from Debka:

Consider the source. Debka have proven rather lacking in credibility
in the
past.

So has the CIA and MI5...

So what? Whatever their assessements are they aren't being posted here.
Debka's was, and this the same organisation that claimed during the Afghan
War that the Chinese were going to help Osama evade the Americans. The
same
Chinese who suffer from their own separatist problems in the Muslim areas
of
China, including Islamists favourable to bin Laden. Other Debka material
I've seen has been equally wonky. I'll certainly criticise any
intelligence
agency material that might be posted if I find it questionable.

The same China that plans joint operations with India.
