Here’s A Shock
Phase 2 of the Senate Intelligence Committee’s report on prewar intelligence in Iraq has finally been released and it would seem that some Administration claims could not be supported by the intelligence.
Despite the claims of Dick Cheney and several of the usual suspects at SA that Muhammad Atta met with Iraqi intelligence in 2001, the meeting could not be verified by American intelligence.
Despite statements by the President and the Vice President indicating that Saddam Hussein was prepared to give WMD to terrorist groups for attacks against the United States, the actual intelligence contradicted that possibility.
I suppose they had their reasons for making unsubstantiated statements or perhaps the statements can be substantiated through avenues other than American intelligence but such behaviour seems a little reckless to me.
