US went to war on a lie, Senate report says |
US went to war on a lie, Senate report says
By DOUGLAS JEHL
New York Times News Service
WASHINGTON - In a scathing, unanimous report, the Senate Intelligence
Committee said Friday (Saturday in Manila) that the most pivotal assessments
used to justify the war against Iraq had been unfounded, unreasonable and
reflected major missteps on the part of American intelligence agencies.
The detailed, 511-page report, the result of a yearlong review, found in
particular that the stark prewar judgment by American intelligence agencies
that Iraq possessed chemical and biological weapons had not been
substantiated by the agencies' own reporting at the time.

They Knew...
Despite the whitewash, we now know that the Bush administration was warned

U.S. Report Finds Iraq Was Minimal Weapons Threat in '03
By DOUGLAS JEHL
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6 - Iraq had essentially destroyed its illicit weapons
capability within months after the Persian Gulf War ended in 1991, and its
capacity to produce such weapons had eroded even further by the time of the
American invasion in 2003, the top American inspector in Iraq said in a
report made public today.

The New York Times News Service frames the problem as being the fault
of "American Intelligence agencies". The News Service of Record simply
refuses to place the problem where the problem belongs: with Bush.
Bush wanted nothing from the intelligence agencies but what he wanted
to hear, and the NYT blames the intelligence agencies, all of whom
serve at the President's discretion.
What happened to journalistic guts? Is the Fox News Disease contagious?
