Besides this, there's also the questions of when these documents were written and the actual legitimacy of them.

Based upon that logic as applied to the 60 minutes piece, then the US should also be declared a terrorist nation because the United States was the largest supplier of IRA weapons and money. Therein lies the problem with such blanket conclusions.
Iran is a country with two separate and competing governments. One that is democratically elected by a vast majority of the people, and the other that is extremist and openly supports overseas terrorists. This can be too complex for George Jr, but it should be obvious to those in the Cellar that Iran is as guilty of terrorism as any nation with the mafias. Do we therefore declare Italy or Russia as terrorist nations?
Support from the Iraqi government? Probably. They will export foreign aid just as we do under the title of military aid.
But the legitimacy of those 'captured' documents is questionable. This is an Israeli government run by a man with no ethics. A man who will do anything to advance himself and his causes including a massacre of 5,000 women and children and maybe even a massacre of Egyptian prisioners of war. Not to mention take the entire world to the brink of WWIII. Or to attack another nation in direct contradiction of orders from his Prime Minister.
Sharon wants the US to attack every Arab nation that might impeded his Pax Israel policies. He wants desperately to drag the US military into major Middle East conflicts since that instability would be only to his advantage. Forgeries of documents? Considering Sharon's history, that would be as innocent as Mother Theresa.
Why would Israelis fear having a US reporter touch C4 when the Isreali soldier had no fear of pressing it even to his body? Had this been the Israel of Peres, then evidence would have credibility. The fact that a reporter could not touch C4 would not be so suspicious - except that Sharon is the Prime Minister.
Sharon's government that cannot be trusted with any facts that might take the world into worldwide conflict for Israel's self serving benefit. Remember the objectives of Sharon. He wants the US military in action in the Middle East. US soldiers dying for the greater good of Israel, to Sharon, is a good thing. More US combat divisions is the better, as far as Sharon is concerned. This was be devestating to the US. But US credibility and integrity is of no concern to Sharon. A US military that might weaken any Arab nation is, to Sharon, in the best interest of Sharon. Until all those documents are released immediately to an honest government, then they will always be suspect as forgeries.
