Threats And Responses: Documents;Forensic experts uncovered forgery on Iraq, an Inspector says

The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency said that the forgery in a document intended to show Iraq trying to buy uranium from Niger was discovered by forensic experts. The agency's director said the experts found anomalies in the signatures, the letterhead and the format of the document. The forgery had been compared with authentic documents provided by Niger. The agency's director said that any number of groups would have had an interest in planting the document, which he said came from several sources.

Fistly, I think it is great that the author found a topic that connects forensic science with one of the most important issues facing the United States today. Next, the summary of the article was very brief and kept my attention. Lastly, the author talked about specifics, like the International Atomic Energy Agency.
To improve, perhaps the author could have given his opinion on the matter. Also, maybe some expert quotations could have been used.
I had no idea that documents between Niger and Iraq are currently being forged.

This article is so great because Martin was able to connect a forensic article to a very important issues to our country. Though this summary was on the shorter side, he was still able to pin at key points that appear within the article.
This article was over all very good, however it may have been better to make the summary a little longer in order to include even more details, or even an elaboration of his opinion on the subject. Good Work!

You did a good job on the article, staying straight to the point is really important when you are summarizing an article so you dont include any unecessary details. Good job on picking out an interesting article.
