Curveball (informant)


 

Curveball was the designation for a claimed "Iraqi chemical engineer" who the United States claimed had served as an "informant." "Curveball" would be the attributed "source" of pivotal information concerning weapons of mass destruction leading up to the 2003 Invasion of Iraq. The name "Curveball" is a reference to a curveball baseball pitch, which is US English slang for something that behaves indirectly, erratically, or surprisingly.
