Colin Powell had a whole bunch of things he could have distributed to the UN weeks earlier - but the timing was important in the cycle of news and public opinion - created to get the public onside and put pressure on the inspectors to make a bad report so that the US can go to war.

I agree. Everyone tries to time their efforts for the best effect.
I wonder why the protestors didn't wait another month before they protested. Why do you think they chose the timing they did, Alex? It was meant for maximum effect. The wisest of people have the best timing.
Nothing new here.
