Report: Iraq intelligence 'dead wrong'
WMD panel to present findings to Bush
Thursday, March 31, 2005 Posted: 10:04 AM EST (1504 GMT)

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The U.S. intelligence community was "simply wrong" in its assessments of Iraq's weapons of mass destruction capabilities before the U.S. invasion, according to a panel created to study those failures and recommend corrections to prevent them in the future.

"We conclude that the intelligence community was dead wrong in almost all of its prewar judgments about Iraq's weapons of mass destruction," said a letter from the commission to President Bush. "This was a major intelligence failure."

The panel -- called the Commission on the Intelligence Capabilities of the United States Regarding Weapons of Mass Destruction -- formally presents its report to Bush on Thursday morning.

An October 2002 National Intelligence Estimate warned that Iraq was pursuing weapons of mass destruction, had reconstituted its nuclear weapon program and had biological and chemical weapons.

The Bush administration used those conclusions as part of its argument for the March 2003 invasion of Iraq.

But the Iraq Survey Group -- set up to look for weapons of mass destruction or evidence of them in the country -- issued a final report saying it saw no weapons or no evidence that Iraq was trying to reconstitute them.

The commission's report said the principal cause of the intelligence failures was the intelligence community's "inability to collect good information about Iraq's WMD programs, serious errors in analyzing what information it could gather and a failure to make clear just how much of its analysis was based on assumptions rather than good evidence."

"The single most prominent a recurring theme" of its recommendations is "stronger and more centralized management of the intelligence community, and, in general, the creation of a genuinely integrated community, instead of a loose confederation of independent agencies."

Bush appointed the nine-member commission led by Laurence Silberman, a senior federal appellate court judge who also served in the Nixon and Ford administrations, and former Sen. and Virginia Gov. Chuck Robb, a Democrat.

FunForOne · 03-31-2005, 09:59 AM

The majority of Anti Americans both Domestic and Foriegn choose to believe that 9/11 was the first attack on the World Trade Centers.

They also choose to forget that the mastermind arrived in the U.S. with a visa from what country???????

Do you subscribe to that whacked out and debunked theory Wolfowitz and a few of the other neocons believe in?

Cassie · 03-31-2005, 10:32 AM

correct me if i am wrong here.....reporting within the admin caused a communication breakdown within the admin which allowed 911 to happen. then, a year later, false reporting created yet another communication failure within the admin which caused the strike on iraq.

am i reading into this incorrectly?

TheLegacy · 03-31-2005, 10:39 AM

hey .. its america.. they can do whatever the hell they want since according to them.. they are saving and protecting all our asses. So what if they invade a country with information and those that did it get medals instead of their jobs cut and formally charged.. its america. Who cares that the president will be found to be behind it.. its america.. they can get away with it because they have protected all our asses.

Im kinda feeling that maybe the world can do without americas protection... we'd have alot more peace on earth and good will towards men

SomeCreep · 03-31-2005, 10:48 AM

Well, at least it wasnt too big of a mistake. It only cost us about $5,000,000,000 dollars and over 1000 US lives.

Just like when they passed the patriot act when Saddam was captured they like to divert attention

MGibson · 03-31-2005, 09:13 PM

Study on CNN showed that 64% of Americans over 18 believe that Sadaam Hussien was reposnsible for the world trade centers, most common answer given ?

"That is why we are in Iraq right now"
