British Lawmaker Urges Pulication of 'Bomb Al-Jazeera' Memo

LONDON A member of Parliament from British Prime Minister Tony Blair's Labour party filed a motion Friday urging publication of a leaked document that suggests President George W. Bush wanted to bomb the headquarters of Arab broadcaster Al-Jazeera. Earlier this week, British Attorney General Lord Goldsmith warned editors they could face prosecution under the Official Secrets Act for disclosing the contents of a document that has been described as a transcript of discussions between Bush and Blair. Labour party backbencher Peter Kilfoyle filed a motion calling for publication of the document, which was leaked to the Daily Mirror newspaper. Civil servant David Keogh and Leo O'Connor, who formerly worked for a British MP, have been charged with violating the Official Secrets Act. "I would hope we can have a fair and full discussion of the very important issues that were discussed at that meeting," Kilfoyle, a former defence minister, told BBC radio. "The information is out there in the public domain and it seems ludicrous that the media can't discuss it in its entirety," he added. Kilfoyle's motion has little chance of success. .............
