read the latest edition of the New Yorker...
Bush is basically fucked...they went for an easy reason to attack Iraq WMD/terror...it turns out Chalabi basically created all the evidence we had, and he fed allies like Germany defectors to back up the information he was giving us intel sources.
So, there was basically one source for global info on the iraqi wmd threat...Chalabi.
Bush & Co. removed anyone who disagreed with the intel they received from INC/Chalabi sources.
WMD was chosen to "sell" the war, even though there were other valid reasons...but now we basically see we had one intell source that was manufacturing evidence and feeding it to everybody....
The CIA strongly disagreed with the validity of the sources, but shit rolls down hill.
