Wasn't aware of suppression leading to GW2, but would believe.

However, this round is about diplomatic gossip! I know what they gossip about,
and it's not much different from (good) pub gossip, and is a reasonable reflection
of reality - not confirmed as truth, but reasonable, not validated, but what the
parties are probably using to make their decisions. Certainly stronger intelligence
that "weapons of mass destruction", which _apparently_ was the justification
for GW2.

What WL adds beyond the gossip, is the source of the gossip and some cred
about the content (because of source). Eg, if Hilary or Rice mumbled it,
 it doesn't make it true, but it makes it a loud part of the game.
