Reply #5: It was at best a half assed job, and he knew it going in

It was not possible to do an accurate job since he was not going to have access to critical data. He knew it and went ahead anyway as documented in Appendix II. He has also admitted that in a court of law there, no one would have been convicted based on what he reported. Like most western governments the US is not taking his report seriously, and given its flaws, nor should anyone else.

The on going smackdown on him is curious. Some claim its because Israel is concerned his report has traction. Others say its to insure that the message is clear...do a unsupportable hatchet job on Israel and you will be publicly pilloried. Probably some of both.
