Reply #34: I'd wondered the same, lol! And what's with the "bad intell" votes???

A whole lotta people KNEW before the invasion that the intell DID NOT say "there was no doubt".

The October 2002 NIE had dissenting opinions from real experts on every single "WMD" claim.

Drones? Bullshit, said the top expert on drones, the USAF.

Tubes? Bullshit, said the top expert on centrifuges, the DOE.

Nukes? Bullshit, said the IAEA.

"Yellowcake"? Bullshit forgeries, said everyone including the CIA.

Chem/bio agents? We dunno, said the CIA. NO, said UNMOVIC.

Tenet himself under oath testified in 2002 that the "threat from Iraq is LOW".

There was no "bad intell". The intell on the October 2002 NIE was correct. There was, however, an incredibly bad, corrupt asshole in the White House and his State-owned MSM.
