 --> 01:24:38,842
because the act allows
absolutely no defense whatsoever,
1592
01:24:38,844 --> 01:24:41,245
then the very idea
of a fair trial is a joke.
1593
01:24:41,247 --> 01:24:42,979
I'm sorry,
Katharine,
1594
01:24:42,981 --> 01:24:46,983
but the best we can do is
ask a judge for leniency.
1595
01:24:46,985 --> 01:24:49,751
Post Belgrano, there
really is no defense
1596
01:24:49,753 --> 01:24:51,287
to a breach of
the Official Secrets Act...
1597
01:24:51,289 --> 01:24:53,192
Except perhaps one.
1598
01:24:54,159 --> 01:24:55,793
Katharine said it herself.
1599
01:24:55,795 --> 01:24:58,495
She leaked the memo
to try to save lives.
1600
01:24:58,497 --> 01:24:59,928
But she still
broke the law.
1601
01:24:59,930 --> 01:25:02,232
Yes, but there are circumstances
where you can break the law.
1602
01:25:02,234 --> 01:25:05,035
It's only in situations
of absolute necessity...
1603
01:25:05,037 --> 01:25:07,504
- Necessity. Exactly.
- Ben, you're reaching.
1604
01:25:07,506 --> 01:25:10,808
Am I? What are the requirements
for a defense of necessity?
1605
01:25:10,810 --> 01:25:12,843
Imminent threat to your life
or the lives of others.
1606
01:25:12,845 --> 01:25:15,446
Yeah, and no other reasonable
way to prevent loss of life.
1607
01:25:15,448 --> 01:25:17,013
Yes, right, well,
the invasion posed
1608
01:25:17,015 --> 01:25:19,115
an imminent threat
to thousands of lives.
1609
01:25:19,117 --> 01:25:21,050
Katharine has no right
to try and prevent a war
1610
01:25:21,052 --> 01:25:22,318
authorized by
the Attorney General.
1611
01:25:22,320 --> 01:25:25,688
- Unless the war is illegal.
- SHAMI AND JAMES: What?
1612
01:25:25,690 --> 01:25:28,924
- (CHUCKLES)
- Wait, wait, so now we're going to put the war on trial?
1613
01:25:28,926 --> 01:25:30,093
BEN: Yes.
1614
01:25:30,095 --> 01:25:34,563
I believe that Katharine Gun
tried to stop an illegal war.
1615
01:25:34,565 --> 01:25:36,266
What she did was necessary
1616
01:25:36,268 --> 01:25:39,635
to try to save thousands of
British-American and Iraqi lives.
1617
01:25:39,637 --> 01:25:42,738
And Goldsmith
specifically stated
1618
01:25:42,740 --> 01:25:44,240
that the invasion was legal.
1619
01:25:44,242 --> 01:25:47,110
He said so only three days
before the invasion.
1620
01:25:47,112 --> 01:25:48,512
What was his position
before that?
1621
01:25:48,514 --> 01:25:51,281
What was his advice at the
time Katharine leaked the memo?
1622
01:25:51,283 --> 01:25:53,148
- Well, we have no idea.
- Well, I'd like to find out.
1623
01:25:53,150 --> 01:25:54,784
Because Blair spent
a lot of energy
1624
01:25:54,786 --> 01:25:57,387
trying to secure
a new UN resolution.
1625
01:25:57,389 --> 01:25:58,621
I suppose.
1626
01:25:58,623 --> 01:26:00,790
When Lord Goldsmith
finally said
1627
01:26:00,792 --> 01:26:04,361
the war was legal,
his deputy legal advisor resigned.
1628
01:26:04,363 --> 01:26:06,161
Yes, Elizabeth Wilmshurst.
Yeah, that's right.
1629
01:26:06,163 --> 01:26:07,696
- She resigned. Yes, yes.
- SHAMI: But she didn't say why.
1630
01:26:07,698 --> 01:26:09,232
KATHARINE: She couldn't.
1631
01:26:09,234 --> 01:26:11,201
If she did, she'd be charged
under the Official Secrets Act.
1632
01:26:11,203 --> 01:26:13,402
So I need to get a meeting
with Elizabeth Wilmshurst.
1633
01:26:13,404 --> 01:26:15,371
- She's not gonna go public.
- BEN: She doesn't have to.
1634
01:26:15,373 --> 01:26:16,606
All we need is a hint
1635
01:26:16,608 --> 01:26:19,442
that Goldsmith changed his mind
about the legality of the war.
1636
01:26:19,444 --> 01:26:23,379
I'm sorry, Ben. There are two
ways they could justify war.
1637
01:26:23,381 --> 01:26:25,647
- We've only addressed one.
- So what am I missing?
1638
01:26:25,649 --> 01:26:27,116
- Self-defense.
- Oh, come on.
1639
01:26:27,118 --> 01:26:29,052
Does anyone honestly believe
that this country
1640
01:26:29,054 --> 01:26:30,821
was about to be attacked
by Iraq?
1641
01:26:30,823 --> 01:26:33,123
I do agree, but that's why
they trotted out Powell.
1642
01:26:33,125 --> 01:26:35,357
- To make the case for WMDs.
- Oh.
1643
01:26:35,359 --> 01:26:37,160
If it's true that Iraq has
weapons of mass destruction
1644
01:26:37,162 --> 01:26:39,795
that pose an imminent threat
to this country,
1645
01:26:39,797 --> 01:26:43,767
the war is legal
without a UN resolution.
1646
01:26:43,769 --> 01:26:45,101
How many people
actually believe
1647
01:26:45,103 --> 01:26:47,003
Iraq still has weapons
of mass destruction?
1648
01:26:47,005 --> 01:26:48,472
SHAMI: Well,
they're still looking.
1649
01:26:48,474 --> 01:26:51,911
If we go down this route,
we better pray none are found.
1650
01:26:54,113 --> 01:26:56,849
BEN: I'm gonna get
Elizabeth Wilmshurst's number.
1651
01:26:59,385 --> 01:27:02,085
You've put me
in a rather awkward position.
1652
01:27:02,087 --> 01:27:06,155
I'm sorry, but thank you
for seeing me.
1653
01:27:06,157 --> 01:27:09,224
I think what she did
took great courage.
1654
01:27:09,226 --> 01:27:13,062
And she was naive,
of course, but brave.
1655
01:27:13,064 --> 01:27:16,135
And you were
brave enough to resign.
1656
01:27:18,670 --> 01:27:21,838
But not to
speak out in public.
1657
01:27:21,840 --> 01:27:25,241
If I had, I might have caused
more of a brouhaha.
1658
01:27:25,243 --> 01:27:27,110
Sparked a proper debate.
1659
01:27:27,112 --> 01:27:31,283
Can I ask you, uh,
how did you resign?
1660
01:27:35,520 --> 01:27:36,956
I wrote a letter.
1661
01:27:38,256 --> 01:27:41,391
And in that letter,
did you give a reason
1662
01:27:41,393 --> 01:27:43,425
for your resignation?
1663
01:27:43,427 --> 01:27:46,763
I restated my position on
the legality of going to war.
1664
01:27:46,765 --> 01:27:48,630
Which was?
1665
01:27:48,632 --> 01:27:51,000
That it would
not be lawful to use force
1666
01:27:51,002 --> 01:27:54,370
without a new
Security Council resolution.
1667
01:27:54,372 --> 01:27:59,110
Um, did Goldsmith initially
support your view?
1668
01:28:00,310 --> 01:28:02,079
He did.
1669
01:28:02,081 --> 01:28:04,313
He told Blair that
if military action were taken,
1670
01:28:04,315 --> 01:28:06,482
he expected
the government to be accused
1671
01:28:06,484 --> 01:28:09,020
of acting unlawfully.
1672
01:28:10,521 --> 01:28:13,192
And was that
a written opinion?
1673
01:28:14,292 --> 01:28:16,428
It was a detailed
advisory document.
1674
01:28:18,229 --> 01:28:21,563
Right, so then would that
have been his position
1675
01:28:21,565 --> 01:28:24,701
at the time that Katharine Gun
printed the Koza memo
1676
01:28:24,703 --> 01:28:26,305
on February 3?
1677
01:28:28,740 --> 01:28:29,942
Yes.
1678
01:28:32,176 --> 01:28:34,246
And then
he went to Washington.
1679
01:28:35,146 --> 01:28:36,580
Oh, really?
1680
01:28:36,582 --> 01:28:41,253
- Well, who did he meet there?
- I wasn't given details.
1681
01:28:42,354 --> 01:28:46,022
But after that trip,
his opinion changed.
1682
01:28:46,024 --> 01:28:49,159
In nine short paragraphs,
he said that
1683
01:28:49,161 --> 01:28:52,728
the UN's authorization
for the 1991 Gulf War
1684
01:28:52,730 --> 01:28:55,165
could be reactivated
1685
01:28:55,167 --> 01:28:57,601
to legitimize
a new war with Iraq.
1686
01:28:57,603 --> 01:29:00,902
He told the Prime Minister
what he wanted to hear?
1687
01:29:00,904 --> 01:29:03,039
At best, he was
persuaded to support
1688
01:29:03,041 --> 01:29:05,674
a really fringe point of view.
1689
01:29:05,676 --> 01:29:08,844
- Oh, really fringe.
- Yeah.
1690
01:29:08,846 --> 01:29:10,949
(TELEPHONE RINGING)
1691
01:29:14,618 --> 01:29:16,318
- Martin Bright.
- Martin.
1692
01:29:16,320 --> 01:29:17,620
- Ben.
- Ben.
1693
01:29:17,622 --> 01:29:19,054
I took
your whistleblower's case.
1694
01:29:19,056 --> 01:29:21,491
Yes, I heard.
Can I meet her?
1695
01:29:21,493 --> 01:29:23,960
No, not yet, Martin.
I don't want a media frenzy.
1696
01:29:23,962 --> 01:29:25,262
Okay. When she's ready.
1697
01:29:25,264 --> 01:29:27,496
Before some hack
tracks her down.
1698
01:29:27,498 --> 01:29:29,732
Come on, Ben, I broke her story.
I'm on her side.
1699
01:29:29,734 --> 01:29:31,434
Well, you can help
by finding out
1700
01:29:31,436 --> 01:29:34,003
why the Attorney General
went to Washington
1701
01:29:34,005 --> 01:29:35,871
just before the war started.
1702
01:29:35,873 --> 01:29:38,375
Wait, Goldsmith went to DC?
1703
01:29:38,377 --> 01:29:40,076
I'd like to know
who he met there.
1704
01:29:40,078 --> 01:29:41,244
Right. I'm on it.
1705
01:29:41,246 --> 01:29:43,679
- And how is Peter?
- Peter is in Iraq.
1706
01:29:43,681 --> 01:29:45,982
Yeah, yeah, I know.
I've been reading his articles.
1707
01:29:45,984 --> 01:29:48,250
Listen, if he hears anything,
even a hint
1708
01:29:48,252 --> 01:29:51,487
that Saddam really did have
weapons of mass destruction,
1709
01:29:51,489 --> 01:29:52,656
then please call me.
1710
01:29:52,658 --> 01:29:54,790
Of course. Can I ask why?
1711
01:29:54,792 --> 01:29:56,759
Well, let's just say
that if WMD are found,
1712
01:29:56,761 --> 01:30:00,062
then defending Katharine will
be a little more complicated.
1713
01:30:00,064 --> 01:30:01,897

No, no, not a fucking thing.
Nothing.

Anyway, some Polish troops found
a cache of Sarin gas warheads

dating back to the Iran-Iraq
War, but they were all empty.

And right now, I'm standing
in a glass factory
1724
01:30:22,820 --> 01:30:26,992
and all they've found is piles
of silica sand and soda ash.
1725
01:30:29,228 --> 01:30:30,126
So, yeah.
1726
01:30:30,128 --> 01:30:32,062
Things must be getting ugly
in Washington.

Well, you should talk to Ed.

ED: Goldsmith's in DC
meeting with the attorneys
1738
01:30:58,323 --> 01:31:00,490
for Bush, Powell,
Rumsfeld and Rice.

- Okay, hold on...
- But that's not the big story.
1740

The really big story
is the OSP.

The Office of Special Plans.
1742
01:31:07,498 --> 01:31:10,031
Turns out when Bush wasn't getting
the intelligence he wanted,
1743
01:31:10,033 --> 01:31:12,869
Rumsfeld bypassed the CIA
1744
01:31:12,871 --> 01:31:15,271
and set up his own
intelligence unit.
1745
01:31:15,273 --> 01:31:17,572
They fed
raw unvetted intelligence
1746
01:31:17,574 --> 01:31:21,076
to Bush and Powell
who lied us into a war!
1747
01:31:21,078 --> 01:31:22,778
Yeah. Okay, Ed.
I appreciate that.
1748
01:31:22,780 --> 01:31:24,214

met Bush's lawyers

on February 11.
Who were those lawyers?
1752
01:31:30,322 --> 01:31:32,187
"John Ashcroft,
Alberto Gonzales,
1753
01:31:32,189 --> 01:31:35,325
William Taft, Jim Haynes,
John Bellinger."
1754
01:31:35,327 --> 01:31:38,527
The attorneys for Bush,
Powell, Rumsfeld and Rice.
1755

Wow. They really
turned up the heat.
1756
01:31:41,298 --> 01:31:44,299
You know, I almost
feel sorry for Goldsmith.
1757
01:31:44,301 --> 01:31:47,602
Don't. He fucking caved when
his country needed him most.
1758
01:31:47,604 --> 01:31:49,973
- That's a great headline, mate.
- It bloody is.

- (CHUCKLES) All right.
- Print it.

1763
01:31:56,314 --> 01:31:58,248
MARTIN: Goldsmith was
under tremendous pressure
1764
01:31:58,250 --> 01:31:59,848
before he went to Washington.
1765
01:31:59,850 --> 01:32:01,483
Our military were
refusing to invade
1766
01:32:01,485 --> 01:32:03,186
without a clear legal opinion
from him
1767
01:32:03,188 --> 01:32:04,786
that what they were doing
was legal
1768
01:32:04,788 --> 01:32:06,356
in case of a war crimes trial.
1769
01:32:06,358 --> 01:32:08,257
Thank you, Martin,
very helpful.
1770
01:32:08,259 --> 01:32:09,893
Well, no, hang on,
hang on, hang on.
1771
01:32:09,895 --> 01:32:11,192
Do you think
you have a defense?
1772
01:32:11,194 --> 01:32:12,695
- We're working on it.
- Okay.
1773
01:32:12,697 --> 01:32:14,363
- Let me know when you do.
- Well, you'll hear it in court.
1774
01:32:14,365 --> 01:32:16,165
- Come on, Ben.
- Bye.
1775
01:32:16,167 --> 01:32:18,101
- He's persistent.
- He is.
1776
01:32:18,103 --> 01:32:19,302
But it's your story
1777
01:32:19,304 --> 01:32:21,903
and you don't need
a media trial.
1778
01:32:21,905 --> 01:32:24,941
We should request full
disclosure of all legal advice
1779
01:32:24,943 --> 01:32:28,510
given by Goldsmith in the year
leading up to the invasion.
1780
01:32:28,512 --> 01:32:30,379
He'll almost certainly
refuse to comply.
1781
01:32:30,381 --> 01:32:32,348
Then we'll
subpoena Wilmshurst.
1782
01:32:32,350 --> 01:32:35,285
Hell, we'll subpoena Goldsmith himself.
And Blair too.
1783
01:32:35,287 --> 01:32:39,455
Ben, if we can't prove that
Goldsmith changed his advice,
1784
01:32:39,457 --> 01:32:43,262
we can't argue that Katharine
tried to stop an illegal war.
1785
01:32:43,729 --> 01:32:45,097
What then?
1786
01:32:53,604 --> 01:32:57,475
- Then I'll be found guilty.
- BEN: Almost certainly, yes.
1787
01:33:04,716 --> 01:33:07,884
So, do you want
to risk it all
1788
01:33:07,886 --> 01:33:13,089
and ask for disclosure
of the government's documents,
1789
01:33:13,091 --> 01:33:14,523
or would you
rather plead guilty
1790
01:33:14,525 --> 01:33:17,395

for a reduced sentence?

01:40:16,081 --> 01:40:17,044
Yes, My Lord.
1885
01:40:17,046 --> 01:40:19,815
JUDGE: And yet you do not
wish to proceed?
1886
01:40:19,817 --> 01:40:21,616
- ELLISON: No, My Lord.
- JUDGE: I'm sorry.
1887
01:40:21,618 --> 01:40:23,686
I find that extraordinary.
1888
01:40:23,688 --> 01:40:25,724
Do you care to explain?
1889
01:40:28,225 --> 01:40:31,759
My Lord, the accused
submitted an unusual defense.
1890
01:40:31,761 --> 01:40:34,362
Yes. The defense of necessity.
1891
01:40:34,364 --> 01:40:35,998
- ELLISON: Yes.
- And?
1892
01:40:36,000 --> 01:40:39,367
And we do not believe we have
sufficient evidence to rebut it.
1893
01:40:39,369 --> 01:40:41,236
Why not? She confessed.
1894
01:40:41,238 --> 01:40:42,839
Because, My Lord,
1895
01:40:42,841 --> 01:40:45,842
the documents that
we have called for would show
1896
01:40:45,844 --> 01:40:49,245
that this country was taken
to war illegally...
1897
01:40:49,247 --> 01:40:50,579
(AUDIENCE MURMURING)
1898
01:40:50,581 --> 01:40:53,115
...and may expose
1899
01:40:53,117 --> 01:40:56,652
the government to
charges of war crimes.
1900
01:40:56,654 --> 01:40:59,090
- That is absurd!
- Is it?
1901
01:41:00,824 --> 01:41:02,892
Then kindly hand over
the documents
1902
01:41:02,894 --> 01:41:05,861
that we have asked to see.
1903
01:41:05,863 --> 01:41:07,629
My Lord, the prosecution
is not obliged.
1904
01:41:07,631 --> 01:41:10,965
Indeed, it is not permitted to continue
with a case if it does not believe
1905
01:41:10,967 --> 01:41:13,568
there is a realistic prospect
of a conviction.
1906
01:41:13,570 --> 01:41:15,804
To do so would be a waste
of taxpayers' funds.
1907
01:41:15,806 --> 01:41:17,673
My Lord, I am thankful
1908
01:41:17,675 --> 01:41:20,843
that the charges against
Ms. Gun are being withdrawn
1909
01:41:20,845 --> 01:41:23,477
and that the Crown
is suddenly so determined
1910
01:41:23,479 --> 01:41:25,680
not to waste taxpayers' money.
1911
01:41:25,682 --> 01:41:28,918
But surely,
after months of uncertainty
1912
01:41:28,920 --> 01:41:33,222
and severe distress,
Ms. Gun is entitled to know
1913
01:41:33,224 --> 01:41:36,125
why the government
is dropping this case?
1914
01:41:36,127 --> 01:41:39,394
Indeed, the public
is entitled to know.
1915
01:41:39,396 --> 01:41:41,198
- AUDIENCE: Hear, hear.
- Hear.
1916
01:41:43,734 --> 01:41:45,269
JUDGE: Mr. Ellison?
1917
01:41:48,538 --> 01:41:50,205
Again, My Lord, we do not feel
1918
01:41:50,207 --> 01:41:53,108
we have a realistic prospect
of a conviction.
1919
01:41:53,110 --> 01:41:55,246
There is nothing more
I can say.
1920
01:41:56,247 --> 01:41:57,780
JUDGE: To be clear,
1921
01:41:57,782 --> 01:42:01,950
you are withdrawing
all charges
1922
01:42:01,952 --> 01:42:04,689
against
Katharine Teresa Gun?
1923
01:42:07,725 --> 01:42:08,857
Yes, My Lord.
1924
01:42:08,859 --> 01:42:10,362
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
1925
01:42:19,671 --> 01:42:21,072
Ms. Gun...
1926
01:42:26,444 --> 01:42:28,013
...you are free to go.
1927
01:42:29,447 --> 01:42:30,914
(SIGHS)
1928
01:42:34,118 --> 01:42:35,186
(EXHALES)
1929
01:43:03,480 --> 01:43:06,415
REPORTER 1: In a startling about-turn,
the Crown Prosecution Service
1930
01:43:06,417 --> 01:43:08,550
has dropped its case
against an intelligence...
1931
01:43:08,552 --> 01:43:11,954
REPORTER 2: At 29, Katharine Gun
was facing jail for breaking the...
1932
01:43:11,956 --> 01:43:13,254
REPORTER 3: The last thing
the government wanted
1933
01:43:13,256 --> 01:43:14,723
within months
of a general election
1934
01:43:14,725 --> 01:43:15,958
was a big court case
1935
01:43:15,960 --> 01:43:18,059
focusing on the legality
of that war...
1936
01:43:18,061 --> 01:43:19,995
REPORTER 4: The lawyers wanted
the Attorney General's
1937
01:43:19,997 --> 01:43:21,763
secret advice
to Downing Street
1938
01:43:21,765 --> 01:43:24,666
about whether invading Iraq
was or was not legal
1939
01:43:24,668 --> 01:43:26,668
disclosed that the...
1940
01:43:26,670 --> 01:43:29,707
And he was involved in deciding
whether today's case...
1941
01:43:34,845 --> 01:43:38,179
REPORTER 5: First tonight,
Katharine Gun walks free.
1942
01:43:38,181 --> 01:43:40,115
In a dramatic about-turn,
the Crown...
1943
01:43:40,117 --> 01:43:41,884
REPORTER 6:
So did the Attorney General
1944
01:43:41,886 --> 01:43:43,718
put pressure on to stop
the trial?
1945
01:43:43,720 --> 01:43:45,321
Did GCHQ?
1946
01:43:45,323 --> 01:43:47,790
Did the prime minister?
No answers.
1947
01:43:47,792 --> 01:43:49,459
Tonight we're simply
asked to believe
1948
01:43:49,461 --> 01:43:52,197
that there was no case
to answer.
1949
01:43:54,198 --> 01:43:55,665
(CLAMORING)
1950
01:43:55,667 --> 01:43:57,967
REPORTER:
Would you do it again?
1951
01:43:57,969 --> 01:44:00,001
- Would you do it again?
- I have no regrets.
1952
01:44:00,003 --> 01:44:02,239
Yes, and I would
do it again, yes.
1953
01:44:17,822 --> 01:44:19,190
Caught anything?
1954
01:44:20,457 --> 01:44:21,826
Not yet.
1955
01:44:36,140 --> 01:44:39,210
You know, it wasn't
my choice to prosecute.
1956
01:44:41,045 --> 01:44:44,548
I was bound by the decision
of the Attorney General.
1957
01:44:45,948 --> 01:44:49,352
Why did you keep her
in a state of distress
1958
01:44:49,354 --> 01:44:53,921
for a year
before you brought charges?
1959
01:44:53,923 --> 01:44:57,692
The services wanted to make
an example of her.
1960
01:44:57,694 --> 01:45:00,629
If we dropped the case
any earlier,
1961
01:45:00,631 --> 01:45:03,333
what kind of message
would that have sent?
1962
01:45:08,338 --> 01:45:10,207
Do me a favor, Ken.
1963
01:45:10,875 --> 01:45:12,944
Go and fish somewhere else.
1964
01:45:46,444 --> 01:45:51,444
