It's trying to strengthen an argument with unsubstantiated proof. They should have to name them and invite them into the conversation to make their case. Chases are they are the cousin of someone brother-in-law in another state that knows someone who was in the same town as the person who made the claim.

So ask them who these people are and if they would be willing to convince you that they are eye witnesses to seeing WMDs in Iraq that weren't already tagged by the inspection teams. (You have to cover all bases with these people. Yeah there were chemical weapons in Iraq but they were tagged and secured until Dumya and company destroyed the country.
