This is the bs that trashed our economy and caused the current ISIS and European refugee debacle. This is why America needs Rand or Ron Paul, though it may be too late...

“Our assessments rely heavily on analytic assumptions and judgment rather than hard evidence. The evidentiary base is particularly sparse for Iraqi nuclear programs.”

Regarding the actual programs, it says:“We’ve struggled to estimate the unknowns. … We range from 0% to about 75% knowledge on various aspects of their program…Our knowledge of the Iraqi (nuclear) weapons program is based largely—perhaps 90%—on analysis of imprecise intelligence.”


When forwarding the report, Air Force Maj. Gen. Glen Shaffer answered Rumsfeld’s original question by noting,
We don’t know with any precision how much we don’t know.

George Bush really ought to pay for this. Is it too late to charge him with something? And on the same year that his brother will go down in flames in the primaries...

There is no statute of limitations on war crimes. Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld all should face charges.

Oh, give me a break.

Somebody doesn't know that GWB and [gasp!] Democrats relied on intelligence with respect to WMD. The difference, of course, is that Republicans aren't looking to hold Hillary Clinton, Kerry, Pelosi et.al. responsible for that.

It's nice to know who the partisan hacks are. As usual, it's the Democrats.

Was that report also shared with some intelligence committee or another on the Hill at the time? If so, that's why Congress most likely isn't going to go after former WH staff over it.

Someone doesn't realize that the info Dems were given came from Bush and Company which were blatant lies.

That is a good point.

Could the Democrats in good faith go after Bush for this while at the same time voting for Hillary who knew of this report BEFORE she VOTED FOR the war?

Political elites like Hillary/Bush are largely unaccountable.

And who suffers? We all do. Partisan games are destroying us.
